you have not seen any thing yet. Driving reviews have not even come out. They will start coming out at the end of April. This will get worse than better for the first 6 months

Given the fact that the $50k over data is simply dealer asks that nobody has reported anybody accepting yet, I wouldn't base anything on that.

Maybe this is what they are looking for when asking for $50K over in the first place.
Then when they start to ask for $10~$15K over, it looks much more 'reasonable'.

This makes sense.

Isn't Champion also trying to pimp their 31 allocations at $25k over too? Good thing those stealers don't have my name or I'll straight up laugh at them on the phone before I hung up.

Its the two way laughing game.


Dealers call buyers for 50k mark up, people laugh and hang up.


Buyers call dealers to buy for MSRP after the car debut, dealers laugh and hang up.


Both sides keep laughing until one side laugh louder than the other.

Porsche dealers are trying to play the Ferrari game. Don't fall for it. No car is worth more than MSRP IMHO.

It's a great game when those holding the cars (dealers) as museum pieces have their money tied up and aren't selling the cars!

149 cars here!

Pompous bricks, I would urge everybody to deal with Park Place Dallas over Plano.

Maybe I'm not reading this correctly, but are you implying that ParkPlace is charging ADM now?

Only 10 saved favorites? I am disappointed :P


Haha yea the used car's cost perspective for dealers is quite different though. We're talking about laughing at selling new orders at MSRP/mark-up. Used will now be a completely different story.
