Great...I'm getting a courtesy delivery through them ( nice - courtesy delivery through courtesy chevrolet with the not-so courteous markup). Work with forum vendor has been fabulous. This part makes me nervous tho, and more now with this info.

Nothing like a little price gouge! Not happening with me!! I'll keep my C6 if that's the game.

The Laguna Blue car is a Premier Edition. BG is building 500 coupes and 500 convertibles and yes, they have a special sequence vin. The dealers did not order them and didn't know they were getting them. The idea was that since they were not presold, the dealers would be able to put it on the show room floor and use them for marketing purposes. Please do not mistake my comment for any type of acceptance of what Courtesy is doing. As we all know, they own the car and can ask any thing they wish. My dealer sold their Premier Edition at MSRP and were happy to have a satisfied customer.

CRAZY!!! If people pay 25k above sticker price, then that's them. I guess they like getting bent over and taking 1.

Glad I wasn't the only one that noticed that. Simply horrendous! :eek:

I think I've fallen off the fence on this new car..........:cheers:

These dealers are the reason the Tesla sales model is going to take over. This is also why the dealers of America are trying to do everything so that that model never works.

I understand being five or so thousand upside down driving off a dealers lot on a new car purchase with zero down. BUT 40K!! As said earlier, there is a fool born every min....

Idiots.... how would you like to be the guy that knows he was raped and still know he might as well made a $25,000 pile in his yard and burned it. A year from now he'll be crying in his pillow and even more so when others will be driving the same car at used car prices.

Jimbob26 10-24-2013 02:37 PM

Looking at this another way is the Ferrari customer, who often must pay gobs above MSRP and wait a good bit for a car that is overpriced to begin with. You see an F12 with an MSRP of ~$285K but will fetch close to $350-400K optioned out. Now that's crazy.

As for paying $25K over MSRP for this dealer's C7 I wouldn't (and didn't do it, I paid MSRP). An informed buyer would do his/her research and find out they could get a car at MSRP elsewhere, or order from a Forum dealer at MSRP. An uninformed buyer...well there you go.

I'm sure they don't care. If someone is foolish enough to buy it they are happy.

But they are using that as a bargaining chip to sell their remaining 2013 inventory. IMO

If they charged me 25K over MSRP, I wouldn't have been able to buy the car.

It's really that simple. It wouldn't even be a choice for me.

GM needs to do something about this dealership...

89vette 10-25-2013 08:23 AM

I think its the dealers right to charge whatever they want to for their cars. They need to strike while the iron is hot. Let's face it, it won't be long before they are discounting and offering rebates to move these.

A fool and his money are soon parted.

That Chevy dealer should have his franchise yanked and stuffed up his @#$%^^&*

Why? You don't have to shop there. Soon the government will be choosing what car you drive anyway. :D Like others have said supply and demand.
Some people think paying msrp is ridiculous.

PLRX 10-30-2013 08:38 PM

This crap reminds me when the C4 ZR-1s came out. Many dealers were selling them for $100,000, and they sold them.

Yes, $100K 20+ years ago.

lt4obsesses 10-30-2013 11:38 PM

Seriously, for $100K you could buy a gently used ZR1 or a new 427 Vert and take a really nice roadtrip to Vegas for a week or two of debauchery. (Or shows, depending on who's in the passenger seat)

Never-Enough 10-30-2013 11:44 PM

$20k worth of options making it $75k?! Jesus, that's too much for a non Z car.
