Places that buy modern muscle cars?

I'm thinking of selling my 2012 2SS, but don't really want to go the Autotrader route or whatever. I'd rather not have a bunch of people just interested in joyriding, scammers, etc. So, I was wondering if anyone was aware of places that buy modern muscle cars for reasonable prices?


My car is highly modded, and it sucks, but I know I won't get nearly what I put into it, but figure it's worth looking into. One place that came to mind was Vanguard Motors, which I think I heard Joe Rogan mention on his show. Anyway, I just emailed them, and they said they're not interested. Kind of surprised by that, but whatever.

Honestly if you aren't really worried about getting top dollar in the private market, any dealer these days will give you a reasonable offer due to lack of used inventory. You might lose more selling to a specific buyer (specialty dealer) by means of shipping/travel/inventory. Try local dealers and get a rough idea of a price they are willing to pay, then move from there, don't be opposed to make a ad here as well. Someone could be looking for another. Hope that helps.

Thanks I'm torn. The car is awesome, it's just that I live in OH, so it sits in my garage for a good portion of the year. On top of that, it's just not very practical for anything besides fun. The mileage is around 8 MPGs, and with today's gas prices (thanks, Brandon), it's not gonna be a daily driver.



I figured I'd at least check around and see. OTOH, if someplace is only gonna offer me like $20K or something, then that's not even worth my time.
