So the next time you’re talking to a new owner and he says he paid over MSRP, kick him in the nuts and throw his keys in the bushes.
What you have to remember is that the dealer probably turned away multiple people who wanted a car and were willing to pay MSRP. That doesn't matter to the dealer when he's making $10k over, but it sure as hell screws GM. They're making the same profit per car so the dealer turning people away hurts GM.
