Question Regarding How Incentives Work for the Dealer

Ok, so I see that military discount is up and active for the 2016 Camaro. I ordered a 2SS, arrived at the dealer yesterday and I am currently deployed overseas so my father is going to pick it up for me in a few days. I spoke to my dealer who said they honor the Military Discount but not for the 2016 Camaro which I thought was odd. I signed up on the GMmilitarydiscount site and have my authorization number and a printout of the 2016 2SS configured exactly like my car with the MSRP and Military pricing which I am going to have him take with him when he picks it up.

My main question is, so I can give him all the ammo I can, is what would cause a dealer to not want to honor this discount? I am not a sales/dealer expert but I would imagine since this is a GM discount that GM would have to 'reimburse' the dealer for the cost of the discount. Am I wrong in this? Or does the dealer have to take a hit on the discount through this program and does it cause the dealer to lose money and that is why they are reluctant?

I hope someone on here can answer this question for me because I really don't see why a dealer would participate in a program but not honor the discount for a specific model if GM is saying its ok. Thanks!

From what I was told, it's up to the dealer if they will honor that type of discount. I spoke with my dealer yesterday about my college discount and was told he may not honor it, even though I have the authorization code.

When a car is hot, some tend not to do it because they have some "contribution" to the discount. It varies per the program. So he's not offering the discount because he's hoping somebody will come through the door that will give him MSRP.
