1992 Chevy Camaro RS Convertible Review - The Power Of Paint Colors! 

That color is my favorite of the GM palette of colors.

“Heartbeat” license plate and this car in general makes me think gta vice city

Love Gen III Camaros. Nothing else holds that 80's feeling of "As American decay seems inevitable, let's do it with style" better.

I always liked the rubic cube tailights on these Camaros.

That's the cleanest RS I've seen. Beautiful.

For people who are not from USA, this car remind us to the old cars of Grand theft auto games 😂

i used to have a 1987 camaro convertible when I was 18 years old. I got it for 6.5k in 1995 money.. I think they only made 2000 in 1987 and they were coach built. But a cool thing you can do is fold down the back seats and sit on top. Great for driving in a parade carrying the festival queen or country cruising. Prob not safe - so do that at your own risk

Gen 3 with T tops was my favorite

I’ve see several comments about a carburetor. The last year for a carburetor from the factory was 1987 on the 5.0 HO. Everything after that was TBI or TPI. Yes a carburetor is a carburetor and Throttle body injection is fuel injection. Don’t let some bozo tell you otherwise.

I've *always* loved the body lines of this car!

I’ve loved third gen Camaros, my good buddy in high school had a 1986 Z-28 with the 305 and TPI and I loved that thing. I’ve gotta say, the old school 4 spoke GM steering wheel it had looked so much sharper than that bread loaf airbag wheel that doesn’t match the lines of the interior at all. That said, this 92 RS Convertible is gorgeous.

This color was big in the early 90"s. A friend of mine had a late 80's or early 90's corvette and painted it this teal green color. I like the Z28 tail lights on this car , always did. The RS came with a different style tail light. It had a solid black stripe in the center and the color portion of the lights were solid , not cubed. They started using the cubed style tail lights in 1985 on the Z28. I had a 1984 Z28 with the High Output motor and 5 speed manual. I wanted to change out my tail lights to the cubed style , but sold the car before doing so.

That colour on the model, looks so damn good 👌

Wow, that looks amazing, just needs some pink 90s flash stripes and square exhaust tips

2 things I don't see on the road anymore. Convertibles and Cool colors from the factory.

I think the ramble about the Midwest is 100 percent correct, I lived in Illinois for most of my life in Naperville.

My cousin has a Cavalier of the same era in the same color. Beautiful.

Love everything about this!

here in europe we love a lot this generation of camaro

The front ends on these are timeless. I remember when my sister bought one new in 1991. It only had a V6 but was still a cool ride. Hers was more of a true blue.

I can almost like that era Camaro hearing you describe it, but unfortunately I knew too many camaro owners back in the day so it's forever tarnished. That color does look great on it though, and I don't like teal normally.

This thing could not be more 90s, especially without the "heartbeat of America" license plate in the front

Such cars and narrations is why i subscribed to this channel

Brings me back to Jeremy Clarkson's RS camaro

I love how the owner even though he lives in Illinois has a license plate frame from a dealership in LA (shout out to Felix Chevrolet in Los Angeles, CA near USC)

No hate on the Camaro, but I loathe convertibles, no matter what brand or model. If this were a hard top car instead, I would love it. That color with those wheels and the TBI V8 would be great. I always preferred the throttle body fuel injection system over the tuned port injection system. I feel that it was just an easier system to deal with. Granted, I worked on a lot of Chevy pickup trucks back in those days that had that system so I'm very well versed with the throttle body injection system. I probably would swap in the truck 350 with throttle body injection, which produced almost as much horsepower as the tuned port injection 350 with more low RPM torque and much less complexity. Then, it would be a bit of a sleeper. I would like this car even more if it had a 5-speed. I also always preferred the RS version of the car over the Z28 in those years as far as looks are concerned.

I had a 89 RS Convertible with the same 5.0 V8 automatic transmission. Overdrive transmissions were a big fancy new thing in the 80s and early 90s. Same with fuel injection. Hence sports cars and luxury sedans had goofy badges telling you how futuristic they were over the boring carburetor dinosaurus on the road.

I agree, 3rd gen was the best. That color!!!

