Hawthorne Chevy SUCKS!

So, I was out w/ a couple friends (wifey, misterjuice etc) and we passed by Hawthorne Chevy and noticed two new camaro's - one red and one yellow.

We stopped by to look at them.

So, the yellow w/ black striped one was a 2LT v6
Leather interior
RS package
Ugly stick on stripes - looked dealer installed

Window sticker had a piece of paper covering the MSRP - it just said call the dealer.

We then looked at the red one. It was a v6 with the 1LT package
options:
6 speed auto
rs package

They had the MSRP covered and had ia piece of paper listing it for $38,995?!?!?!?! Yes, ALMOST $39,000!!!!!

I went to chevy's web site and it should be $27,420!!!

We are talking over $10,000 mark up?!?!?!

I don't even want t know what they want for the yellow one - my guess is probably just over $40,000 as it was a 2LT!

And what would they charge for an SS????? $50,000+????

Now, I understand supply vs. demand........ and "market adjustment" (which is a crock of ***** but legal) but this is just plain stupid!

One could just get a covette for the same price. $10,000+ increase in the price while the economy is in the crapper and GM is in horrible shape is just plain stupid - no wonder GM is where it is now.

I felt really good getting into my challenger While it may be slower...... it costs a HELL of a lot less
