I was at a show last Sunday - on a dealers lot... They had 5 V8's on the lot - all $9995 over MSRP... They were still there at the end of the day, and all anyone could talk about was what a "rip off" this dealer was... despite them supporting a hot rod show.

I've paid MSRP for 2 cars in my life - a special ordered 650i Convertible... and an M5... (the M5 sucked but that's another discussion and I have since sold it). I also waited for the SRT 8 300 to come off in price and bought one at a steep discount (since sold it too -- too much plastic and it was noisy even with the MagnaFlow exhaust).

I'd buy a new Camaro tomorrow but won't out of spite for the stupid dealers. Besides which - I HATE THE PROCESS of buying a new car. You have to spend all day with some toothless moron that doesn't know a 6 from an 8... can't make a sale... and can't quote a price even if you offered MSRP!

Now - ask me how I really feel....
