I have been looking at getting a new ZL1 or C8. i was in contact with Phil Smith Chevy in FL. They called me last night as they had a available C8. I inquired into the C8 mark ups. Yup, $30k over sticker he says without hesitation. I politely said to him that what is going on in the automotive industry will eventually end and consumers will remember what certain dealers did with crazy mark ups. He mumbled something and hung up on me.

I get it is a sellers market. Supply is low, demand is high (I still don't know why). Pandemic, people working from home, self isolation, where is everyone driving to?

No great rebates or discounts right now. Interest rates are decent though. But do not give these guys more than sticker. It's pure greed by the dealer, yet people are paying it! Shop around, I bought a Silverado in May and a Tahoe in July and the dealers both sold them at GMS (Employee Pricing).
