eBay spot with Viper stipes, Mustang wheels, and the black headlight surrounds painted in ,which IMHO looks wrong...

Also, it might be an optical illusion, but those wheels/tyres look to small too.....

Hmm, its a bit chavy and I don't like the white seats.
also what appears to be rust on the strut towers and firewall look slightly worrying, shame its a V6 too because those engines look silly in that engine bay

I remember Maxy P from issue 1.
It was a real good magazine back in those days.

Don't think the car is that bad, bad but not dire !

I'd be more worried about having a whole 2.8 litres to get it moving

Ditto.

I was saying to Chris at the weekend - the resessed headlights is what sets the third and early fourth gens apart from the other Camaro's.

They give the car an aggressive look . . painting them in looks nasty . . . IMO, of course.

My Old one had the recesses painted body coloured but I think it looked fine because it was a dark colour anyway.  New one has them Black

Agreed! The aggressive front end is what I like most about my 'maro...

Yeah the wheels are horrible and Philo's was the only white third gen I've ever liked the look of. White recesses look bad too.

Quite like the interior though. Proper pimp.

But 2 large for a V6 third gen ?!?!?

per-lease......

It would have to be mint.
