I'm not worried about the price going up. GM can raise MSRP all they want after this "introductory pricing" but if people aren't buying the cars on the lots, dealers are going to have to sell below MSRP if they want to stay in business.
Selling the first cars to enthusiasts @ MSRP is the easy sell. Selling the rest of the production run to regular everyday people @ MSRP is going to be a heck of a lot more difficult, especially if MSRP goes up. Just as an example, I saw an ad this weekend from a local Dodge dealership...ALL 2009 Dodge Challengers - $4k off MSRP - including SRT8 and RT models. Compare that to last year and the easy selling to the Mopar nuts of the SRT8 models at prices over MSRP. Those of us that don't buy into the pre-ordering will likely end up paying less for our cars due to incentives from GM and the dealers.
