Still holding strong

I just received 2 offers for my car again within the past week from CarMax and a local dealer. Even with it being winter, both offers were within $1,000.00 from last mid/late summer sky high pricing. Even if it took either offer now, I would still be ahead. Even the dealers know that the 5th gens are the ones to snag up.

For me it's the opposite. My truck only averages like 12 mpg on E85 but I'm pretty sure I could get my Camaro above 20 mpg avg. My brother said my Camaro may just get out more this year and park my truck until winter to save some cash. I seriously doubt seeing myself doing that though.

I can only imagine. Tough times for everyone in one way or another.

It is tempting to take one of these places up on their offer. No back and forth b.s and/or dealing with the broke tire kickers and better yet...walk out with more cash then I gave for it.

I got an offer last month for 25K for mine in the mail from a local Chevy dealer that I didn’t even buy the car from. It’s tempting if you only think about it for a minute or two. Mine is not for sale.

Lol yea, I’m sure they would be more than willing to make me a deal, I’m confident that “deal” would result in me getting boned on an insanely over priced C8 Z haha. My thought on it all is, if you don’t have a replace it this is a great time to sell. I don’t NEED to replace it but I sure as hell would want to with something, a Vette is actually on the short list as some of you’ve likely read.
The ultimate plan is a Jet Steam Blue C6 next to Blue.

Undecided at the moment. I saw other threads were people say the price have dropped big time but I'm not getting that. These cars seem to be holding strong even during the winter months.

Vette prices are at an all time high. I can easily sell mine over original sticker price.

Vette prices are crazy right now. We have the C8 to thank for that.
But a Corvette is the only reason I would trade or sale my Camaro..