Such a clean example but that aftermarket headunit really detracts from it Really don't understand why people feel the need to swap something like that in

Man i still remember driving that black 89 camaro wen i use to wor for my moms ex boyfreind he did emissions badas car had the 5.0 as well simple motor to get u here and there

Wish they would’ve brought back the Camaro emblem for the newer gen cars. Gives it so much character. Spent so much time as a kid looking at my older brother’s wanting my own someday

That’s my favorite Camaro & love that color

Amazing color and stance!

I had the 1995 version of that exact color Camaro convertible. Fun car, sorta crummy paint jib.

Please give power numbers in the future

What a beautiful car. Thank you for sharing.

To be honest, I think the 1985 IROC-Z gauge cluster was better. Looks cleaner and easier to read.

My father would order cars for smaller Chevrolet dealerships from the ‘60’s to the ‘90’s. The more base Camaros were extremely popular with middle aged women. They sold huge numbers to Linda from HR, so the options and colors reflected that market. The base V8, or V6, and an automatic was what she wanted for lower payments and insurance.

I have no idea what I'm about to get into. My dad no longer wants his so he gave me his RS project car. Its a manual and needs some work. Just perfect timing lol

What an incredible leap in design, this unit is beautiful but its lines scream 85 more than 92. The next year's is a completely different car, in just one year, it jumped about 10 years in terms of design. The catfish is strange and It doesn't look like a Camaro, but I think it's beautiful and this '92 RS is something curious, like a somewhat old-fashioned rockstar but that still dazzles, although due to his crazy pace of life, the guy believes the 80's aren't over yet.

Hallo Zack, I really enjoy your videos, especially the ones about oldies but... please, please change that intro jingle. Hit hard and take car man.

3:49 - This section screams everything wrong with GM cars of the era (every one of them and well into the 2000s): "WE'RE GENERAL MOTORS AND WE COULDN'T CARE LESS ABOUT MAKING NICE INTERIORS."

still, third best looking Camaro generaiton

Love your content. But how come you never film yourself a pov driving the car?

I had no idea that those were manual tops.

man that stereo is hella expensive, wonder why he put that in there

Not a bad-looking car, especially in that color. Camaros are cheap fun. What's up with the windshield though, it looks really dark. Maybe it's because the rest of the car is open to the Sun that the glass looks so dark. That airbag wheel doesn't really mesh with the early 80s rectangularness of the interior.

Second gen is my favorite.

I prefer 2nd gen Camaros myself. But I wouldn't pass up a 3rd gen.

So sweet!

04:08 BIG FRIGGIN BOTTLE FAIL!!!

gen 3's make me blush

This is odd... a 1992 should have a TPI (Tuned port injection) engine while this one shows it has a carburettor. I love the 3rd Gen Camaro. My brother had one when I was young and I did drive it a bunch. It was a 1987 IrocZ, 5.0 TPI with the 5 Speed. The 91 and 92 RS have a much nicer dash and gauges. The 5 Speed Manual doesn't feel lazy at all. Feels like it has a bit of brutality to it. Power wise I am pretty sure the 5.0 tpi has around 205HP and more respectable TQ figures while the 5.7 has like 30HP more and more tq. Both can gain a lot out of simple mods like intake and exhaust. One of my goals is to eventually find myself a 1987-92 Camaro with a 5.0TPI, T-Top and 5Speed.

Don't you be mistaken, people WILL race you at red lights in that convertible V8. They don't care you cruisin.

Is that actual HI8 or just a filter it looks worse than actual HI8 lol nice color

Nice 😊

Nice

😻😻😻

Also, the 95-05 Cavaliers seats are flat and slightly off center. Awful.

is that car overheating or just a broken gauge?

What size are the wheels

can't put a cow on its roof if there's no roof

You always do a great job with your narrative and video, This car is really great looking except for the engine bay. You would think the owner would at least do some cosmetic cleaning to bring it some what up to the rest of the cars appearance, It is a cool cruiser that I think anyone would enjoy driving while getting thumbs up from pedestrians and passengers in other cars.

The carburettor is proof that the engine is probably not from the 90's. Most cars from this era had fuel injected engines.

That doesn't seem like the correct engine for that car. My friends and i owned all sorts of camaros in the late 80s and every V8 i saw was already fuel or throttle body injected. Find it hard to believe they went back to a carburated engine in the 90s

no airbag actually 4th generation camaro😮

Well, that interior is so cheap as if it belongs to the garbage truck.

You never ever see these cars on the road.
