Hey everyone. I bought a used and slightly abused 2013 Camaro last September. It's a V6 Manual LS. Only 100 thousand miles. I'm a single mom with 4 kids, my youngest is non verbal, does not use the restroom, extremely hyper active, diagnosed with autism. I only throw this out because I bought the car because he's always liked fast cars, and he communicates via tablet like Bumblebee! Anyways he loves going fast, as do I. I also bought this beast because I am a single mom of 4 and I had been hired with a lumber mill where I have never felt so out of place in my entire existence, but I'm making 2 times the money I've ever made and it makes me feel like a baddy, having the car and job.
The comment about the car being slightly abused is referring ONLY to exterior cosmetics. Some of which did not cost a dime to correct and some that will require a bit of pocket change. The previous owner should have taken a nap every now and then to keep his thoughts from straying windward.😉
I am having an issue that I will post separately if anyone can spare some time and knowledge it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Astra1118

congrats on the car and job. focus on the positivity and you will go far.

for a new purchase I would recommend all new fluids: brake fluid, coolant, transmission, oil. also brake inspection, tires, engine air filter, spark plugs. youtube is a great plethora of free information.
