Thinking about trading in My camaro - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

smokingcamaro · 06-14-2011, 02:28 PM

I have a 2010 Camaro LS Auto that I have really gotten bored with, I think since it does not have a stick. I know that if I was to trade it in right now I would get 20k for it which is pretty good but I really do not know what to do. I am thinking about getting a 350z or maybe even another camaro just do not know what to do. I love the Camaro just have to have a Stick!!! What should I do?

Its your money...? And im not sure you would get 20K for the trade in. Maybe if you sold it on the outside you may get 20K but not at a dealer. Theyre gonna want to make a profit too and they cant do that by giving u 20K for it then turning around and selling it for 24K... A new LS is less than that.

yeah, $20k from a dealer is a pipe dream. Get whatever makes you happy. Good luck.

$17k for a used LS is likely. I don't think it is so much not having a stick shift that bored you...it is that and not having the power of the SS. Get a SS and forget about it.

So the 350 or 370Z isn't gonna fit that bill... might as well keep the LS

Idk, I was so love struck that I had to have one, totally did not take into consideration that I might want a stick. Now I regret it but it is my first car which I bought and pay for!!!

mikeSS · 06-14-2011, 06:28 PM

you could easily get a 350z for 17k.

well have to keep in mind that a 350z might not have as much HP as a v6 camaro, but does weigh less and trust me is funner to drive. even my friends 2008 350z that he use to have can be funner than my 500HP+ camaro at times.

so you also have to look at the handling of the car+ the power. i personally would take a 350z over a v6 camaro. hell i might be take a 370z over a SS on the right days.

you should see what you can get for the camaro than, think about what you can get.

Especially with used 2010 SS's going under 30k now with less than 10k miles.

I'm with ya Mike!
I traded my 350Z for the Camaro and don't mind saying that the 350 is the most fun driving experience I've ever had behind the wheel (as far as handling goes). That little high-winder was made for the track right outta the box and can easily handle any abuse you send it's way! Lotsa fun in the city!

However if it's looks, the stick, and straight line power you're after then yeah... save you pennies and go after an M6 SS! Choice is yours dude!
