Dealerships price their cars so high because they are "certified." They fix them up and do a lot of work on them to make sure they will last a long time. But $27K for that car is insane!

Where I live, Northern California, the prices for cars are very high. I bought my 99 Z28 w/ 40,000 miles for $16,100. Other places, I could of bought an SS with the same amount of miles for a couple grand less. My car did have an extended warantee and some bolt ons so it wasn't a bad deal.

Look on Autotrader for a private seller and you might have to drive a couple hours to get a good deal.

Good luck!!!

There is a Black New WS6 vert for $47K

And there is a collector edition for 50k.

I live in the Orlando area and I've found that different dealers charge different prices. Here's a great example of a dealer who didn't know how to price a car. This car was a '99 Camaro, V6, 5 spd., roll-up windows, wheel covers, basically a stripped car for $15,995!! This was back in October '02. This car stayed at this dealership for months. I felt like telling the sales manager to lower his price and he'll sell it, but he can figure that out.

$27K for that TransAm is pretty expensive, especially for that mileage. That same car in Orlando will probably be around $22-24K. A good amount of Z28s around here are priced around $16-17K.

I've found that Mustangs are VERY cheap in central FL. Newer GTs are around $12-$13K and you can get a newer V6 for under $10K.


I bought my 99 Z28 w/ 40,000 miles for $16,100

That's pretty high. My car was $14,000 and it had 40,900 miles on it when I bought it, and it has EVERY option except the 6 spd. and is in excellent condition.

For CA it probably is a fairly good price, I guess... Every area is different, you know. ;)

Hmmm... :think: When was that? I paid 14.8 for my 00 in the sig 6 weeks ago w/35K miles. And it's loaded, too. ;)

EDIT: Oh yeah..., the original question... Prices here in North TX vary a lot. Every now and then you can find a 00 T/A's in the 20K range and SS's a bit cheaper. 01's and 02's are in the low to mid 20's. Of course once in a while there are those dealers who price them out of that range, too.

Right now Reliable Chevrolet in Richardson, Texas (http://www.dallaschevy.com) has an 02 Ram Air w/26K miles for $27K and a 00 SS w/36K miles for 21K. Classic Chevrolet in Grapevine, Texas (http://www.classicchevytexas.com) has a bunch of 00 and up T/A's starting from 19K.

Also, while I was looking for my car, I found out that a very good tool for searching dealer inventories online is Get Auto.com (http://www2.getauto.com/index.html).

Later! ;)

in missouri you can pick up 01 ss's with like 22000 for like 20995-22000.

There was a 2002 SOM loaded Z28 with 6k miles on it at a dealership for $20,500! I am sure it was bought for under 20. I got there a day late:(

i saw a 98 ss with 45 k for 11k

They are higher than market value in my area ( www.edmunds.com ), so I'm going to get a 99-00 FRC C5 instead, no brainer, it is a total buyers market for C5s right now. There is a 99 black/black FRC with a cage and a couple thousand in mods asking 24k, 50k miles. Some Z06s are touching low 30s.

i found a 98 z28 camaro it had 30k miles on it and it was priced at 16,500. I also found a 02 z28 camaro rag top with like 10 miles for 29grand. it was a sweet car but it cost some money

I just paid $21,500 for an 00' SS with 30K on it. Has every option, and an auto tranny. Not bad for California....

Paid $12,700 for my 98 Z with 38k miles on it 6 months 8 months ago.

Aklaim, you coulda had a 97/98 Vette for the same price though :D

In the NW? They have had that car for a LONG time!

One of the ladies in our club traded in her 2001 WS6 for a truck (at least she kept the Z28 and the 'Vette) I talked to the dealer today since a friend of mine was looking for a car like mine, which is what she traded.

2001 TransAm WS6, Black, M6, only mod is a cutout, 18K miles.

Dealer asking $28,000, sold it Wednesday for $25,000

=======

In June 2001, I paid $26K for a 2001 WS6, M6, Black, LOADED with literally EVERY option except a drop-top.

'00 Z28 w/ 42,000 miles went for 12,900 the other day. A4 loaded. soon ill be able to afford one of these LS1's:bow:

I got my 99 Z28 6sp w/33K loaded T-tops for 13,900 in Cali.They were asking 16,900.
The TAs are always a little more expensive than the Z28s,cuz thier more classy and better looking IMO.For instance when I was looking I found at a dealer in Cali a 96 TA they were asking 12,995.
Cali prices are insane but not concrete.When searching Auto trader back east prices are alot lower this area price difference is lame also IMO.
Docs getting a Vette:cool:
scottslt1z28,Auto trader is your best bet not to mention most dealers have internet prices when advertized on the trader.
Good luck
