1992 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 5 Liter 25th Anniversary in Red & Ride on My Car Story with Lou Costabile

[@loucostabile]

Hi, If you like this video, please click on SUPER THANKS ❤ with the $ in the middle which is the SUPER THANKS button under the video. Thank you! Lou

[@islanddon865]

What a gift. I had one of this Gen, but earlier. The z28 handled so much better than the previous Gen, it blew me away. Though my '86 only had a 305 C.I.D. and 215 HP, I quickly got it up to 300+ HP (Dyno'd) and it was a super daily driver and fun car. I love that design. It still makes me smile.❤

Great Camaro ! I had kind of forgotten how little they changed during that generation. Great example. Thanks Lou!

[@loucostabile]

Hi Jeff, Happy to read you enjoy this Camaro. 1985'-1993 seems the Camaro & Mustang stayed the same design and I'm sure that was all the American Auto Manufactures were saving money and keeping costs low. My pleasure sharing this one with you. You're welcome, Lou

[@mikeyb.3004]

Great car! Always loved this generation Camaro. I am a Mustang guy, but this body style stole the show during the '80s and early '90s. Thank you Karen and Lou!

[@loucostabile]

Hi Mikey B., Happy to read "Always loved this generation Camaro." :-) Good news! I have a few more of this generation coming up. You're welcome, Lou

[@JaimeSalcedoA_72]

What a beautiful style this 1992 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 "25th Anniversary" edition has with that spectacular Red Dark Metallic! This is one of the Camaro models that I like the most; the third generation that started from 1982 to 1992. I love that front with its double sunken square headlights, the large white stripes that run along the hood, its five-point star-style wheels and the spoiler adapted to the same rear trunk lid ( special mention, for the two removable transparent roof covers, to conveniently store them in that bag in the trunk). Pleasant interior combination of black, in the vinyl of the instruments, doors and carpets, with the gray of the sports seats. The final journey along those roads was excellent, with the sound of the wind and the engine! Congratulations to her owner Karen on this beauty, who is collectively celebrating two anniversaries! Best regards, Lou!

[@loucostabile]

You're right.

[@TheGunfighter45acp]

What a great car and a great car gal! This Z28 looks fantastic in this color and it's stripes. It has a nice rumble and plenty of power for a fun cruise or as a daily driver. It's definitely a win win situation when you own one of these. Thanks, Lou!

[@loucostabile]

Hi TheGunfighter45acp, Happy to read you enjoy this car and Caretaker :-) My pleasure sharing the rumble with you. You're welcome, Lou

[@swiderski231]

Thanks for sharing your pristine 25th anniversary, Camaro loved it..I grew up around Camaros as a kid. My family has always owned Camaros since the 1967. My Aunt as a kid, the same 25th anniversary Camaro, but hers was teal color with no t-tops. My dad drove me from the hospital when I was born in his 1987 burgundy Iroc in 1991 😊.

Nice Camaro. Just random thought...I do not recall any of your videos showing the underside of the cars you show. As beautiful as they are on top, maybe the bottom might also be beautiful.

[@loucostabile]

Hi Mr Repurpose, I have videoed the underside a few times (like this video), but not much interest. Lou kzbin.info/www/bejne/jHrHe6Kgpr1jqqs

[@brianmoore6306]

I'm a big fan of Z28s! I had a 1981 in green. Mine was a t-top too. they were very eash to remove and reinstiall. They were a lot of fun. Love the growl of the engine on this one. Dang, I miss that sound...my Ford Focus that I have now, hardly comapers! This is a great example of a Camaro from 1992 that has been preserved nicely. I've never seen the dash in such detail as in your video. Thanks so much for that. Back in the day, these were everywhere...maybe not the 25th Anniversary. I have never seen one of these before. thanks, Lou.

[@loucostabile]

Hi Brian, Happy to read "I'm a big fan of Z28s!" :-) Glad to read you have one too. Appreciate the details on the video you enjoy. You're welcome, Lou

[@ultraviolettp3446]

I have always liked this generation of Camaro/Firebird. Even with their quality and engineering issues, this was a beautiful design. Thanks for sharing a more modern vintage of car. I love how you span the beginnings of automobilia up through the 1990's. Most appreciated effort, Lou!

