In the future when posting code please use the 101/010 button above to correctly format your script (lieave an empty line between text and code). For more information on creating post please see the user guide and FAQ.

I did this for you this time.

This will correct the error

 using UnityEngine;
 using System.Collections;
 
 public class CarCamera2 : MonoBehaviour
 {
     private Transform target = null;
     public float distance = 3.0f;
     public float height = 3.0f;
     public float damping = 5.0f;
     public bool smoothRotation = true;
     public bool followBehind = true;
     public float rotationDamping = 10.0f;
 
     void Start () 
     {
         if (GameObject.Find("CameraTarget"))
         {
             target = GameObject.Find("CameraTarget").transform;
         }
     }
 
     void FixedUpdate ()
     {
         if (target != null)
         {
             Vector3 wantedPosition;
             if(followBehind)
                 wantedPosition = target.TransformPoint(0, height, -distance);
             else
                 wantedPosition = target.TransformPoint(0, height, distance);
 
             transform.position = Vector3.Lerp (transform.position, wantedPosition, Time.deltaTime * damping);
 
             if (smoothRotation)
             {
                 Quaternion wantedRotation = Quaternion.LookRotation(target.position - transform.position, target.up);
                 transform.rotation = Quaternion.Slerp (transform.rotation, wantedRotation, Time.deltaTime * rotationDamping);
             }
             else
                 transform.LookAt (target, target.up);
         }
     }
