Default Why cant I sell my car?

I've got a 2001 Z/28 with 16500 miles? As clean as it can be Maroon 6 speed with everyoption except a 12 disk. Give me some suggestions on selling it maybe i'm way off on price, anyway any input would be great thanks guys.

IMO Because cars like ours are only appealing to a certian crowd. Its not like a POS work truck that alot of people are looking for. So if your price isnt way low most people will just buy a new car an not have to worry about the history of a used sports car. But good luck.

That's your problem. While the miles are low. It's just a Maroon Z28.

I agree! Miles are low and it's probably a good car but the price is a little high to justify buyingi it over a new sports car or even a later model! Where else have to posted it to sell it?

LMFAO!

That is a 15k car tops bra. Lower the price, and you might actually get some takers.

I'd expect $13k-ish to be a fairly realistic asking price for your car. I paid $18k for my Z28 when it was 1 yr old and had 6k miles on it.

although the car might be worth that amount i'd say you would be best selling 12k or 15k at highest
camaros just don't hold up their value too much these days

especially with stock 400hp+ new ones coming out shortly...makes it tough to sell a 300hp one

lol, yeh sorry, these cars lose value almost as quickly as GTOs' no advice to really give you other than putting it on autotrader, cars.com ect ... i sold my 99 firehawk on auto trader a couple years ago. i took a hit in the price too. i started at 22000, ended up selling it for 18000. it had 36000 miles on it.

Were you in the car when it got hit? I think it hampered your ability to spell properly.

i think your cars worth $15,000.

with that low of miles def.

who cares if its a Z28 or SS. in the future it will be modded anyway. id rather have a clean low milage Z28 then a 50,000 mile SS.

post some pictures of it.
