More Absurd Price Gouging! This is nuts! Pictures included... - Page 3 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

They are all over the place on google for extra charge ripoffs. Marking up the price without asking the customer or the last moment. Ancira is the Fail.

I like the lifetime tire rotations included for the SS and RS V6 cars... LOL! "Duh, thanks guys!!!"

CruznSS · 07-30-2009, 03:47 PM

What can I say here, If you were smart and ordered at msrp, and had the patience to wait for one, thats the best way. I admit to paying 5k over, however, I signed paperwork on thursday, picked her up on monday and only had 8 miles on od when I drove off the lot. If you order car it has to be at msrp, as for the dealership I bought from (Holidays of Williamsburg VA) they have been top notch with me from day 1. Have helped me with everything I've needed and 1st oil change was free!

I'm with you Optimus!!

What an idiot that dealer is!! LIFETIME tire rotations, what a joke!

They must think people are so dumb! Oh....... on second thought, maybe some are...not us tho!! They can't fool us!! The Camaro5 team rules!!

Optimus Prime · 07-30-2009, 04:12 PM

Oh wait, you mean you CAN'T rotate the tires on an SS or RS V6? Oh, right... cause they're OFFSET!! And here I thought I was getting a great deal for $15,000...

I told him good luck with that as supply will surpass demand shortly and he'll be stuck with auction cars soon and not be able to sell them or they would take a loss...he just shruged his shoulders at me!

Of course this is the same guy who told me the Z28 was coming next year and that each dealer only got 2 allocations...I ask to order one and he said not yet...I'll let you know!

I called Vara Chevyrolet in San Antonio and they said they never sell over MSRP no matter what vehicle, you might want to check there buddy

Today, as the owner of a successful General Motors dealership, I'm selling some of the best cars money can buy. The values I learned from my father, his work ethic and the dreams he had for our family are at the root of my success with GM today. In fact, the quality of the training and support I receive from GM shows me that they too share my father's values. You know, I bet my dad would have made a heck of a GM dealer.
here is their phone number 210-924-2000

$37,995?

I paid less $1900 less than that for a 2SS with $2590 in options including tax tag and title.

What a sham!

edog · 07-31-2009, 06:20 AM

Those v6s are more than I paid for my 2ss. How stupid can a dealership be?

Huh....my 2SS with $1670 in options comes out to about $37,500 (rounded up).

How is it possible that yours was $36,095.00 considering the MSRP is $33,430? With $2,590 in options that brings it up to $36,020 and with taxes at 6% in Michigan wouldn't that add up to be $38,181.20? That still doesn't account for titling and licensing, stealership fees, etc.

Did you get a discount off the MSRP? Did they give you your options for free? I need to get in on that action!

When asked about gouging, a dealer in W. Va. (can't remember the name) said his daddy had taught him the saying, "You can shear a sheep year after year, or you can skin him once." I love that!

nUcLeArEnVoY · 07-31-2009, 07:48 PM

Why is this shit still going on, man? Especially for the V6's? God, this better be over when I start shopping.

I read this too....and it is the God honest truth! I wish there were dealers like that guy's around here.

There is a local dealer here in town that my boss and I feel is notorious for high prices and bad service... Upon visiting their website to see what they have in stock, they have a Cyber Grey 2SS with black stripes (not sure of options, but doesn't matter). Folsom Chevrolet's asking price:

$52,467 !!!!!!!

Can't imagine the markup. Makes a grown man want to cry.
