Pricing

When did you place your order???
I checked a few days ago and my dealer did not have pricing from GM.
All priceing that I have found on the web so far all say Subject to Change.

Has anyone else received final pricing??

Also, if you have a signed agreement with your dealer (not sure how you would without a price) they cannot legally renig, not in PA. Check your state laws to be sure. A freind had this happen and he had to contact the District Attorney. The dealer was fined and had to abide by the contract. This was a few years ago so check the laws of your state.

Let me rephrase that --

Your name is "Smith" - you order a new Camaro under the name 'smith" -- the dealer submits the 'sold' order with 'smith' as the name of the customer....

the price increases --

You take delivery under the name of "smith" -- you are price protected.


Your name is "smith" -- you order a new Camaro under the name of "brown" - the dealer submits the 'sold' order with 'brown" as the name of the customer....


The price increases --

You try to take delivery under the name of "smith" -- you are not price protected.

Make SURE when you order the vehicle that you order it under the name that you will take delivery under -- and register under........

Damn, that was out of left field.

i only have 1 name i plan on putting the car under.i was never told a price from them but a sales man told me msrp. as far as getting it on paper, i dont have it. is this normal that they havent given me any pricing, or i guess, that they wont lock in pricing with me? or should i really start to be concerned that they are going to change things on me?

i placed my order on the 13th. and yes pricing was out then but my dealer didnt get it til after i placed my order. they now have the pricing and told me that it was subject to change and they couldnt give me anything in writing.

This is why I decided not to order. I couldn't get anyone to commit to MSRP. I got the distinct impression they wanted the wiggle room to change their minds. I would be concerned without anything in writing.

i just spoke to my dealer today and they assured me that no one was getting mark up and they were selling all of their camaros at MSRP. i was scared all weekend that i was going to hear bad news but it turned out pretty good.
