- On "My Car Story" we're in the Western Suburbs of Chicago IL on 6-9-24.
We're looking at a 1989 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 IROC in White Paint.
The car comes with the 5.7 Liter High Output V8 engine and an automatic transmission.
The car's Owner is Dawn. Dawn’s had this car since 2012. Dawn shares she likes when guys come up next to her and rev their engines. She said she’s not afraid to put the pedal to the floor and wave bye bye.
ENJOY! - Авто та транспорт
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
I liked when Dawn put her foot down while driving alongside the Challenger. This had the makings of one of the best videos ever.
NICE!
One of the best handling cars on the road in that era. I had an early iteration Z-28. I LOVED it then and still admire this design.👍
Happy to read "I LOVED it then and still admire this design" :-)
I like Dawn's style and her IROC.
Nice :-)
Very nice Camaro! I think the gen 3 F bodies are under appreciated tbh.
Thanks Dawn and Lou for letting us see this classic.
Hi Jeff, I was looking forward to a Gen 3 Camaro, and a bit surprised how long it took for me to find one that looked like it came from the factory. My pleasure sharing this one with you, and I agree, under appreciated. You're welcome, Lou
What a fantastic car and car custodian combo! I agree with Dawn that the interior looks great, and would suit either a car guy or a car gal in its color and design. The exterior paint looks great as well with the IROC-Z goodies. And what a fun test drive. Thanks, Lou!
Hi TheGunfighter45acp, Happy to read you enjoy this "fantastic car" :-) Glad you're along for the "fun test drive", Lou
I remember when those were new. While there were issues with the engineering, the car is one of the most beautiful of any GM's offerings. I had a friend who had one of these which had continual quality issues, but when it ran, it was stunning. Thanks for sharing, Lou!
Hi ultraviolet tp, Happy to read this car brings back memories of your Friends car :-) Thank you for viewing, sharing, and you're welcome, Lou
Will never forget when this generation Camaro came to market ( finally! ) and the just released Z/28 almost exactly like this one but two tone brown in color I believe was parked on a curb and WOW I stood there in awe, I was still driving my '68 Camaro but this new one knocked me off my socks. While some people remember clearly their first date or the moon landing, I remember the 3rd gen Z/28 in its new glory. This example courtesy of Lou and Dawn is just as nice, thank you, and I am a big fan. Thank you Dawn and Lou.
Hi Bruce H., High praise. You're welcome, Lou
As a teenager, I drooled over those IROC's. I remember the first one I ever saw was yellow. I was blown away at the styling. And I still love those cars!
Hi Well that's just great., Happy to read "I still love those cars!" :-) Lou
Lou - Great
Looking 1989 Camero. Brings back a lot of good memories. 😊
Robert - NICE! Happy to read this car brings back good memories :-)
"Nice country road (no speed limit signs), Dawn and hangin' out (no speed limit signs), it doesn't get much better than this (no speed limit signs)." Go, Lou!
Hi Anthony C, Good time for sure, and happy to share it with you, Lou
Thanks for the video and ride on the 1989 Iroc Z28 Camaro. This is a rear wheel traction real sports car. Congratulations to Dawn. You have one of the favorite classic fast cars loved by Chevrolet fans.
Hi Juan, You're welcome. My pleasure sharing this car with you, Lou
A true beauty, this 1989 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 IROC-Z in White! As I mentioned in the previous video, this is one of the generational designs that I like the most of the Camaro (from 1982 to 1992). I was desperate for you to show the front; until at minute 8:19, finally, you could see its slender and long hood, along with its black grilles, ending in that characteristic wedge shape with its double square headlights outlined in black! Of course the rear part is not far behind, with that large cabin that is part of the trunk lid, its curved spoiler and its beautiful, large squared rear guides. Magnificent interior color combination, with its red upholstered seats and carpets, and its simple, but beautiful, black instrument panel with that characteristic 80's design. I loved the well-preserved collection of manuals and brochures in the trunk. Although its 5.7-liter V8 engine sounded quite smooth, when its owner revved it, its chrome exhaust pipes roared with pleasure! Finally, the final drive on the highway was excellent, on a beautiful sunny day with the roof open... apart from the look on your face when they passed the Challenger! Ha ha. Oh, by the way, I don't know if you noticed it, but in the last shot, when the vehicle passes by, a rather curious effect was produced, since the five-pointed rings seem to move as if in frame by frame! Congratulations to its owner, Dawn! Best regards, Lou!
