I also live in NE Ohio and there is no way you should pay above sticker. If you check the list on this site for dealers selling at msrp you will find that the ride will be worth it. Listed in your area is Bob Pulte in Lebanon, Serpentini in Strongsville and Pat O'brien in Westlake (the last two are west of Cleveland). The problem is whether they have any of their allotment left. Also, on this forum check out the Regional Forum - USA Great Lakes for this years big event and the f-body summit. This is the biggest and best show around your area. |

Dealer Name: Marathon Chevrolet of North Charleston
Dealer location: North Charleston, SC Dealer phone number: Sales: (843) 553-9000 Dealer website: marathonchevy.com Just got their dealer car in and went to look. Red 1LT, RS with Convenience and connectivity. 7k markup for total of 35k. Asked about ordering a yellow 2lt and was told Chevrolet might not be making the Camaro until 2011 or 2012 once this allocation production ends. Our car would be between 41 and 42k. No bargaining or discounts. Saleslady referred to the "list" of interested people and vaguely threatened that I wouldn't be able to get one if I didn't order now. Real hard sell tactic. I walked and am not going back. What's another few months, right? |

I'll have to give him a call tomorrow and see what they are asking for the Camaro in light of all the dealerships pricing above MSRP. I do agree with you that we should not have to pay above sticker, and I was just pointing out before that if they are all doing it, then Great Lakes Chevy in Ashtabula with their 1K over MSRP would be the best bet. It will be interesting what Pat O'brien is charging. I'll post here when I find out! |

Price gouging is illegal. Use the key words PRICE GOUGING on-line and there should be a form to send to your Attorney General in your state. If you can convience them of gouging, the dealer can be fined ($25,000 in North Carolina).

I know quite a few and believe me that airport security screeners are doing one hell of a good job.

Gun-decking...the art of signing off a job without actually doing it. I imagine that is what some QC inspectors are doing to meet demand...bad juju.

Building an iPod, and building a car are two differnt things, forst of all apple does not build per order... they just build, they did not build those 100 iPod just for you then have them engraved... they were built already engraved then sent to you... they are producing them as fast as they want and or need to... they have been making them for a whie now... the Camaro is still in the process of ramping up production, the bigger an item is, the longer it takes to build it, the iPod is tiny, it takes maybe an hour to build once you have all the parts, the Camaro takes 4 days from what I understand. Also I remember when the iPhone 3G was released, you could not buy them until Apple had built thousands of them and had them ready in the stores. Why? because when the first gen came out the were selling faster than they could be built. I guarantee you had they taken pre-orders they would have been in a similar situation, ut not for as long, as they can produce a lot more iPod's and phone in a day than they do cars. So I am sorry but your analogy is quite flawed... as far as the gouging dealer... file a complaint to GM, maybe they get put on the ax list... That's one way to get dealers attention about doing that in this economy.

Hope the UPS Truck----
I hope the UPS truck shows up at all these crooked dealers with the letter from GM saying they are not renewing their franchises, see how far the overcharging will carry them

He also told me that they have about 10 available orders to fill, and after that, it will most likely be it till next year! Is that correct? When dealerships complete their allocations, we're screwed until next year unless we order one now?? Or was that a marketing ploy to get me in there? |

jking,
That is not a marketing ploy. The dealer I ordered my car with had five slots and that was it. After that I guess GM will inform them when they can start ordereing again. I believe no one knows that answer yet. |
