The one for $36k I find to be about right since they are going for about $39k new. The other 18 for $33k I definitely find cheap.

I don't think it's that surprising for a Camaro to lose about $10k in the first year or so of ownership, even if it was kept in perfect shape. It's just the name of the game for this segment. You pay a steep steep price to be the first owner of any sports car.
On top of this, the sports car market is crashing. The Kia Stinger was/is being sold for $10k under MSRP now. You can get a GT for sub $30k.

Can't really know for sure how good the deal is until you do some digging, especially when the prices look too good to be true.

If you think used Camaro prices are low now just wait a few more months. Rest assured however that values will spike back up in the spring of 2019, reaching maximum peak values around Memorial Day and holding fairly steady through the July 4 holiday, when the declines start all over again. Just the nature of the beast.....

Great job finding out the lemon buyback. How did you look that up?

Prices are going to fluctuate with incentives for new models and changes in interest rates or loan programs.
GM hasn't done 0% financing with incentives since the start of the year (since then only 1k off plus 0% for 60). Interest rates are climbing faster than new models can hit the lots. Sales are trending downward beyond seasonal expectations. And production runs are being shortened. GM is already looking at eliminating more shifts across their US plants due to the macro factors stifling auto sales. I actually don't think those prices are out of line, that were posted for used vehicles. The 2016 SS can be had for 30k, the 2017 for 32k and 2018 for 34k. They lose 10k at the end of their first year and a couple grand each year after that. By 2020, when 2021 models are selling, the 2016's will be available for close to 25k and nobody will be surprised. Even the 2017 ZL1's will be available for 38-40k at that time. The unicorn of used car deals would be a CPO ZL1 that's 3 years old for 42-45k with under 30k miles. The bang for buck ratio and 36/70k remaining powertrain warranty will be a true bargain when you look at how fast inflation is jacking up vehicle TCO. |