I don't see Z03 option code the stripes rear badge and blackout headlight buckets were added on. And this is also a RS car turned into a z28. Cool tribute. I knew the 5.0 high output decal on the ground effects something was different. Beautiful car none the less.

[@billmagorian490]

Lou this is such a beautiful clean car and optioned to the hilt. Her husband must really love her. I haven't watched this story to the end so you may ask the question but my first question would have been in addition to how long she has had it would be was it in this shape when her husband bought it? Horsepower was still anemic even in the 90's so I would also like to know what the HP is on this car.? Having said that even the most HP car of the 90's is going to seem wimpy compared to the cars today. Great find Lou! This car is a real cream puff!

[@loucostabile]

Bill, Happy to share this "real cream puff" with you :-) Lou

[@stevegordon5243]

My wife bought a brand new 89 Camaro RS right before we started dating. It was a royal blue color. Beautiful car but it only had a V6 and was such a dog. Was a decent car except that it was in the era that GM had paint problems and the factory paint peeled off. Under warranty, we had to have it repainted and the GM Dealer shop that repainted it didn't do a great job. We kept it for a few years after that and then sold it. Fun car to drive though

This car was born a brilliant red RS with the L03 170hp 305.

[@loucostabile]

Thank you for sharing.

[@toddprater14]

Yeah this ain’t no true z28…soon as I seen L03 I knew someone added that wing, the z28 badges … a real z28 in 91&92 has dual cats n10… option.. all z28’s in these last 2 years were tuned port injection not throttle body like this car… is a badged up rs…nice car, but not a z28..also the vin for that motor is e in the 8th position… yours says f which would be the 305 tpi motor… someone either swapped the vin stickers on the hood or maybe it originally was a 305 tpi ( code f)… but why does the spid sticker on rear locking storage compartment show l03. It would say lb9…. Something’s fishy about this car

[@1willubhave]

​@toddprater14 Yup, good catch...I looked the vin, it shows it to be a 1987, and the emission sticker shows it to be tpi...I think the sticker is wrong, and most of these camaros were stripped from their true vins when stolen. So this 1992 Camaro would fall as a 1992 Camaro RS 305tbi, 700r4, possibly 3.08 posi with rear drums. 1992 Z28 would be a 305/350tpi 700r4 or opt BW Tremec WC 5 speed (305tpi only), and a opt G80/G92 3.42 rear diff

[@johnhenrymcmahon6878]

Hey Lou!!!! I watched this truly awesome video yesterday and left you a pretty epic JV Johnny/Robin comment, but didn't hear back from my big bro! ?? But I don't see it here so maybe I didn't click "send"🤣😜?! Aw Jeez. I hope you see this one, doe. This Bitchin' Camaro just takes me right back to highschool and my JV baseball days with my boys in Ralphie's big bro's beat up brown '85 Berlinetta, in our tubesocked stocking feet (floppy sneakers and cleats thrown in the hatchback lol) and as the vehicle of choice on Halloween where I was ALWAYS Robin (Burt Ward's Robin) and STILL in my flesh colored stocking feet, a wiseass (tho always a lightweight 😂 and usually assigned to the backseat), chick crazy, irreverent working class American boy. I'm still that kid, tho middle aged🤣. This Camaro takes ya right back-it's perfect. But I have NEVER seen such a pristine example as Karen's gorgeous late model right here. That power hatch, those clear T-tops.....beautiful showpiece. Karen and her husband have a time capsule that Gen X can truly get behind. My floppy sneakers don't have a CHANCE of staying on my stocking feet, big bro. Esp. when I hear that exhaust rumble! Thanks for showcasing her, Lou. ⚾⚾ JV Johnny

[@plymouthduster225]

Beautiful Camaro Lou, I could have had one for my first car at 16, there was a 1992 Z28 about the same color as this at our local Chevrolet dealership it wasn't as nice as this one but it was only $2,500, thinking it was had like 180k miles was why the price was so low and my dad offered to buy it for me but I was really wanting a truck so I decided that I wanted to go look at it again and that I wanted it and it had been sold that morning while I was at school, but I ended up finding my Duster about 6 months later but I still kick myself for not getting that Camaro every time I seen one like it
