Default 1997 Camaro SS

Does anyone out there have a similar Gen 4 SS in Sebring Silver Metallic, and if so, what year did you sell and for how much? I'm leaning towards selling now as my priorities have shifted, but looking at the typical comps on Craigslist, Marketplace, etc. aren't really comparable. She (as I understand now) isn't a 30'th Anniversary Edition, but is super rare as I haven't been able to find another listed for sale in several years, and she's in nearly perfect condition. I'll attach some more pics. I'm curious what this community would place the listing price at... (Thanks in advance for the input)Silver 1997 Camaro SS Coupe

LT1 5.7L V8 305 horsepower

Automatic transmission

Sebring Silver Metallic exterior with subtle silver racing stripes, and grey cloth interior

30th Anniversary embroidery on seats

56,000 miles (Will increase as I take her out briefly every week or so)

Aftermarket Sony touchscreen stereo and speakers with Apple CarPlay and backup camera.

A local friend of mine bought a '96 SS hardtop, 6-speed, leather, #2 show condition with just 11k miles for $16k less than two years ago. It had several original SLP options and no modifications of any kind. That was a pretty good deal, and he might be able to sell it for a $2-4,000 more to just the right buyer, but there's just not nearly as much demand for the LT1 examples (vs. LS1). Given the higher mileage and optional content of yours, I would think that something around $15k would be as good as it gets, maybe less depending on your region (accounting for local cost of living and local popularity of these cars). I've seen some really nice LT1 Z28s of comparable mileage and condition have a hard time moving for prices in the $8,500-10,000 range so yours, even being an SS car, might have trouble in the mid-teens.

Red and black are typically the most common colors for SS 4th gens, but there were still enough silver cars built that it doesn't really qualify for a "color rarity" premium. The Teal colored LT1 SSs were much more rare and *might* bring a bit more to the right buyer, but silver in general was not a rare color for 4th gens in the 1995+ years.

I don't like mods, especially an electronics related one, but low teens ($12 -$14k) all day IMO for that really clean example. Of course the title has to be clean. Rarity is NOT a factor. GLWS!!
