Mint condition?! 
Body damage (pic #29), various paint issues and imperfections, fender flared from improper jacking, etc. If that's mint condition, how would you would describe an actual really nice one that was competition worthy? 
Don't get me wrong, it's not junk, but it's certainly not mint.
But I do agree; it's not 2022 anymore, prices have retreated a bit on pretty much all special interest cars. Having said that, I don't think the OP is TOO far off on his price. I'd probably ask a couple grand less to start, then be willing to negotiate down another grand or two depending on how much interest you get. Region can certainly play a role - some folks don't want to travel and getting a car shipped is costly (not to mention the risk of buying sight unseen).

It’s mint condition for 10k. A little dent like that is $1200 at my shop so all In @11,200.
it’s a good comparison similar year similar miles.
the OP’s Camaro has mismatched interior parts, tear in the carpet, dirty carpets, faded seat, missing bottle, disconnected wires, distasteful valve covers and the list goes on. If I was a buyer I’d offer $10k and wait for him to come back at $12k then find some middle ground.
If I were the seller I’d ask $13,500 and let someone beat me up a little and take 12,000.
No hate, it’s a fair assessment.

context is important which I didn’t explain well.. I never do as I always try to keep the posts short.

Otherwise, again, I agree with the rest of what you outlined above. Fair indeed.
Although, the only mis-matched interior parts on the OP's car have to do with the aftermarket audio system (such as those lower kick panel additions), otherwise the rest is actually correct for a 1998-99 14I + 14B "Dark Gray" interior (e.g. the "two-tone" door panels are correct for this interior color, etc.).

I agree with the rest of your post above, I just wouldn't ever use "mint" condition to describe anything with body damage and paint issues. It's a very overused word, and seems to be used by lots of folks to describe anything that isn't junkyard condition.

It’s the wrong color. It’s been changed, No big deal.
mint is never over used when trying take money. 😉
