Anyone not touching a hair on their Camaro? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

No mods, no body kits, no rims, Just keeping everything stock/factory. I was thinking of keeping my RS that way, do you think the resale value is higher by not touching the car?

2010 SSRS · 04-21-2010, 01:18 PM

I would definitely say the value will be more on an untouched Camaro with low mileage.

If you just want to turn around and sell it later, sure.

Maurdib · 04-21-2010, 01:21 PM

Nah, not selling anytime soon, but if it becomes a classic

My car, my fun mod time

Nothing wrong with just driving & enjoying it as it is either

To each their own...

that is why i kept all the factory stuff i removed. in case i want to revert to stock later down the road.

only mistake i made was forgetting my mufflers at the place that installed my exhaust because it was raining and they wouldn't fit in the trunk!

I'm going to coat my Camaro in cosmolene, store it in my shed under wraps and then break it out in 30 yrs and sell it on Ebay.

I was gonna start the same thread. Not necessarily to ask about resale value, but just about keeping it stock.

I really think the rebirth of these cars started a "new renaisance" for the American muscle car (Mustang and Challenger included). In 25 -30 years, they're gonna be pretty special, and hold a lot of value. Although there will be hundreds of thousands sold, vey few will be kept stock, and prestine.

Yep.. I think they'll be worth something.
Little do I care as I'm gonna be buried in mine anyway!!

That would be me, I'm keeping mine the way it was the day I got it, no mods nothing. I
plan on keeping this car. The only thing I changed was lloyds floor mats. That's it.

jtzako · 04-21-2010, 02:01 PM

Mine will be stock as far as engine/drive train go. But I did add the PDIM/USB and might do a CAI in the next year or so. Once the warranty is up it is all fair game though.

The Reaper · 04-21-2010, 02:01 PM

Not passing it on...gonna be buried in it!! Just prop me up behind the wheel, point me toward the hole and put it in gear. I will go to my grave driving!!

peele1 · 04-21-2010, 02:04 PM

Keeping mine all stock...only addition -side gill inserts from GM/Defenderworx.

camarowa · 04-21-2010, 02:06 PM

No, I am tweaking mine to my liking. Car is meant to be driven, not worried about "collector" value.
