So, just how much are we overpaying for cars to begin with? I was told years ago by a guy who sold cars that dealerships don't make the bulk of their money off of vehicle sales. They make most of it off of the service side of the business.

The dealer isn't marking that car down 25k its the incentives from GM. GM itself marks the car down. The dealer gets a small fee for getting that car sold.

Correct! The Incentives from GM were close to $20k, the Dealer knew he had to kick in some $$ to move it. I think it will be there a long time (he has Two)

Awesome car.

What's the plan for it, DD, track days, "collecting"?

I think the Z will be one of the rare modern cars that holds some value. Not too many out there and a pretty special car. The MSRP is real high, but buying for 50's seems like a good deal long term.
