New to Cars, Camaros, and CF

My name is brock from the Orlando area (yes disney) florida. Im 16 years old (nearly 17) and will be getting my license soon (i waited a looong time for my permit)...

anyway, i didn't think much of cars besides they got you from one place to another, yeah i wanted one, but i really wasn't too picky.

Then...i went to a drag race down at orlando speed world. I got the crash course in cars, racing, and mechanics, and fell in love with Camaro's. American Muscle FTW!

I have a part time job and am looking to buy a used Camaro for under $5,000. Im not too specific on terms of Auto/Manual, V6 or V8, etc.

I know i want something with under 100k miles, something that i can pay off easily, and something that doesn't kill insurance rates. (no im not spoiled, i have to pay for everything)

Take a look at these few links of Camaro's near me and let me know if there are any details about the Model Year, etc. that i need to know before going and test driving.

Any help will be appreciated!

Im sure you can find a LT1 Z28 for around $5K .. 94-97 ... And that bodystyle in manual is a 6 Speed witch is always fun, I drive an auto myself, But i also like the whole Stall Converter, And B&M Ratchet Shifter idea :p

You really like the color white ......... don't you ?!?!?

haha i guess it seems that way, but there are no black camaro's for sale in my area, and all the colors f/s are ugly in my opinion.

EDIT: nvm.

^that one wouldnt kill insurance, but the first one is more powerful.

All of them are nice , just get one that is in your price range plus don't forget about paying for insurance !!

if your looking for farly cheap insurance and easy on gas than gi with a v6... they still have quite a bit of power and you can always do some easy upgrades to make it even better


oh btw my names brock to im 16 and out of the dallas/fort worth texas area... i was kinda the same way... once i saw camaros i was hooked
