Default Shady people

The last two 2006 Corvette Z06's we sold, were people holding that position in line for somebody. All they did was sell the spot they had for $10K. So our manager told the last guy we are only going to title this vehicle in your name, and he didn't want to do it so now we are stuck we a Velocity Yellow Z06 anybody interested? You always hit me on aim, or cell 2145784664

I though MSRP was $65,800? So $5k over would be a drive out of $70,800. Or are you asking $69,450 + $5k for a total of $74,450?

Yes they are superior to many vehicle higher in price range. From the couple of guys that I have talked with said the Z06 rides smoother than the "tour" mode on select ride and many times better than the Z51. The guy that bought the red one traded in his 2005 Red Z51. The guy that was trying to buy this one was going to trade in his 2005 Yellow Z51, both people side they love the ride quality.

So your manager is shady...LOL! But he effects the price people pay for the vehicle. Anything over MSRP is WRONG!
Therefore I will wait. Besides I want Red, for me there is no other colors. All of my Vettes have been Red, and I've owned 5 so far.

At least your aware of it...LOL! Chevy has been generous as it is by invoicing it at around $53k to the dealers and allowing a $65k MSRP. That's around $12k profit as it is! Anyone trying to make even more by gouging and taking advantage of availability is just plain greedy in my book. There will be plenty available soon enough, so I can wait another year or two if that's what it takes to get one at MSRP. Besides if I am spending that much I will not settle for what color is available vs what I want.

Dean, this is nothing. A sales guy at the Parkway Chevy in Tomball said they had 5 of them coming in. 3 were already accounted for, and they were auctioning the other 2 off. They were telling me they'd let it go for $30K over MSRP because that was what the bid was up to. Talk about shady. I basically told the guy to get bent. The only people who pay that much are either stupid or have more money than sense. I will happily wait, too. I don't have to be among the first to own one. Not sure what color it will be yet, but definitely not yellow. I really wish they had an option for a type of Magnetic Red for the Z06.
