Thanks for posting this...Its fun reading the reviews and seeing how cutting edge things may have been at the time. Camaro came within a hair's breadth of being MT's Car of the year in 1993, losing out to--of all things--the ford Probe.

kick Z tail out

Well it's true... The 3rd gen ran 10 model years.


Great article... Making me all nostalgic. I remember reading it.


I think I'll go drive my car.

lol..I wonder what MT said about Firebird.

Probably never even tested one.

I liked the part about the Camaro's breaking...

"The ABS fortified Z28 grippied the earth like it had hit a patch of epoxy; 60-0mph in 112 feet and arrow straight. Only a handful of production cars on the planet can beat it"

sorry for the late reply, I didn't know you responded to me. But I will look for the 2 mags and take a picture of both of them and email them to you this weekend.

I was looking at that, too. Makes me ill. I remember reading that article when it came out and thinking how someday I'd be able to afford a $20,000 car (I was junior in college at the time). Doesn't seem possible that was 13 years ago. My current Vibe daily driver cost more than that! Hopefully the next Camaro will represent the same performance bargain for the dough. The 1993 Z was a heck of a lot of car for the money - even though I couldn't afford one at the time.

I still remember seeing a 4th gen Z28 for the first time, pulling out of a local business. It looked so amazing to me. Agressive, sleek, just one baaaad ride. It really stood out to me. I knew I had to have one. The rest is history...

I looked at a black 93 cobra about 5 years after they came out. It was still 15K. I'll get flamed for this but if I was going to have to pick I would have taken the 93 Cobra back then just for it's rareness, the fact the badge really meant it had some serious upgrades(heads, cam, intake) and not just a K&N and an muffler (slp ss) But then 93-97 camaro's look SO plain to me.
Also a gear swap in the cobra and disconnected H-pipe put the cobra nicely in the 13's

I think I have to agree. Both are awesome, but the 93 Cobra was just so cool.

To each there own......no flame needed

I think SN95's are pretty good looking stangs, the fox's are ok,

but for me the car of the 0's int he LT1 Camaro

turbo96z28

cool

that was a great read. nice to see an article by MT that, how should I put it... doesnt sound like today's MT articles

Looking at pics from when the early 4th gens were brand new make me sad. Why didn't GM use better brackets or something for the front and rear bumpers? Mine both sag now-a-days, and that one in the article has ZERO panel gap

I WANT THAT!

That's a very cool read.

I appriciate the find.
