So the ZR1 will be $400,000. Yes more than a Lambo.

I don't think you understand that all orders are accounted for and that deposits were put down on this car. Now they're being strongarmed by dealerships because if they don't want to pay then they lose their deposit.

Hopefully, it was a refundable deposit. I'm sure the dealers will give them the deposit back if the customer wants to back out. If the dealer says no........

Re: (b20sedan)
It's like chevy has been frequenting the A/C forum. They looked at the Z06 and said," Hmm.. needs a drop, a lip, and some new wheels. We better give it a blower so it's not totally ghey."
Then some ricey marketing bastard decided to add a hood window to counteract the coolness of the blower.

A ZR1 is more than a Z06 with a body kit and blower. The drivetrain is very different, it has ginormous ceramic brakes, magnetic shocks, and carbon fiber hood and fenders.

I was being somewhat facetious with my statement. For the money you're spending though I'm not sure you're getting what you paid for to begin with let alone with markup.

considering gm's douchebaggery in this case, i concur
wtf, anyone who pays money 2.5 years in advance wiht nothing to show for it should not then be made to pay 4x MSRP which is already a rip
75K cash or no deal
105K msrp =/= car cost 105K dealer invoice
bitch *** chevy
they should give him a free cobalt or something!!!
for waiting and being told to [freak] off or pay 4x more after giving a down payment a LONG *** time ago

Re: (xtrac1)
I love how they complain about the bad economy and dealers taking advantage of people...as if the ZR1 is a need item. This isn't a mark up on bread or milk, its a mark up on a toy car (as in not a necessity).
Now start marking up aveo's 4x over and they can start bitching about the bad economy and dealer gouging.

As awesome a car as the ZR1 is, you do agree that it still isn't worth 400k, right?

No it isn't. But NOBODY has paid that much for a ZR1 via dealer yet. And NOBODY will. Who knows if this "reader" is even telling the truth or has a deposit on the car. Even if the "reader" is telling the truth it was based on a conversation with who knows who at the dealership throwing out a huge range of a guestimate on a starting point for negotiation.
Until someone actually pays that or a good number of dealers start actually holding their allotments until they get that price don't sit here and act like the ZR1 costs $400,000.
