2001 Chevrolet Camaro SS

Description

With its aerodynamic and eye-catching fourth generation Camaro form, powerful and smooth-functioning drivetrain, and a nice array of creature comforts, this 2001 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 SS is a real blast to drive and will pull into its next owner's garage with a clean history report in tow, ready to supply plenty of miles of road-bound fun.

More than 15 years have elapsed since it first put rubber to asphalt, but this Chevy still packs a lot of visual punch with its agile-looking form. Sitting low to the ground, with a strong incline to its windshield, you can see how slippery it is when speeding forward into the wind. From the gradual taper and smoothly-shaped hood scoop in front, to the distinctive center placement of its oval shaped dual exhausts in back, this car shows a lot of style, accentuated in dramatic fashion by its black color and contrasting "SS" emblems on its front fenders and rear end that still have sharp edges and stand out from their background. The Super Sport designation itself provides this Camaro with a number of upgraded styling cues, the most obvious being the arc-shaped wing residing on its deck lid to add downforce. Its t-top configuration is a great feature, affording the option of open air driving when you so choose, but with easily installed protection from the elements in less forgiving weather just a moment away.

Climb inside and you'll see a stylish black leather interior that remains in good shape to provide a welcoming driving environment. The front bucket seats have done an admirable job of retaining their original form over the years and provide a good blend of support and well-padded comfort, while the seating in back shows very little evidence of use altogether. One decided advantage that the more modern, post millennium muscle cars have over earlier incarnations lies in the number of creature comforts they offer, and those benefits are all on display here, including air conditioning that's blowing nice and cold, a tilt column, power seats, windows and door locks, cruise control and an AM/FM/CD player that stands ready to cater to your audio needs. As an added measure of safety, this Camaro is also equipped with both driver and passenger side air bags. The anti-theft device is certainly an added bonus, and a great thing to have in a car that's as sure to attract attention as this one is. The storage area in back provides a lot of welcome space and is lined with fresh-looking carpet showing nary a stain.

Having logged only 70,000 miles in its lifetime, and carrying a smooth-running and powerful drivetrain, this pedigreed Chevy is very much up to the challenge of frequent or even daily driving. A 5.7 liter LS1 sits under its lengthy hood, running strong and packing in excess of 300 horsepower. It's paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission whose overdrive gear provides fuel-efficient, engine-sparing low revs during highway driving. By virtue of its SS configuration, this Camaro also benefits from a slightly firmer suspension over other Z/28s to decrease body roll while carving corners, as a well as a more free-flowing and efficient exhaust system. It's a sharp looking, fourth generation Camaro - and it sits on a set of 17" stock Z/28 wheels, outfitted with BF Goodrich tires.

Looking for a fun to drive performance car that comes from just the right era to provide some nostalgic cache but is still modern enough to offer a host of welcome features? You really need to see this 2001 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 SS. Call today!
