Top 15 Affordable Sports Cars of the 80s
Chevrolet Camaro
Introduced for the 1982 model year, the third-generation Camaro was available in coupe and convertible body styles with a slew of engines, including a rather unexciting 2.5-litre four, but V6 and V8 engines were also offered at affordable prices. The early Z28 versions made do with a 5.0-litre V8 that developed between 145 and 165 horsepower, but over time, output increased to 230 hp in the IROC-Z editions, while a 5.7-litre V8 with 245 hp and 345 pound-feet of torque was available as well.
