Camaro Z/28 Pre-Order
I called my dealer the day after Camaro5 announced the Z/28 was a go and had him put my name on the list for the #1 to order and he did. I just emailed him to make sure I would get the car for MSRP with no markup, just like we did when we pre-ordered the camaro back in December. Now he writes me back and says this,
"I'm not sure yet. The Z28 will sell over MSRP, but I will make it very competitive." Competitive? I already told him I have my name on other lists at other dealerships that are offering MSRP at no markup, how can he compete with that? What a JackA** |

They, clearly, care about bending you over more than obtaining future business from you.

You realize they don't have to honor your place in line at all, right? It's so far out there's no telling what pricing will be, or when production will start.

2- Why would any dealer "promise" MSRP on a product they know nothing about? For all we know whats coming could be a limited production car.... your not going to get that at MSRP. |

If you personally know the finance manager you can usually be assured that you won't pay over MSRP. I got one of the first GXP's in NC and I didn't pay over sticker. Every other dealership I called wanted a minimum of $2500 over MSRP.

I would bet that most dealers will try and get over MSRP just like most dealers did on the regular SS when she first came out. And some people will pay over MSRP just to say they got a Z28 before the majority of everyone else.

promising MSRP this early is pretty crazy, good thing he didn't take a deposit, he'd probably be fired pretty soon....
A few salesman got fired over the same thing back in october november last year with the 2010 models

They can have a list..... there have been Z28 lists out there for a loooooooong time now.
I just dont see someone promising MSRP this early in the game. |
