I think $12k - $15k for the ebay market. The problem you run into is the perception of value with all the mods. Most buyers, who don't race, will see the mods (and if you make the mistake of posting 1/4 times) and guess the car was raced, therefore beat on and worth far less. Others who are clueless, will only look at the KBB value and discount any value you place on the mods - all they see is a 2002 Camaro. Those who have raced will appreciate the work and money put into the mods, but will only offer a slightly higher value than the average driver, as they look for a deal and expect desperation on the part of the seller.

In other words, the buyer has all the advantage over the seller when it comes to modded sports cars.

In the end, its only worth what someone will pay for it. I would start where I mentioned - somewhere under US$15K and see if you get any buyers. YOu are more likely to find quality buyers, who appreciate the mods, on boards like NJFBOA (and others) where the enthusiasts and racers are looking for a complete car that can be driven away from the sale. On ebay, who knows if the winning bidder will actually complete the transaction? Add in the hassle of shipping and uncertainty, and you may be better trying to sell your car directly through Camaro-centric websites and organizations.

Good luck!
