I think it would be better to sell the car yourself, and just use the money for the new ride. The car look's nice, and with it being a convertible. Im sure there's gotta be a teenage girl somewhere in your area that would love to get that car just becuz it's a Convertible.
Im sure you can find a good deal though on a Z28 or SS. Just look around on the net, near your area. That's how i got my car, searched within 500 mile's of my area.

This thread went from the op asking an opinion to Camaro Vs. T/A. Stop eating your own kind!!!!
To the op, If all the F-bodys similar to yours are selling in the same price range in your location like you say then hold your price for a bit and see what happens. It is about to be summer and people are going to want summer cars. If you do not get any offers then lower your price. As for the Camaro - T/A situation, I have had both and loved both. I really liked the smooth looks of my Z and the fixed head lights. On the other hand I was crazy about the curves and slp h.o. hood I put on the T/A, but I hated the flip up head lights. Speaking of flip up headlights look what I drive know, I can't get away fron the damn things haha.

Some Facts here
EVERY 4th Gen every made has a absolutely Hideous Interior. The Camaro is really plain and the Seats are nowhere as comfortable as a Trans Am with adj Bolsters. Also if you know me or read my Posts I'm not biased. I have owned 99 Z28, 99 B4C,01 SS, 00 Formula,00 Trans Am and my current WS.6

Nice rims ive got the same but mine are orginal of a 96 grandsport/ anyway i would say your car is worth about 10.5 due to it being a 98 but being a vert i say 10.5 if it wasnt i would say around 9k 98s arent worth as much than say an 02. **** sucks but its the truth.
Oh and the camaro interior well the 02s at least are quite nice i excepecialy like the 35th anvs plaaque. and i particularly hate the ta door panels and its not because of the looks they crack realy bad for no reason.

You are not going to sell it for 11 k. I got my 98 trans am convertible 90 thousand miles runs great with nice aftermarket shocks and pretty much stock everything else for 8700 and it was in new jersey, where they are damn overpriced. And i always see camaro's ss in new jersey, I have only seen 2 other trans am where i live one in school and the other in the street and mine of course! So trans am are way more rare then camaros
