Well, I got some news from my dealer today. My final sales price, tax, title, tag-everything; out the door is $44,024 for a 2SS/RS LS3. I managed about $850 under MSRP, which was just about entirely made back up in "advertising fees" and some other rediculous scam... but im happy, my buddy paid $42 for his coupe, auto/rs/sunroof 2 yrs ago...
On another note, he did tell me my car (which is @ 4150 currently) has a delivery date of Feb 28... Im not holding my breath, and even he was hesitant to tell me that, but its a good sign! With that bit of info, I began epoxy painting the nursery... I mean garage, today in preparation of its arrival!
