Correction, the Catfish 93-02 fourth gen Camaros put the name in the grave.
The Third gens were on rails! Out-handled the Porsches, Lambos and Ferraris from that era.
Also took design cues from the Ferrari F40.
Best car I ever had. Still have, 14 years later. Cummins Turbo; 21psi of boost on a stock v6! (I built the wiring harness and ECM from scratch. Built the transmission and rear end, lowered it and did suspension work. Built the whole turbo setup myself, full 3 inch single exhaust from the turbo back). I couldn't afford a first gen, this was my first car. Mine is the red and black one. I'm a sucker for these lines.

Holset HX35W Turbo

Ditched the distributor and went with triple coil pack DIS ignition

Just something about those lines. Red one next to mine has an LS6 with an LSX supercharger, Purple one is also an LS, with a Magnussen supercharger

Plus, who can forget about Knight Rider? That was a Trans-Am; but same decade and bodystyle.

One day mine will have an all aluminum 5.7 LS truck engine and a T56 manual transmission. The entire aluminum LS weighs less than the cast iron v6!
