I am currently looking for a camaro CONVERTIBLE
preferably in the 16k or 18k range
I really just want to get one and trade my old 13' for a little newer, low miles or high doesnt matter . im looking in AZ if anyone lives there i just cant seem to find any for a good deal
it would be greatly appreciated

. Its kinda annoying looking on carvana, carmax,etc because they have them but there like 2012 which i hate that year because of no mylink, rims,etc lol.

Your expectations exceed your price range.

Just sayin'.

I was curious so I looked on Craigslist for my area. Nothing newer than 2012 for under $20k.

Aside from model type, mileage is the most important factor in determining what you are going to pay. Higher mileage cars will be heavily discounted compared to the same year with low miles. I would buy a high mileage SS or LS engine based Camaro, just due to the reliability of the LS platform. But I would not buy the V6 model with high miles.

But I agree with what was said above, your expectations are way too high for what you want to pay. Especially since you also want a convertible.

There are plenty of high mileage cars that are in great condition and were very well cared for. But low miles is going to fetch a premium, no doubt.

I agree. Private sale is where this is most likely to happen. Someone selling it, desperate for cash. But at a dealer? No way. Especially not a low milage rag top.

You will have to increase your range or just keep what you have until the prices eventually get lower. Cars.com has a couple of ragtops that are within your price range, but mileage is around 50K on up.
