If I'm not mistaken, I think GM sends the dealer some money for every GMS/GMU discounted sale. So they definitely will still make some money.

I said up front I have
no issues with, in this case your father (you) deserving the discount- he did work for it and is entitled to it. Yes, GM in the case of the employee apparently gives the MEMO money back (see->

but the dealer still loses compared to an MSRP sale. This isn't about the dealers who are trying to charge 5k over MSRP- screw them- this is about the dealers who should be able to make MSRP while they can during the initial launch. I found out after the fact that I am eligible for "supplier". IMO, if I want it, I understand that I should have to wait until MSRP sales can no longer be attained. It's not forever, it's not the entire model year. We're probably talking until October when 2010's are normally released anyways. So how screwed would you be getting if you got your discount when every other 2010 model starts flowing into the dealers? I chose to keep my spot in line, at MSRP, so I can have the car early. I don't think it's unfair to make the discounts wait until later- that's all.
