Default Auction: 2 Owner 1994 Camaro With the B4C

A re-paint and new windshield are 'admitted' plus the owner saying he believes the mileage is correct. The Camaro does look good but I'm guessing a final price around $11,000 when all is said and done. 8 hours to go in the auction as I write this.Anyone else want to guess today before it ends??

That link seems to indicate an end date of Tues, 10/22 @5pm. Is there another one that's ending today (you mentioned 8 hours from this morning)? Just wondering if the original auction was ended for some reason or if that was just a typo.

The car looks extremely nice for the mileage, just a bit of detailing needed here and there but it otherwise presents quite well. My biggest concern is regarding the paint; it mentioned "storm damage" being the need for a repaint. Was that due to hail? This could also explain why the windshield was replaced. I don't care how hard it rains, it's not going to damage the paint. Typically, anything storm related that damages the paint will also do some body damage (but the owner says there was none). I guess if the car was just heavily brushed by some light tree branches it might have damaged the paint without hurting the body. Either way, I'm a little concerned about the quality of the hood paint in pictures 9-11; I can't tell if that's just some dusty film that will clean off, or if that's some sort of haze in the clear coat. Beyond that, it seems to be a quality repaint.

One very interesting point about this car is the audio system. Having the Bose system with a CD player had to be extremely rare for a B4C car. In fact, CD players in general weren't super common for a 1994 Camaro, so I can only imagine how few B4C examples would have been built with this.

Hard to nail down a value for something like this. The mileage is too high (for the current age of the car) to bring out any serious collectors, but it's definitely an interesting car (with the B4C option) in much nicer shape than average (and all stock) so it would make a nice entry-level "collector" car/cruise night driver. I think your value estimate is probably just about right, but it will all depend on whether or not the right person sees this auction. The LT1 cars are a harder sell, but this car is definitely more "special" than a garden variety '94 Z28 with ~60k miles.

Actually, this car isn't too far from me. Maybe I need another 4th gen Camaro??? I'm not NOT interested. Haha.

Bummer... The auction ended and didn't meet reserve. It doesn't say what the price was that didn't meet the reserve
Yeah, it was re-listed with a new end date. No way of playing along since there is a reserve involved. Sorry....but if it does meet reserve next time we will be able to see a price.

Just a quick follow-up. This turned out to be a waste of a thread. It didn't meet reserve again. It is now for sale and he is asking $16,800.
I don't see it personally and he may be waiting a long time. Yeah, if it had 20,000 miles and was all original, then of course.

Yeah, he's going to be keeping that car for quite a while it seems. I could see $10-12k tops, assuming the paint concerns I noted above are just grime and not a hazy clear coat. It would really need to be inspected in person as the quality of aftermarket repaints is all over the place.

If I were selling it, I would not pass up an offer of $10k. Anything more would just be getting lucky. This might be another seller who thinks that 2021-22 pricing is still valid. I don't think everyone has gotten the memo yet!
