I understand that maybe there are some real die-hards out there that might go for that but I'm just an average Joe. I explained to the dealer that there was a misunderstanding and all I wanted was to order the car. I did not have to have the first one delivered. In that case they said I could have a car for $5,000 over MSRP and I nearly fell out of my chair recalling some of the comments on this forum about reasonable prices, i.e anywhere near MSRP.
Am I annoyed? Absolutely. I told the sales person that for that much I would buy the car from any other state in the union and drive it back to Virginia if the deal was fair all the way around.
Maybe I am being naive about all of this. Maybe my expectations were unrealistic as I've never pre-ordered a car before. Did I walk into a buzzsaw here?
I still love everything about the 2010 Camaro and I envy those that have a decent change of getting one (but get the SS package!!).

Your dealer is a "Grade A Douchebag". Be sure and tell all your firends how wonderfully they treated you. If you read the stories here you will see that plenty of people are ordering with ZERO dealer markup. Why should you pay about 100% markup on something others get at cost.
What a Jerk your dealer is. I hope you laughed in his face.
