[QUOTE=shnomac77;398361]Some other sides of the coin....




[QUOTE=Evotion;398277]Welcome to the site... there got that out of the way.

You can say whatever you want about your reason for selling these cars on Ebay.

The fact is... if every dealer in the country had the same attitude, then NO ONE would have been able to get a Camaro.

Every dealer does not have the same attitude.... your right. So it's our choice to either find a MSRP dealer or pay crazy amounts..... There is always some yahoo who has more money than you who is willing to use it to jump you inline. Thats why these guys still exist.



Owning and racing Camaro's does NOT make you an enthusiast. Owning, racing and spreading the "Camaro love" makes you an enthuiast.

Just because he is trying to make money does not make him less of an enthusit...... thats just your opinion

Your right... my opinion, but I would not screw someone out of a Camaro... would you?


This is sooooo typical of what is wrong with most businesses in America. The rich get richer, and the average American takes it in the gas can.

I dont see how the average american is taking in the "gas can"....if their the one choosing to spend more

That one was fueled by the current economic situation. Granted, we have always been a society based on making a profit no matter what the cost... that doesn't mean that people can't change their ways to improve a situation... obviously not everyone will.

YOU... are one of the reasons sales of American built cars are down almost 45%, YOU... are one of the reasons that consumers are scared of buying American. Personally I don't care if you "sleep well at night".

Simply not fact...just an opinion. It doesnt matter wether its american or foreign any dealer will mark up a car if people are willing to pay for it.

Opinion? Maybe. Give me a useless $500k government grant to at least study if I am right or not What I mean is... how do we now that people don't run over to the Chevy dealer, look at the price and say "whoa... huge mark-up", then they run across the street and see the same mark-up on the Toyota, now since the country is under the impression that american quality is in the tank, and there is no incentive what-so-ever, what do you think they would do? Not saying I'm right... what I'm saying is this is an example of what not to do to save the industry right now.

.......In the end -- You and other dealers like you, will eventually suck the life out the American auto industry.

Only if we buy from them and let them

See above.

Never underestimate the power of "word of mouth".
Word of mouth wont stop people from trying to make more money if there is always a market thats willing to pay more.

No... but word of mouth can keep people from making more money, i.e. GM. Pick any one of the stupid things that have been said that led to the demise of sales.


I am not saying this is right but it IS how business works....always has been always will be. If we choose to spend it...people will choose to take it. IT'S ALL UP TO US!

Agree 110%. "IT'S ALL UP TO US!" Was the point of me posting what I did, I appreciate the banter, but I am done with this thread now... my voice was heard.
