Refreshed for the second time, the 1978 Chevy Camaro lent new life to a rapidly aging design. The biggest change was a switch from metal bumpers to soft urethane front and rear fascias painted the same color as the body, but snazzy new T-tops that rattled and leaked were also notable. Standard, Type LT, Rally Sport, and Z28 trim levels continued, and the Z28 got a fake hood scoop and fender vents to better battle the incredibly popular Firebird Trans-Am. Buyers in California could only get a Camaro with an automatic transmission in 1978. The engine lineup remained the same, though the optional 350 V8 for all Camaros except the Z28 was making 170 horsepower by now. Watch out.
