coolwelder, under that scenario I would probably advise telling the salesman that his mother is a 3 dollar whore before walking out and heading to another dealership. If it's true that 17 people are going to agree to pay $25,000 abover sticker for a new Camaro, then I want the phone numbers of those 17 people so I can sell them copies of my new "GET RICH QUICK" CASSETTE TAPE PROGRAM...YOU'RE SATISFACTION GUARANTEED OR YOUR MONEY BACK. PLEASE ALLOW 180 TO 270 DAYS FOR A FULL REFUND. ORDER NOW!!!!!

Its sad to think that somone wants a ZR1 so bad they would pay 35,000.00 over sticker for one. Are they really that great of of car. You would think that the dealer ship would be happy just to sell a 115,000.00 car in these times. The salesman was kinda snobish when I ask the selling price. Because there was no window sticker in the car. So I geuss I will just keep what I have, And thats a sale GM will not get this month. If I was selling my product in this manner The groverment would step in and call it price gouging.

Why would GM not get the sale? What's stopping you from going to another Chevy dealer?

Hopefully when the cars hit the lots the dealers will be in a different mode of selling. Does anyone think that good deals are going to happen more now than later? If it is possible to get a better deal now from a dealer ,how would they guarantee it and how would you know? How would you even know if the dealer is going to be there? Not that I would worry about getting the car because the main supplier is not the dealer and the real contract is with GM.

To get mad about a car that you can't take delivery on immediately is just kind of premature to me.

What time are they promising the delivery date for them ?

Plenty of time for me to decide one way or another!!!

Yellow Camaro for a Silver Vibe, that's what I am thinking !!!

These dealerships always forget that these cars that they try to price gouge us on are pleasure cars that we don't really need but I just let them know if they want to gouge me on my toys I won't buy my dd there either. I buy one or two cars a year and I don't mind driving a few miles to make my purchase after I waste there sales persons time showing me the car. Six months ago I went to place a deposit on a SRT Challenger at my local small town dealership, I was informed that they were taking bids on there allotment of three cars, I was willing to pay sticker and had cash, I told them I'd pass and purchased a 300C off ebay and saved myself 20 grand. They ended up dealer trading at least one of the three.... Maybe I'll never even buy one now that the new has worn off.... HA HA..... way to treat someone with money in thier pocket. I guess there is always some other sucker for them to make their money on.
