It does no good to tell them you will walk unless you honor the discount. They can sell it five minutes after I walk out.

The problem with using the whole "they need the money, no matter what" argument just doesn't work with this car. Actually, I was told that even the dealer that works there that ordered a Camaro won't get a discount on it. If he can't get, what chance do we have?
I'm not talking about Elco exclusively. I'm referring to GM as a whole. But, Elco does have Silverados on there lot offering rebates/discounts up to $8k off of msrp, so they discount. Also, I work with someone who ordered a SS from Elco, and he did get a discount below msrp simply because he is friends with someone who works there, so I'm sure the Elco employees will get discounts if they buy. I will buy from the closest dealer to me that will offer GMS pricing. No sweat if that is not Elco.
