Default How much is it worth...

I am contemplating selling my car and moving on into something faster(03/04 Cobra or C5 )... I am at the point where it is beginning to bore me and I just want to try something new...but I really do not know what to ask for it if it does sell...

My mods : The car is a 1999 SS Camaro with the following... Pacesetter Longtubes, ORY , SLP Catback , SLP Airlid, Pro 5.0 shifter, Spec Stage 2 Clutch, 4.10 Motive Gears(no whine). The car also has been dynotuned and put down 345 RWPH and 355 FT/LBS...62,000 miles...

I am in Socal ...I see SS Camaro's sell for easily 15K with more miles than mine... but idk...

Any ideas?

That's decent miles for a 99. You should be able to get $15 without a prob, imo.

its only worth what someone is willing to pay. You have two things against you..the season(although in so cal i'm sure its a lot nicer through the winter months) and that fbodies don't hold thier value. I bought my 01 ss 2 years ago with 50k on it for 15k. Thats in a different area though. If that car was around here, i'd pay 11-12k.

If I were you, I'd just mod my car a little more, to rekindle that fire I suppose. But if you're set on a new car, go for it. I'd look to get 15k for it as well if I were to sell.

$15k? Nuts. I'd say closer to $12-13k for the non-enthusiast public. Very low miles relative to the year. At least those mods will be transparent to most people, except for your dumped Y of course.

Definitely set the high dollar price at $15 though, if what you've seen is accurate.

I'd say 12 if the body is in really good condition.

Yea, I would rather keep it if that was the case. Remember, this is in Socal...I saw a 1998 SS Camaro with 88,000 in worse condition than mine...selling for 13 K ...Market is ridiculous...Would I be better off putting it back to stock if I wanted to sell? I did keep all my parts...
