I just called the guy and he said he doesn't want to lose any money on it lol. He tried to pitch to me that its a very rare collector car lol. it's 6 almost 7 years old its not a collector yet. I thought this was hilarious. BTW kelly blue book on the 35th anniversary SS with 600 miles is only high 15k

Yeah, that guy's been hitting the pipe HARD.

For that money it better have 4 miles on it and still have the original plastic on the seats.

But what's up with the ZR1's, those aren't stock for an '02....and I HATE it when people refer to all 2002's as the aniversary edition. The aniversary edition was the red one with checkered flag stripes, dammit!!

haha, that guy is baked out of his mind....unless he has 2 of them.

and technically, all 02 Camaros are 35th anniversary cars, read the dash! The red ones with checkered stripes are 35th Anniversary Limited Edition SS cars.

I wouldn't give him a penny over $28,000



Seriously though, for that money you could have a nice low mile c6. Or for $10,000-$15,000 more you could have a used z6z06. He is kidding himself, but maybe he will find someone with more money than brains.

I've seen dealers try to sell WS6's for $25k or $26k a while ago maybe a couple years ago and these days at least $20k - $22k for anything less than 30k miles. I think his asking price is awful high though.

the guy said he bought it to try and make a profit off it. I think all of us should start calling him and convince him he is a moron for trying to sell it for that much. I would give him 16k for it right now. But it is a really nice low mile clean car

Yea 29k is a bit optimistic. 25k would be much more reasonable though. If it was an LE car then I could see it selling for 25k.

Strongly disagree. MINT showroom F-bodies with under 15k miles will sell for up to $25,000. If you could pick one up for $20,000 that would be an excellent deal. Yes, this guy is too high however.

Vert CETA's blue book in the 20's in good condition and the right miles. But that SS really isn't anything special and what he doesn't understand is that unless someone with a large checking account or cash comes along wanting that specific camaro, no one is going to be able to get a loan on such a car. The bank will look at the value of the car and laugh you out of there.
