if people are dumb enough to pay high prices, then the inflation of these cars will continue to get even more out of hand. and they are insane right now!

i just picked up a 1-owner, '99 Formula Hardtop, 6spd for $3k. Simply need the drivers seat redone, a water pump (which i already have), passenger side foglight and a hood latch release cable.

no paint/clearcoat issues, and mechanically solid sans waterpump.

deals are out there, but most end up caving on these so called 'rare' cars...

These things are selling for more than LS1techers think they should right now, but those prices are insane. I would imagine that WS6 is priced that way on purpose, to make the buyer think they get a deal when they find someone to pay 15k ish. The camaro on the other hand, those fools think that these are collectible in some way.

I was super happy to spend 10k on mine several months back. Couldn't imagine spending double or more.

Pay attention and get out before the bubble bursts ...

Dealerships like in that ad are just like commodities brokers artificially driving up the price.

At some point in time, the whole thing crashes.

Winner!!!!!! The minute the Gen 5 Camaros start flooding the market, these cars will be worth nothing just like the Gen 3's and Gen 2's did.
