Thumbs up 99 1le hoss

Just curious as to what my buddy's Car would be worth.... Its a 99 Hugger orange SS 1LE car w/ 6sp, T-tops, leather ect... I think its at about 28k miles and in near mint condition. Only mods are SLP LM1 cat back and billet grille. I think i read somewhere that there were 77 1LE's made that year and only 7 of which were SS's. This correct? Thanks

If he wants it to be worth anything he better keep the miles off of it and turn it into a car that gets out a few Saturdays a year....

To give you an idea this car I think would be worth the money if it did not have the miles and was better taken care of.

Miles kill a car.... it could be one of 3 but if it has a 100k miles then........

Tell him not to sell the stock stuff if he didn't already

That sounds like quite the rare find. He prob get 16-17k now, that price could double within 10 years say?

The grille was a normal crap camaro grille but the SLP dual dual cat-back, he took off for the loud mouth. He threw it away before i could tell him to keep it or sell the damn thing! And thats what i was thinking...anywhere from 15-20k depending on how long he wanted to wait.

Even 8k miles in 6 years is quite a bit........ to really keep them off the car has to be a local Saturday hang out car honestly.... Id look for deals on the stock parts and hold onto them.

I would wait a while before I sold it if I was him. With the miles he has on it I can't see it selling for 20k right now.... wait till it is really hard to find a car with that kind of miles and then it might.