Hi Jaime, Happy to read you enjoy "A true beauty" :-) Glad to read the details you notice. Thank you for sharing, Lou
Wanted one of these when I was 18 back in 86 couldn’t afford it. Found an 89 Convertible back in 08 and still have it. It was definitely a must have car for my generation.
Hi Offthbadan, Happy to read you enjoy this car :-) Glad to read you have a fun car too, Lou
T-tops were wonderful. Loved mine on my '81 z28, though I had more room inthe trunk when my tops were stowed away, I was surprised how shallow thie trunk was here. But man alive when driving a Camaro, it just felt wonderful. This is a beautiful car. Back in the day we would see a lot of them. This is a really good example. Love the IROC-Z. Good color combination here too. The best part....is the rumble of the engine! That will never, ever get old!! The horsepower rating is 240.
Hi Brian, Happy to read this car brings back memories of your car :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
Few cars are considered iconic. This is it. Beautiful car for a beautiful woman. Love the owner and car combo. Best video you have ever done ❤️😻😍
High praise.
Dawn forgot to hit the Passenger Ejection Button out on the road! lol lol 😂
....I'm glad she missed that button!
That car is now considered a classic now I'm feeling my age cuz I remember when that car was new still a very nice car and I like it
Hi Larry, I guess I'm a "Classic" too :-)
🙋♂️THANKS LOU AND DAWN FOR SHARING HER IROC ,LOVE ❤️ THE T TOPS AND THE GUAGES and The details thanks to your new camera 📷 and it dawned ( pun intended ) on me to watch the commercials before 😁💚💚💚
Watching those commercials definitely helps :-) Thank you Budget Audiophile Life-long, and you're welcome.
@@loucostabile DEFINITELY WILL TRY TO REMEMBER THAT 👍💚💚💚
Thanks for a nice car video Lou and the Camaro Z28 owner Dawn.
You're welcome Mats. My pleasure sharing the car with you.
Very nice IROC always liked these Camaros. Just a sharp looking car with decent performance. Thanks Lou!
Happy to read you like these Camaros :-) You're welcome John!
That's one sweet IROC-Z. I loved driving them whenever I had the chance in my summer jpb at a Chevrolet, Cadillac dealership
Hi danam0228, Happy to share this "sweet" car with you :-) Lou
Even though these cars are not fast they put on a good show and sounds great when they are running lol
I agree.
This is a nice car Lou thanks for bringing it to us to see take care and God Bless.
You're welcome Leroy. Blessings received. God bless you.
Heartbeat of America 🇺🇸
:-)
Speed is not the point of this vehicle Lou, it is the experience. I mean even a Tesla model 3 can smoke your Viper these days. But it can never duplicate the experience. Same for this beauty.
Hi Paul, Well when you're with Dawn, seems speed is part of the experience :-)
Nice one a Joy to see
:-)
Lou always finds the blonds with the hot cars
:-)
Oh, my gosh! I had an Iroc in 1986 exactly like this one, except I had the 5.0 liter, and grey interior. Mine was even white with T-tops! A breathtaking video for sure! Thanks, Lou!
Hi JON, Happy to read this car brings back memories of your car :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
Very sweet exhaust. NICE!
:-)
Dawn the “Car Girl”! Fun girl and car!❤️👍
NICE!
Cool Car ... Cool Lady!
Win / Win :-)
Great video. I have a 70 Cyclone. There is a small group of 4 Cyclone owners within about a 50 mile area here. We enjoy getting together and going to car shows together. It's great to hear the comments about never seeing four 70/71 Cyclones in one place. One of the 4 is a girl. Her car was her dad's that he bought new. Her father has passed and she takes great pride in showing her dad's 71 Cyclone. It's great to see women getting involved in the classic car hobby. They are just as passionate as us. I think sometimes they are even more passionate. I LOVE it, "no messing with Dawn".
Hi Stacy, Happy to read you have a cool car. Glad to read the Daughter is proud of her dads car. NICE! Yes, I enjoy the women on the Channel sharing why they enjoy with their rides :-) Lou
I have always liked and wanted a 70-71 Cyclone.
great car of my era im in my late 50s but owned an 87 monte carlo back when also white with burgundy interior .great road handling for its time ! the 305 was just peppy enough . i wish i had it back, those doors tended to sag bad hinges

This is a great engine for this car (350 cubic inches) and made it a contender on the streets back in the day. I really wanted Chevy to drop this TPI 350 in the Monte Carlo SS but they never did☹☹☹.
