WTB: 2018 1le or Loaded 2SS

ParisTNDude · 03-16-2019, 09:08 AM

My awesome 2017 Camaro 1le was declared totaled and I'm waiting for a final settlement on that which may occur today. So, I'm searching earnestly for a replacement car. Here's what I would like to find:

A 2018 1le with PDR. Color isn't the most important thing but Hyper Blue Metallic would best fit my need since I bought some HBM accessories. The second would be Garnet Red Metallic and thirdly Garnet Red Metallic in that order. I would like to be at or under $35,500 depending on options and accessories on the car.

A 2018 2SS with options. I would like to have an 8A transmission. Sun roof is not important and I would rather not have it because of the head room. Same color options as above.

I would consider a C5 Z06 as an alternative, but I bought a couple grand worth of accessories for MY car and they sit in the garage waiting for a suitable car. I hate having to sell the items as that's a pain, but would if a Corvette shows up.

Either one must be in pristine and near new condition and one owner. Minor blemishes such as minor rock chips are reasonable. I would expect mileage to be at or below 10,000 and that it have a valid factory warranty. Minor mods including headers and other bolt ons would be an exception to the warranty issue. It would not be acceptable if warranty work had been denied for whatever reason. The closer to Memphis or Nashville Tennessee the better but travel to finalize the purchase is not out of the question. I would not like a California car.

I know there are some listed on the forum that meet all of my expectations and I haven't ruled any of those out but most are a fairly long distance away.

I have a pre-approved loan to cover any amount for either car. If you have something that might interest me and come close to my expectations, please post or PM me. Thanks.

MY SEARCH HAS ENDED! I made an agreement to buy a loaded 2SS from Weber Chevy in St Louis. I found it while searching on Cars.com. The discount was huge and it had everything you could possibly ask for on a Camaro. It's not exactly a replacement for a 1le, but it will be fun never-the-less.

Good to hear!!! Enjoy!

Thanks man. I thought paying a used 1le price for a brand new $48,700 2SS made a lot of sense. The only thing I don't like about 6th gen 2SS Camaros was the ugly rear deck lid spoiler. The one I bought has a very nice appearing blade spoiler and I like it. I had a 2016 same color, and configured very close to this one and I kicked myself for selling it. Now I can be happy again.
