2004 SVT Cobra - yes it was much faster than this Camaro, but I don't care!

I had a 2000 model V6 Camaro. I loved that car. Bought it new in Jan 2000. Drove her for 132000 miles until it developed a head gasket leak. At that point, sadly, I had to sell it because the repair would have cost more than the car was worth. On the bright side, I found my 45th and pulled the trigger.
Before my 2000, I had an '83 RX-7. Really fun little car. The thing cornered like a go cart and had some pretty good pep. It was slowly falling apart, though, and had a slow oil leak at the rear seal. The final straw for it was when I went over a railroad track and the rear view mirror fell off of the windshield, and swung by the power wire for the map light and smacked me right between the eyes. Ha.
first car: 1981 Honda Accord. Paid $600 for it in '93. It sucked. Nuff said.

I have to ask because I have often wondered, how does the power and acceleration of your 2LT compare to your '94 Z-28?

1998 Ford Explorer Limited. Had it about 4 years and by the time it got sold it had over 270,000 miles. Still ran like a champ after replacing the spark plugs and wires. Exterior and interior weren't much though, lol. The sunroof leaked directly into the middle of both front seats and the a/c didn't work. But it never broke down and got me around high school and part of college until the Camaro took over.
