Default Looking for a Camaro

I'm trying to find a Camaro or T/A within a couple hours drive of central MA. I want to trade in my 05 ???? this weekend and buy something that has power to the correct wheels. If anyone knows of any good cars at a stealership let me know. Thanks -Mike

Back when I was looking for an Fbody there was a dealer out near Boston, I think it was Veracka Motors, that had a TON of Fbodies, as well as some Lightinings, Vettes, Terminators, etc. I think he only sold performance vehicles. He wanted top dollar for them, but they were nice. Definitely worth a look if he's still around.

Be carefull of Veraka. If you're going to get a car from there, really check it out first. I've heard, and seen some horror stories, from that place. But a couple of people I know have gotten some good cars from there.

I got mine there over 5 years ago, It's been good to me. No problems.

With any used car you gotta know what to look for.

Yeah ive gotten two cars from veracka both camaros and both 99's one was an a4 other m6 same problem with both of them my cats were shitty and i had to rebuild my tranny on the auto within a year and on the 6 speed my clutch went literally on the drive home coming off the highway my clutch just locked up and it kept doin some weird thing and they had to replace the crank sensor but they replaced everything even the clutch for me. Oh and the camaro i have now they never gave me a vehicle history report with it even though i asked prob 10times for one now im starting to see things that look like they have been sprayed over and possibly replaced other than that the car was good.

I just came back from Veracka. They had a WS6 and a Camaro but they were horribly overpriced and not what I was looking for anyways. Any other places?

The worst thing you could do is to buy a performance car at a dealership right now: the prices are at their peak! If you turn in an '05 too, you'll lose a bundle of $$.

Best thing is to sell the '05 yourself and to buy a car privately, with cash - you'll save thousands.

I know I'm gonna lose some money trading it in but I want out now. I'm just having a hard time finding a hardtop. I don't want t-tops. If anyone knows of a decent car let me know. I would even take an 04 gto at the right price.
