Default 1998 Z28 79,000miles

Hey, I'm looking to sell my Camaro next year before the summer and I was wondering what you guys think I could get for it. It's an A4 with full exhaust and computer tune. Car will probably have around 80,000 miles by April...

The mileage certainly isn't too bad (about 7500 a year) but realistically about $4,500 - $5,000 to some young driver that wants all those mods. It will be 11 years old and most likely sold to someone who has little cash. No loans available unless from a family member. It will be a limited market. Good luck!

I would start at 7K and let someone talk you down a little. I wouldnt let it go for under 6,500 though. Its hard to come across these cars without a whole lot of miles for this price. I bet it would go quick.

Perhaps in better times. Realistically is the key word in these tough economic times. Maybe it will be better next year. Let's hope so.

I'm in the market and would pay ~4.5 for the Z28 and ~5 for bcgetfresh's TA. It's a buyers market...cash in hand goes a long way, eventually I'll get a seller to bite at an offer.

I'd ask $7500 B/o. Times are tough, but $4500 might land ya a respectable 3rd Gen or a decent LT1 or a high mileage LS1. Right now it would be hard to sell anything but your not looking to sell until next year, so hold on to it until then. Think about it this way, If you sold the car for $xxxx amount of dollars what could you buy for that amount? $4500 = 96-98 Mustang GT, 85-87 Monte SS, etc. Also notice how buyers are saying $5000 and sellers are saying $7500 somewhere in the middle is the true market value.
