camaro question
hey guys, i might buy a 96 camaro.
it has 90,000 miles on it, and is in pretty good condition. Its an auto, had cloth interior, and these options: Driver Air Bag; Anti-Lock Brakes; Air Conditioning; Alloy Wheels; Cruise Control; Passenger Air Bag; Rear Window Defroster; Power Seats; Power Door Locks; Power Mirrors; Power Windows; Power Steering; Sunroof/Moonroof; Tinted Glass; Tilt Wheel; it also has the 3.8L engine. how much would this car be worth? Dealers website says $4000, and on the cars window, it says $5000. Thanks EDIT** oh yea, how hard woulkd it be to drop an LS1 in the car? What about a 3800 III supercharged? thanks

Re: camaro question
Well $4,000 isn't to bad from a dealer, of course you can try to talk them down. As for the LS1 swap its been discussed and plan on spending $10k+, so I would recomend the 3.8L FFF turbo, check out camarov6.com for more info because a lot of kits are on sale there and a few guys are currently running with them.

'96 had the 3.4 not the 3.8... the first year of the 3.8 was '97
someone correct me if i'm wrong but i'm 99% sure

Re: camaro question
yeah u are wrong, my car is a 96 3.8, and the difference in the 96 and 97 is the pcm on the 96 cant be tuned u need a 97 or newer one if u want to tune it. maybe thats what u were thinking. but the price isnt bad they wanted 5700 for mines a year and a half ago when i got her but i managed to get her around 4k. and the ls1 swap is what im doing as we speak, and it aint cheap. i wont go out and say 10k but its up there. if u shop smart u can do it for 6-7.5k alot of folks will tell u to just buy the ls1 car but i say damn that...i dont know about u, but i want the newer camaro engine without the bug headlights in front of my car like the ls1's have..(i hate those lights). go for it kid, and when u have the cash for the swap do that as well

Re: camaro question
Is the 3800 series III front wheel drive only? But i think the turbo setup would be better.

haha, i should have let the v6 guys talk first... i guess i just assumed the '97 was the first year of the 3.8 because alot of people have said that a '97 v6 is the most desirable of the '93-'97 v6's...

Re: camaro question
In 95 they offered the 3.4 as base and 3.8 as an option
same w/ 96 and 97 they made the 3.8 standard and scraped the 3.4
