$50,000 Camaro's have arrived!!

[Blacdout96]

Went by Kerbeck Corvette last night, and they have 4 Camaro's there. Three black and one yellow with black stripes. I look at the sticker for the 2LT Yellow Camaro, and was $33,300. Not too shabby, went over and looked at the three black camaro's lined up, the next was a bare bones camaro, no RS, only thing it had was a sunroof, they wanted $28,700, me likey, 6 speed all black, and standard rims, which is just what I like, but the sunroof turned me off right there.

So now I go to take a look at the two V8 Camaro's there. one all black, another with two white hockey stripes, and a white stripe on the cowling of the hood, hideous to say the least. It's auto and has those crappy looking two tone chrome and black rims on it, installed by the dealer. I look a t the price and almost crap my pants, they want $46,350!! I started flipping **** rigth there. It already had the $5,000 dealer mark up..... So I go to the next one, 6 speed, and no stripes. Im thinking this one has to be less since it's got manual and no str....NOPE this one is $47,915. Both of these cars had the $5,000 mark up right on them, and when my friend asked why, I said it's better not to ask because the ******** coming out of thier mouth for the reason is rediculous.

So a salesman comes out, and already workign with these people, you can feel the slime coming off of him. He talks to my one friend a little bit while they are over at the yellow car, and the salesmans points out the dealertags on it, this is how the conversation went:.

Sales: You see those dealer tags on there?
Josh: Yea?
Sales: God drives this car
Josh: That's funny, why would God drive a V6 Camaro?

The salesman was stumped for a couple seconds and then said this line:

Sales: Because God likes to Jizz all over this color.

The conversation ended there, but for being the worlds largest corvette dealership, they are also the worlds biggest shiesters in selling Camaro's, AND the Soltice GXP. They got the hardtops there for $40,000+....No wonder Pontiac is gonna go under, and the Camaro will soon follow


I'll post photos later fro mmy phone.

Ive seen IOM cars with stripes, wheels and IOM interior go for 50+k.

All American has 5 Camaros parked out front, 3 V6, 2 V8's.

[jims69camaro]

they will sell one or two with the inflated price. then the cars will sit. and sit. and sit. then they will remove the inflated price. and the cars will sit. and sit. then they will start haggling for below MSRP. this is why i am waiting. i watched it happen with the GTO to the point that the new cars came out and they still had leftovers from the previous year.

all you have to do is wait. and you might even be able to pick up a used one with low mileage ( <16k ). wait. see if i ain't right.

[Blacdout96]

Oh I know, let the yuppies with money to piss to buy them first, and then when the prices can be touched by the normal person, then its time to look.

p.s. i just got this email from "your chevy team":

Dear James,

This summer, you can get low, straight forward pricing on remaining 2008 and 2009 Chevy models¹ at the Chevy Open House event.

See how we stack up against the competition:

• Chevy offers more models than Toyota and Honda with an EPA estimated 30 MPG highway or better

• Malibu offers an EPA estimated 33 MPG highway. That's better highway fuel economy than a comparable Toyota Camry or Honda Accord²

• Traverse offers more cargo space than Honda Pilot or Toyota Highlander

And it gets even better because every new Chevy includes the Best Coverage in America — a fully transferable 100,000-Mile/5-Year³ Powertrain Limited Warranty, plus Roadside Assistance and Courtesy Transportation Programs.³

So, what are you waiting for? Shop online, then head to your Chevy Dealer before July 31, 2009.

Sincerely,

Your Chevy Team

with the normal disclaimers:

1 At participating dealers. Tax, title, license, dealer fees and optional equipment extra. Take delivery by 7/31/09. Not available with some other offers. Excludes Chevy Corvette ZR1.

2 2009 Malibu with 2.4L 4-cylinder engine and 6-speed automatic transmission offers 33 MPG highway. 2010 Toyota Camry with 2.5L 4-cylinder engine with 6-speed automatic transmission offers 32 MPG highway. 2009 Honda Accord with 2.4L 4-cylinder engine and 5-speed automatic transmission offers 30 MPG highway.

3 Whichever comes first. See dealer for details.

no mention of the camaro. and since it's dealer participation dependent, my guess is that they will keep on jacking the prices until the car starts to sit on the lot.

i like the old saying: "you can skin a sheep only once. however, you can shear a sheep for many years." paraphrased, of course. i have no idea who said it first and they probably didn't use my words, but you get the meaning. you can rob someone blind only once, but if you steal a little bit you can do so for years...

for that kind of markup i'd rather buy a GT500.

Bingo. I love the Camaro, but 50K for a 422 hp Camaro First year, or 50K for a 540 hp Mustang. Of course were forgetting the dealer mark up on the GT500, making it probably around 60K.

[firebirdcrazy]

50000 you can go for the slp camaro

[Frosty]

They can afford to let a hot new car sit until they get what they want. Having a $46K Camaro sitting around, or even a few is a drop in the bucket to them.

For that kind of money I'd get a 'vette and never look back...sorry but the Camaro isn't THAT nice...certainly not $46K nice.

AHA! thats the point...mark up the camaro...compare it to their corvettes at the same price and either walk away selling a camaro with 5-10k markup or selling a corvette....win/win.



rofl @ god likes to jizz on this color

[Blacdout96]

I wonder later in life when people who bought the first year Camaro will gather and wont be bragging about what mods, or what options their came with, more so who got more sheistered when they bought it.

....the price of being one of the first to have something.

[Crayface]

Dammm thats a lottt of money! whats the MSRP for the base v-8 model?

[maroman88]

like 30k

[Crayface]

Oh alright thats not too bad, i will be picking up one of those hopefully by next year this time. But 50K for that is nucking futs

[Blacdout96]

Not too bad??....its 16-18K over the MSRP, you could buy another car with that much over the MSRP.

[Savage_Messiah]

Tell them for 50 grand they better be throwing in a Cobalt

lol

[madness410]

theres going to be a few retards who buy them marked up like that. but once it gets driven off the dealer lot the price falls drastically. id say wait a year or two and you will find them for a lot cheaper used with low miles..but not new

Perhaps those foolish enough to pay a markup would.

I paid MSRP for mine and had no problem doing it. Over MSRP wasn't happening though.

Why do so many sound shocked at the sound of a $45,000+ Camaro? It's easy to do if you add the 21" wheels, stripes, GFX and other dealer installed options.

Personally the only things I'd like to add to mine are the GFX and Heritage Grille when I can afford to get them AND have them painted to match. The wheels cost entirely too much to me.

$37,5?? was the price on mine. (2SS, Auto, RS, Sunroof)

I think he meant that 30k wasn't too bad.

[BigAls87Z28]

Hey Bonzo! Remember you were talking about how stupid GM was for not offereing a Bumble Bee Package?
Well for $995, you now can get one!

[NastyEllEssWon]

1000 dollars for Badges, Embroidery and CENTER CAPS!!! ZOMG


shoot me dead. the only bumblebee id buy is the z28 looking one

Were shocked cause the economy isn't in the best of shapes, dealerships are closing down, and begging for customers to buy....yet they have the balls to try and **** up a car people have waited years to come out with by slapping on prices that make it more sensible to just go get a Corvette and be done with. This is how the GTO died IMO, it was a good car, but the dealerships jacked the price up on them.

I love the new Camaro, but with prices like this, it makes it hard for me to imagine why anyone would be buying them right now, especially first year cars.
