Thus, a Corvette with an MSRP of $50K would have a $1,500 holdback.

It's not fixed as you suggested, either, but is based solely on the (varying by options) MSRP.

Furthermore, there's no "scam" involved," since every American manufacturer has dealer holdbacks and has had them for many decades. It's part of the business.

The Bowling Green trip you're referring to is actually an RPO option called "museum delivery." I didn't get that. The only people who do get it willingly request and pay for it.


You can avoid replies such as these in the future by performing some fact checking before you type.

Obviously you have never worked at a dealership. Dealer holdback is not what I am talking about. I am talking about the backend is what the dealer gets from GM...... it has nothing to do with the consumer. There is an average backend on a Silverado of a few grand too. Do you really think a dealer is only going to make 1500 on the holdback? That would not cover the overhead.

We would offer the Bowling Green delivery to customers who requested it. Personally I think you are just a wanna be ..... all mouth ....... as I read through I see more and more links and references. You are just full of stories yet you claim to have had all these cars....... didn't you mention that the yaris is a single season car and you have also owned Before that I owned a 2007 Acura TL Type S. I've also owned three Accords, a Taurus SHO and two 5.0 Mustangs - all purchased new..... and you now go to a Yaris? Either you have more money than brains or you have a trust fund.


Get a life.

Where is the picture of the Yaris with the vette?