Happy to read you enjoy this engine :-)
That's a real cool car I always like them cars also nice to see another car girl on the channel😊
Happy to read you enjoy this car :-) Yes, it's nice when the ladies enjoy the car too.
@1:50 - Paintless dent removal would bring that fender back to like new.
Thank you for sharing a tip.
Tuned Port cars, particularly the 350 versions, are known for making massive torque. I have the Vette version. They will really surprise other cars stoplight to stoplight.

Hi Mats, SUPER THANK YOU FOR THE SUPER THANKS! I appreciate the support, Lou
Hey big bro Lou!! Oh boy! What a B-B-B-B-BANGER, man!! What a BANGER courtesy of ol' Dawn there, man. She is awesome. And so is this IROC-Z. This is a car from my youth, Lou. And these were for the big Varsity football guys in my highschool. The pretty boy lightweight JV baseball (and Robin-like) guys like me would more be behind the wheel of a Berlinetta lol 🤣🤪. So my reaction to this super hot IROC? POW! KNOCKOUT. And ol' JV's floppy boys are fired off his tubesocked baseball stockinged feet as I fall forward, completely knocked out once again lol 😜. You catch my floppy sneakers like the champ you are and simultaneously bend forward to have me fall over your shoulder easily, my stocking feet 'n calves limply dangling, like the protective big bro you also are 🤣. Could you see that, Lou? The visceral reaction of a car and chick crazy JV baseball guy. The way you highlight a car and the meaning and story it has to it's owner is always inspiring, big bro. Mega fun. Thanks Lou! JV Johnny ⚾⚾
Hey JV Johnny, BANG BANG.....out got the lights :-) Happy to read this one is "Mega fun" :-) You're welcome, Lou
Nice 😊
Hi Michael, Happy to read you think this car is "Nice" :-)
nice camaro.
Hi Chris, Happy to read you enjoy this Camaro :-) Lou
Цікаве авто! Швидке! Я пам ятаю ці авто ще новими! Дякую!
Hi Сергій, Happy to read this brings back memories of when this car was new. You're welcome, Lou
Everyone has their own taste; for me the tape stripes and all of that are just juvenile. Same for excessive power; I've driven 1000 miles in a day in several of my cars. I wonder whether this Camaro could do that? I have a friend who had the 'normal' Camaro who loved taking Texas-length trips in his. And it's such a beautiful GT!
Hi LoveIsAll, Thank you for viewing and sharing your thoughts. Happy to read this brings memories of your Friends Camaro, Lou
What are you talking about? Stripes? Excessive Power?
Driving a 1000 miles a day?
A Camaro GT? 🤔
Let me guess. You own a Volvo,a Porsche, BMW 😂
I owned three different trailer park Camaros , two 83 Z 2/8's and a 92 RS that l put 276 thousand miles on it.

Hi Lou....if your ever over in E Central IA, I've got a 1 of 6 '02 RED Firebird Formula FIREHAWK that's minty fresh with 32k miles. I'd love to see ya and show you my car. Thanks!!!!!
Hi Rick, Sounds like a great car. If you're ever in the Western Burbs of Chicago, let me know, or if you see me at a car show, make sure to say hello and show me your car. Lou
I have the exact identical car. White red interior tea tops mine's got 77000. And I wouldn't trade it for a brand new corvette

They both have impressive front ends...
Gee Steveo.......
Couldn't find any reason to dislike ....
Nice :-)
Does Dawn know Karen (the maroon Camaro from last week)? they need to do a meetup.
They're Best Friends :-)
@@loucostabile
That's really cool, Lou!
PS-I never thought of a bisexual car! I do agree with her, though, that this beautiful interior would work with either gender. It's amazing, also, how tiny the Harrison a/c compressor is here compared to those honking huge ones in the fifties and sixties.
Thanks for viewing and sharing.
Can't drive them in the winter?? Thats a new one on me. And just why can't you drive them in the winter?? This should be good.
Hi Nicky, Fat tires on snow sit on top of the snow....and that gets scary when you don't have traction, Lou
@@loucostabile Yeh but how often is there snow on the ground? And its why they have snow tires.
Never been a big fan of this year and body style Camaro. 1st Gen, 70-73 2nd gen, 6th Gen and 5th Gen I prefer.
Thanks for sharing the Camaro's you prefer.
International Race Of Champions. 🙄
Correct.
Performance was way down in the Camaro in 89'.
Yes, that's correct.
The challenger was probably faster.
Look
:-)
5.7=350ci.
That's correct.
