The Chevrolet Camaro Z28 SS for 2002
A lot has been said about the Chevrolet Camaro for 2002. As Chevrolet's entry in the convertible market the Camaro (and in this case specically the Z28 SS version) has maintained a solid reputation. The 2-door Camaro is especially appealing to wide market segment, making it a perfect car to help Chevrolet as a brand in general.
Performance
The restyled Camaro Z28 SS is equipped with a General Motors 5.7-liter 8-cylinder engine that utilizes a total of 16 valves. The Chevrolet engine is paired with a General Motors 4-speed transmission. This configuration has proven to be a successful design for Chevrolet.
Fuel is handled for the Camaro is a SFI design, running on gasoline fuel. The gasoline is managed by an electronic system and is a fuel-injected MFI design. The capacity of the fuel tank is 16.80 gallons.
The Camaro uses power-assisted brakes, with 4-Wheel ABS support. The front brakes are disc while the rear brakes are disc. Steering is handled through a power-steering rack-style configuration. The car uses coil and coil springs front and rear respectively.
Camaro Z28 SS Statistics
The dimensions of the Camaro Z28 SS are 74.10 inches wide by 193.50 inches long. It sits a comfortable 51.80 inches off the ground. It seats a standard four passengers, with 2 doors. The wheelbase of 101.10 allows for limited leg room for the backseat passengers.
The original manufacturer suggested retail price (MSRP) was $29,925 when new, with a dealer invoice cost of $27,381. This price was in line with the industry average price for a 2-door Convertible.
The standard warranty period for the Camaro is 36 months, or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first. The warranty also includes a warranty on the drivetrain for 36 months or 36,000 miles respectively. This is standard in the convertible market. Extended warranties are also available through the dealer.
