Dealerships NEW CAR adjusted mark ups

I don't think it's illegal because they're doing it with the New Shelby.

No it's not illegal, matter of fact I recently e-mailed Scott S. about the possibility of this (ADP) happening on the new Camaro if and when it comes out. I told him this additional dealer mark-up will probably ruin possible record sales for the new Camaro, since many prospective buyers will be priced out of the market. He responded that GM is very furious about the ADP, but nothing can be done since it would be a violation of anti-trust laws for a manufacturer to demand a product to be sold at MSRP. This works on the upside as well as the downside of pricing. I guess the new Camaro will take its place next to the new T-Bird. C

MAP pricing is in effect for virtually every product from deodorant to TVs, so I don't see why GM couldn't find a way to at least reward dealers who don't take advantage of the situation. Granted the dealers have the right, and we as buyers, have the right to boycott and spread the bad word.

Darn, this reminds me of the $10k scam John Megel Chev. up in Dawsonville, GA tried to pull on me this past summer!
