9. Car is very low but has new stuts and shocks and will come with old springs just encase you want to have it at stock height

Depends on what kind of car you want to buy.

No, seriously, I think those are fair prices as much as I hate to see you sell the car.

I may be wrong but I don't think you'll get back what you put into those upgrades. I just know that I wouldn't pay extra except for maybe the stall, besides you may not want to sell it after doing the upgrades lol.

If your going to sell it then sell it the way it sits with the extra uninstalled things. $5500 is probably a good price to start at...

Lol im thinking about getting a grand prix gxp or Bonneville gxp with the ls4 or a trail blazer ss just kinda looking for a better all year round car with school and all i just cant afford both my blaze and camaro and im just gonna sell the blaze too. But im also gonna save up and get a newer ls1 camaro in a few years or maybe when i graduate ill get a 2SS 5th gen.

And i know i prob wont want to sell it if i do the rebuild, trans, and rear end upgrades.

Well see i payed 5000 last year with none of the things it has now it was stock except for flowmaster catback and newer tires so i deff have put like 2 grand into it so idk =/ im deff loosing money

That's the name of the game. Your never going to get out of your car what you put into it...

your going to get low balled like crazy. i say keep the car and buy a beater.

I'm with this guy. With the market right now, LS1 cars can be had for that price.. so its going to be hard to get good money for your lt1. I see no problem with driving a beater car as a DD and having the sports car for fun, I've been doing it for 3 years now.

your going to get low balled like crazy. i say keep the car and buy a beater.

while this is true, you also get to low ball like crazy on other cars once you sell it, which makes it come out even.

I almost did the same thing that you are about to do with my formula and it would have been a mistake. I wrecked it soon after with plpd and sold it to a junk yard for 1500. I was then FORCED to drive a lil 4 banger beater, which drove good, but i could not stand not having the power. You will regret it unless you replace it with something faster!!

adding the extra upgrades and then selling the car is NOT the way to go. Just like how you said you bought it for 5 k and put 2 k into it and now your going to "try" to get 5,500. Waste of money to mod your car with the intent of selling it right after unless your a well known builder or are restoring a classic car from frame up....otherwise you will lose $$ 9 times out of 10.

$5,500 would be good place to start at and then come down...however to put it into perspective...i bought a 94 Formula for $4,800 with 75K on it in good condition back in 2002. Didnt have the mods that yours does...just K&N and Flowmaster tho. on another note though.....people sell stuff that seems waaaaay overpriced and people buy it all the time..."so to each their own". Good luck with the sale, but i would just keep it and get a DD.

auto or t56

[camarochick16]

btw nick you already know what i think about selling the camaro.

I agree with that 99% of the time inless you buy it cheap enough and you find a sucker I mean an uninformed buyer. Too often people bring in a car that was throughn together by a hack but it was shiny. We call that "putting purfume on a piig"
