Want a good laugh? Dealer asking $106k for a Dark Horse

[Ryunker]

Unfortunately, there's always some wanker out there with a large ego, a narcissistic personally, most likely a dreamer who thinks Youtube is a real job, and has a really small dick that needs compensating for. Too harsh?

Not too harsh, but 100% real.

Sadly he will get that price. In 2025 the Zora Corvette is supposed to come out with an MSRP of at least 200K. Dealers are already quoting curious buyers there will be an ADM of 100K. On popular models or limited production runs ADM's are here to stay forever.

This is great news for dark horse buyers that locked in at 5-10k adm.. they’ll be up 20 grand on delivery day.

porsche has been like this for decades, Ferrari is even worse… you have to buy multiple new expensive cars to get on the multi year waiting list for supercars.

it’s the dark horse… it’s not for the blue collar guys (me).. that’s what the GT is for.

They'll get their asking price, no doubt. Hell, they could ask $150k and someone will still buy it.

Hard to negotiate with dealers nowadays when they know someone out there will pay any price.

I don’t think the dark horse is going to be a huge seller so don’t be surprised if you see them selling for under list in a year or two

I for one don't see that happening. They are limited, so people that can afford them will pay, and they will be limited for sale on the secondary market, hence the pricing will stay high.

I agree with you. Anyone thinking that it's not going to sell is crazy!

Oh you mean like how the mach 1s sold so well lmfao

Why would 2023 Mach 1s sell well when the 24 DH Mustang was announced mere months after it was produced. People waited. Like myself. You're comparing two vehicles that are similar, but also different.

I thought Ford was clamping down on that.

if my dealer tries to that then he can keep his car no way I pay over msrp!!!

I agree, but since when has any corvette sold for msrp? Same logic applies.

It depends on how long of a run the dark horse will have. MSRP pricing will be the exception at first (for those who didn't order), then it won't. GT350s could easily be found with 20-25K ADMs in the first year. Halfway through the second year, you could find them at MSRP. And that was a Shelby.

I think it depends on the dealer. The dealership where I bought my Corvettes, including the C8 Stingray, sold them at or below sticker. That doesn't apply to C8 Z06's. The dealership just changed owners and they have a C8 Z06 listed at $100k over sticker.

This was before the Covid global reset, that was a different world.
