I'm definitely open to entertaining offers... Not $19,000 though. The car is under warranty until the end of December. Brakes are still in good shape, and I do still have the stock exhaust and intake if a buyer would be interested in that being included. As I said, I'm open to offers and with this forum, I have a great network of people who love these cars.

I was going to bring up the new car competition, but figured it would be bashed.
But THAT is reality. If someone is not as educated about camaros, sees yours and then sees a new one for the same money.... you have lost that buyer.

I think your expectations are a little high(not too high though) but either way, id clay bar, wax and detail the interior. Better it looks the more appealing it will be to a potential buyer and the more they will be willing to spend.

What do you guys suggest for a price? I just clay barred, waxed and detailed the interior. It looks great.

Personally I hope you are able to sell it for that price - and this is not in your specific area - but here's a 2011 2LT/RS (w/ HUD) at a dealer for $24k w/ a lot less miles. Considering anyone that walks through the door can get a minimum of $500 off it's right at your asking price. Just a FYI.

(Though personally I would run from those green stripes....)

Edit: Regarding the detailing work you've done. In my experience once you get the person to your house then that helps make the sale but the price is the thing that gets them to the door. I had a '95 Corvette where the buyer told me the reason he bought mine that day was because I was priced with everyone else but mine was 100% spotless & others he looked at the seller didn't even vacuum.

This has happened to me also but there are few and far examples of this happening. 'Right place, right time'

SS King what did you use to sell? I understand the way the market is moving at this point in time and dealers are able to offer some pretty good incentives to circulate inventory. I just need to find someone who cannot stand working with dealers (like myself) and for them to come see the car. I know whoever that might be would be all over it.
