Ws6s prob wont be worth that much except for the rare colors. there were quite abit made. v8 formulas might be worth something if in good condition

KBB/Edmunds don't show the particularly precise prices. For F-bodies they've always shown lower numbers than reality for NJ. Or has your car turned 10 years? The KBB number tanks immediately. Well, maybe the real one too.

I don't recall my SS being worth 11-13K anytime in the last year or 2 on KBB. But KBB is meaningless when real buyers are paying what it takes to buy the car. If KBB says your car is worth $5K but you have guys lined up wanting to buy it at $7K then obviously you're going to get $7K for it. But don't expect the 7K in a trade in, that's the real purpose of KBB.

Not really, it won't have any bearing on the Fbody Firehawk prices...and it's a moot point anyway since the G8 is going bye bye.

when i bought my camaro last month, kbb said 9700 was what it was worth. it said the same exact car but z28 was worth 9300. Nada seems to be a more accurate choice for car values...

Hyrbid Camaro = 4th gen chassis, first gen body pannels.

Your car is worth only as much as someone is willing to pay for it... Never know what someone will pay for a mint 4th gen in 20 years when there not many nice left.

My 1999 saturn sc2 hasn't changed value 1 dollar since i bought it 3 years ago and went from 65k to 105k.

I've put 22k on the firebird in the past 6 years at a total of 54k. I don't even want to know what the value is now.

Oh. That equals biggest waste of time & $$ ever.

I hate that term - in car lingo a hybrid is a prius, not an engine swap. Retards with LS motors, they think they invented engine swaps so much they gave it a name. Why not keep going, give everything a new name. The sky is now called Noasghe. There is now a number between 6 and seven called Xkjhd. Pompous asses.

When my 67 gets an LS motor, guess what? It's still just a camaro with a chevy V8.

:soapbox:

I definately second this. I have already had offers of up to 25,000 grand for my Formula in its current form and I will not sell. With that much they can easily just copy or set up something close to how my vehicle is. Though I dont suggest copying anybody you should be original. Like was said before the values are set by what people are willing to pay.
