[QUOTE="RockyPM, post: 253010"] I read all of the disparaging words but we have to remember the reason Wheaton has a big allocation is because of the number of 2019 cars they sold. I am not sure of the exact number but it was a lot and because of this their current Corvette Allocation allows them to order quite a few. Because of the demand from brokers and the general public to "flip" the cars south of the border for a profit the dealers have to be careful. You can write all the contracts in the world that don't mean a thing to someone who wants to buy the car, flip it , make their $30 or $40k and not be able to buy another new corvette. They don't care, but the dealer is left holding the bag and then looses his allocations. By pricing high the dealers are protecting themselves from the cars not having the markup advantage being sold to the south. Of course this is hard to swallow for those who are honest. As many of you have stated, this will reduce once the supply and demand premium is diminished. I for one don't really give a damn what the price is because if I don't like it I won't shop at the store. This being said with what I know of the dealership I don't take my car there for any work anyway but everyone must decide for themselves. [/QUOTE]
