I doubt you could even get near 9 ... you'll see simliar cars advertised for that but you dont see them selling. The mods actually lower the price of a vehicle unless its been completely restored or you just happen to know someone find someone who wants the exact same stuff done to it. In the past... 3 years I guess Ive bought two RS's with under 40k both for under 5500 ... personally I think you'll be lucky to get over 7000 but if you find the right buyer you never know.. good luck, ps you have try to upload the pics to the website from your computer..

ok no offense to you and your rs, but i sold my 91 rs for $3000, and bought a 92 Z28 for $10000... there's a big price difference in the "_R_eally _S_low" editions camaros, and the "Z twenty smoke you" camaros.

but back to the topic at hand... a vert like that here in toronto would easily get $10,000. personally i would love a vert like yours... i mean... it's a vert with low miles... and it's got goodies like headers and a SUPERCHARGER!

hell wanna trade it for a 92 z28? lol

Not that big a price difference....I'd say a grand or two more at the most than a similar condition V8 RS. That must've been a pristine low low mileage car

10 grand? What did you get, someone around here was selling a mint 91 z28 30k, 5spd t-tops, it had a bunch of other option too, I forget what though for 8500 and noone bought it.

No traction with street tires. Don't want to run with slicks, already replaced the stock T5 once with just NOS. I'll try to post some pictures.

What are you talking about.... I thought RS' were faster?...that was a joke btw..

I looked at Z's and RS's when looking for my car and saw alot of high ballers trying to get top dollar. Theres a big difference in someone whos gonna look around for a good deal and someone whos gonna be a schmuk and pay too much for a car... I've seen thirgens advertised for over 40k but that doesn't mean someones gonna buy then. The guy was looking for an honest estimate of how much he could reasonably get for his car... so I gave it to him. Honestly there isn't too much difference in the price unless you have something very rare like...if it was a all original 25th ann heritage edition vert with a stick...then your talking alot rarer than a random year iroc vert that someones rodded up a little.. (super charger and nos.... with no heavier duty internal components to take the beating... is that good for an engine... I cant remember?)
..just my 2c
