The reason you’re losing more money is because 20% (random percent but this is roughly what used cars have appreciated by) of a higher number (zl1 price) is going to be a few thousand more than 20% of a lower number (SS price)

An 18 zl1 in late 2019/early 2020 would probably have been listed at roughly 55k while also being a newer vehicle than it is now and you probably would be able to negotiate from that price too.
Ya... Good point... I've pretty much given up on it. I'll hang onto my paid for SS and just enjoy it. I added the Red Calipers, blacked it out, added the PowerStop rotors and pads.. etc... The ZL1 would be more power, but I like to drive my Camaro below 40 degree temps, in the rain, etc.. So I'd want to swap tires. I love the red Calipers, so I'd have to swap those too. Yep, it's more HP/Tq, but I can live with what my 2SS has anyway. Sell my car and fork out another $30k+... Just not seeing it be worth it... "For Me"...!
