Either that or they are marking up other models to help cover camaro costs...  But in this economy that doesn't seem wise either.
Of course I could be completely wrong. The last time Bob Lutz and I talked about this, he explained to me how this......  psh NOT!  |
I agree, the cost of the Camaro is fair at MSRP, however GM is making a profit selling them as they have to. Chrysler on the other hand just received this bailout and needs to get the cars moving since they know the dealers are overpricing them and that is a big reason they don't sell.. Lowering the price by giving incentives will match the competition and I do feel that the Challenger R/T is a better buy than the current Mustang GT and a very close second only to the Camaro, however the 0% financing coupled with below MSRP could put it at a better overall value than the Camaro once the numbers are figured out.
