What do you think I could get for my car?
I'd hate to say this, but I "MAY" and I emphasis on "MAY" have to sell my car. I don't want to and I'm sad If I do, take a look at my cardomain website and let me know! It has 93,000 and runs great! New paint, wheels etc. I was thinking I'd put it in the paper for $9,500 just to see what would bite? Let me know what you think! http://members.cardomain.com/maximusz

It depends on the person your selling it to. If they really want it then theyll prob pay it for a high price... IMO i say aroun 5000-7000 dollars. YOur car is really nice, and love the paint as well. You did a really good job to it. To bad your gonna sell it.
why do you want to sell it? you have a sharp looking car so i say these things in respect and only because i've been there, but honestly you don't have much done to your car to ask much over blue book just by looking at your sig and cardomain.
your paint looks good....but not seeing it in person pictures don't mean a thing. if it was a stock color repaint you could consider tacking $1,000 on to the car but then you'll start to separate yourself from others. repaints on cars make them hard to sell and the price your asking in most cases will cause the car to be looked over well. unless it was a custom paint job beyond factory specs you can ask for some of your money back but chances are slim.
the hood on your car is very selective of preference so that might kill your sales alone. definately something i would offer to the buyer as an extra expense and possibly try to sell the hood separate. assuming you have the stock hood. you would have an easier time with the stock hood. depending on the finish and fit of hood anywhere from $3-600 would be a reasonable price to tack on.
your wheels are nice so that will definately help you. typically you can cut the price you paid in half and tack that on to the blue book to help with your selling price. the only way they could hurt you were if a teenager were trying to buy and their parents noticed they weren't stock which would throw a flag to them and try to convince the kid otherwise.
your mileage is great, but not expensive price great. once you cross the 80,000 mile mark on most cars you really loose the mileage pull. 95,000 is definately better then 130,000 miles but your at the point where alot will need to be fixed soon so again this could help or hurt and you need to adjust your price right. you have a 92 so this will help with some but your mileage really is somewhat average and definately not low.
basically if you want my honest opinion you have a 2,500-4,000 max blue book vehicle in stock form. the 305-5spd is your saving grace. your paint and mods are nice but you can't sell your car and expect to get what you put into it. your trying to sell a car that's worth a respectable 3,500 or so in it's stock form with maybe 4,000 max in real world priced mods for 9,500. your better off parting it out and selling it stock at this point.
i wish you luck and to the right buyer it may be worth every penny but i would say a 4-5,000 would be no problem. i'd put it in the paper for 7,000 or best and see what happens.

Beautiful car, but I wouldn't pay more than $6K for it. That is just my opinion based on the fact that I'm not a huge fan of that hood or Torque Thrust wheels on thirdgen Camaros. Good Luck if you end up selling it.

I'm trying so hard not to sell it, it runs great but w/ a new job I can't afford ANY tickets and I need reliable transport to work in the snow! I'm in a real debate of what to do! And the reason I figured to put the price so high is because it's a 92 annaversary 305 w/ a stick! It is so hard to find one! Especially in great condition! I dunno, I can't decide! And I can't afford to have two cars! HELP!!

thats what i do, works great for me
. you can find "beaters" for less than 500 dollars. Ive driven my tempo in the winter for 2 winters now (beating the HELL out of it with ebrake yankers and such and i havnt had a single problem with it.) it cost me 200 bux!

if you need the money its one thing but don't do it over insurance as theirs ways around it..........unless you have a record.

put it up for whatever you want just expect to get alot of wasted time answering phone calls.
