Crap...from time to time? We drive our crown vic's hard. I can't imagine if we had Camaro's. There's probably a good reason we don't.......

I drive my Lincoln Town Car harder than I drive the Z28. You have to to make it feel like it's moving.
I would wager that 99.9% of cops don't run them as hard as if I had owned it 100,000mi.

I'm pretty late in getting these up, hasn't been a real priority.
Not a big deal, but interesting to look at if you're a car nerd like me.

i once saw an article where a cop ramed his B4C into a steel barrel to demonstrate the reinforced body, whats the deal with that?

I don't reccomend that. It's as flimsy as any other camaro.
It's a standard Z28, really.

I got a 98 B4c back in 2002. (probably fromt he same guy you bought yours from, in st pete?)

I drove the **** out of it to 171k miles and sold it last week to a moderator on here. It was a good car.

thats what i assumed as well, but it was only paint damage on the front, the bumper wasnt even dented, it was some police officer demonstrating the reinforced bumper of his b4c camaro....

guess just his was that way?
