Id pretty much say that. They only built 2k. Unless you know where you could find one new for less?

Gm is not my fav company. Not because of the cars but its because they owe the Tax payers a shit ton of money. They keep building these niche cars they need to be selling volume. There new truck is behind the Fseries still and its brand new!

Dealer markup doesn't represent the price of the car. The MSRP is the actual vehicle price. Factoring dealer markup as the car's price is just like including the cost of an extended warranty or GAP.

We all knew that. And that is perfectly fine. I don't have a favorite manufacturer, there are just cars that I do and don't like across the board. Some are built by Ford, some from GM, some from Toyota.

I stated the reason I dont. They build some fast cars but thats my only gripe. As far as the sticker goes for dealer markup you cant remove it like gap or a warranty. They car will sell for that or it will sit because they jknow someone will pay that.

The dealer will remove it when/if a car doesn't sell. For those that order cars, you don't go on the manufacturer's website and choose to add in a dealer markup. You choose the car, options, and bam, there's your price. You just go to the dealership and pick it up. But I do get your point about GAP and an extended warranty. So let's say, state taxes and registration. You can't avoid those, but those items don't represent the actual price of the car.

If you go to a dealership and ask "How much is this car?" they will refer you to the sticker and then say "but we are selling it for this amount.

Price($56,000) + markup($4,000) doesn't equal price. It just means you paid $60,000 for a $56,000 car. The price and what you pay for the car are not the same thing.

Im not saying it is. Im saying thats what your going to pay, unless you find a dealer that is willing to sell it to you at cost. Shelby's are going through the samething.

Exactly, we are on the same page .

My point was never, what someone chooses to pay for it. It was always, the actual price of the car, which was the debate.
