Price increase....or decrease??

I was just wondering what everyone thought would happen to thirdgens.....if the price of them are going to go up.....or down or stay the same. I mean i know that with everything if you keep it in decent shape with age.......its obviously going to go up. I was just wondering though. Im looking around at prices and they seem low even with the fact that they dont produce camaros or firebird anymore.

This is getting asked like 4 times a week now. If you do a search there should be a good amount of info.

I think it'll stay about the same. Maybe in a few years they'll go up.

around here where I live I have seen good cars go as much as $12,000 & thats in good shape. from 82-92 so it depends on where you live at. But I have to agree for the most part the price is staying the same.

Its already being pumped up. Kelly blue book took my car (assumeing good paint) from a value of 3500 at 78000 miles to 5500, same options and all with 82,000 miles. So i wouldn't be suprised to see prices go up over the next few years. Mostly because of the death of the F-Bodies (however temporary it may be.).
