actually sounds about right. 30k KBB is a dream, never going to get that private party unless somebody really stupid with a lot of money happens along. upper 20's is a realistic number. like any other business, a car dealership exists to make money. the only way they're going to do that is if they buy the car for 30% or so less than they can sell it for. maybe some of that goes into a fountain
, but most is used to pay the overhead (taxes, lease, utilities, insurances etc) and the employees. it's really not that complicated, and kind of surprising how few people actually understand it. sure, in fantasy land you could buy a car a $1 over cost, get free maintenance, repairs and then sell it for the same amount the dealership could resell it for. but that would be fantasy land, not reality. and add to that the camaro is a low appeal car that will probably sit on the lot for quite awhile.
