"GTFO" to me is less of a "never post again" and more of a "you have got to be kidding me" type of thing. My apologies, and I need to remember some short hand can be taken differently across different media and forums.

WOW Illusion you are out of line here period. You have your opinion and have passionatley stated it as has Z28 but neither of you has the right to tell a guy to GTFO or any acronym basically telling a guy to FOff/Fout etc. Each of your opinions have backers in this forum and BOTH sides have a right to be heard. We do not have to agree on evey issue YOU like nor do we have to agree with Z28 but I feel we owe each forum member a modicum of respect for giving their opinion regardless of how we feel. Thats what this forum is about to me, sharing all of our opinions about Camaro's not bashing someone who has an opposing opinion. Ronslo and I have had some spirited debates posted in here but we manage to end them all cordially, if we can so can you my friend. I think this whole link was about you not getting your way with a dealer who's immature salesperson who didnt get their way spouted off and BOTH of you are acting like grade school kids. Lets all remember why we are really here to talk about Camaro's and all the things we love and hate about them!

Let's get back on topic. We all admitted that we made a mistake or two- whether it be the postings or the interpretation of what was posted. Let it drop. We're all good...
Back to your regularly scheduled programming...

Don't use 'nobody is forcing you to buy a camaro' as an argument unless you want to see GM fail. Seriously.

The problem isn't the dealer markup, it's fair enough if they have a car in stock and they can get someone to pay the price (also fair enough if it sits in their lot because of their stupid price). The real problem is the antiquated ordering system GM (and most other manufacturers) are still using. GM should just turn Saturn into their factory-direct custom order sales center for all brands. A low number of popular 'best seller' type models in stock, but friendly no haggle sales on those few cars and any pre-orders to get exactly what you want factory ordered. This wouldn't cut out standard dealers from pre-orders at MSRP or slightly below but it would keep them from driving off GM's customers. The legalities and details would probably take time to workout with updated agreements, etc but it's long overdue.

I already have an order in, and I was simply asking them how they are handling their orders down there, and I got the answer I anticipated. I reported my finding to the community in the "Price Gouging Dealers" thread, and started this one because I found the guys reply to be funny and I wanted to share that. I had motive, and I had forethought. I am a college educated software engineer working on high profile government projects, do not insult my intelligence by calling me a "grade school kid". That being said and done, arguing in on the internet is just ridiculous and I am offering my copious amounts of apologies to anyone who read this thread and misunderstood any of what anyone is trying to say. It is done, it is over, and we are all friends again. Viva La Camaro5! Can a mod please kill this thread?

I'm sure a dealer's opinion is that selling a hot, new, limited model UNDER MSRP is wrong.
I guess everyone is entitled to their opinion.

I have one. This dealer just saw fit to return my email about 5 months late.
