I paid about 5000 for mine - But It is'nt a Trans am nore a convert and it always seems to me the Trans am goes for a little more than the Camaro does. so when you think about it adding on the fact that it is a vert and the low miles it has compared to probly what mine has which is over the hundred thousand mark. It's a decent deal.

tell them start at 6300 and stop at 6900 out the door. that will be a normal/good deal. They will probably sell it, if not start wasting a whole bunch of there time, then walk out... they usually stop you as they did with me LOL...

I think 6700 is fair, is this from a dealer or private party? What kind/condition of interior? What condition is the top in? how much tread on tires? just like any car look around for the problems it has and use that to drive the price down.

Lol...I'm not bashing a Z28 by all means, love both the Z and the TA but saying the Z is worth more than a Trans Am
In Kelley Blue Book...I'll put both in as a 95 convertible, automatic, with 82,000 miles, just as he was asking about....
Suggested Retail Value
Z28-$8,165
Trans Am-$9,400

But on topic....I think that $7500 is a pretty fair price....of course definately try to get them as cheap as possible Good luck!
