GMS,etc Status on Camaro?!
Allocations we know are controlled for the launch pretty much the first year of Camaro.
Good question has come up about GM employee, dealership employee, GM supplier purchase opportunities. In years past GM would not even allow such a purchase on launch vehicles until production was moving full steam ahead. IMPORTANT TO NOTE: full dealer discretion on these programs, but those authorization numbers will be allowed if a dealer so chooses… I think we know the answer to that for a while, but nice to hear GM is not blocking them. More news as we have it! |

Can you explain to "us" once and for all how GMS/GMU affects your profit on the vehicle? My understanding is that you're basically "out" the profit between the discounted price (assuming you accept it) and what you could have sold the vehicle to someone like me (without discount) for. Is that correct or does GM rebate you any of the difference?

All of the new invoices show the amount that the dealer gets reimbursed for GSU (supplier) sales as well as the amount for GMS (employee) sales. Most of the time it brings the dealer back to making only the holdback. But that pays for interest, the lights, the office staff, etc.

I'm glad I went through the trouble of getting a dealer to agree to honoring any applicable discounts/incentives. I think the only reason they did was because they thought GM wasn't going to do it. Let's just hope they don't try and screw me over.

I was able to get the same deal in writing after walking away from the dealership on the first visit. The dealer was so confident that GM would not offer any incentives. I am glad that I stuck to my instincts and did not listen to them. But those few days waiting for the dealer call back was a little nerve racking.

So if we had an MSRP price, what is the formula to figure out the Supplier price?

If you qualify for Supplier and the dealer chooses to accept Supplier pricing, it'll be printed on the invoice. The formual is for calculating dealer profit not for figuring Supplier price.
