I can't speak for the GTO... But, the dealer reserve on a $32K Saab that I was looking into, was about $1400...
 
But, that is gross profit... he has to pay expenses out of that.. And, if everyone is getting the same deal, it isn't like he can make up for a skinny deal on the next guy... I doubt you'll find anyone selling under the employee price..

rcc442, interesting surmise & wonderment! i wonder too. we just don't know. if you are amenable, let's you and i start an auto dealership group and find out the answers that way! for me it's either that or a gas-station/mini-mart.

Used or New by lovegto

In a message posted on the GTO discussion board the question was whether to buy a used or new 2005 GTO. Having purchased my GTO in June and since March, having done much exploration and price checking in the process I do not believe there are many, if any, used 2005 GTO's available for purchase. There are still some 2004 GTO's selling at large discounts. I saw one Red automatic and one Black stick in ten miles of my home. Using the used car guide on the internet I was unable to come across any used 2004 or 2005 GTO's within 500 miles of my home.

You just have to look around.. or find a better website..
 
 Cars.com shows 12 used '05 GTOs within 250 miles of Cincinnati...

A quick search... by hammen2

of cars.com shows 27 used 2005's presently for sale across the U.S., pretty much all at dealers (only one individual seller).
 
Pricing ranges from $27,300 to $32,995(!) - with mileage ranging from 25 (still new?) to over 8000. Interestingly enough, the cheapest car has only 100 miles on it, while the most expensive has 1600...
 
I would not pay over 29k for any used '05...

Thanks, I stand corrected. I looked at Cars.com and there are indeed sixteen 2005 GTO's within 500 miles. Perhaps you know why one dealership in Illinois, Dan Wolfe Pontiac, has 5 of these 16 used cars on his lot. Is it that big or does it specialize in repossessions or some other esoteric form of acquiring used GTO's? It does seem to be a statistical anomaly.
Since I was never was in the market for a used car and live 450 miles from the Dealership, my question is strictly academic.
My posting is from Western Pennsylvania so the 500 mile radius includes from east of New York to West of Chcago, a lot of dealerships.

It is possible that those are all new cars.. and he has them listed as used, just so they pop up when people do a search...
 
I'm constantly amazed at the amount of "slightly" used cars on the market... Once I buy a car, I'm married to it for at least three years... But, there are so many cars out there with under 5K miles, that I just quit asking why...

If you click on the ads you'll find that most are new cars. You'll also find that they are offering "internet pricing" and that the price listed on cars.com may not be the internet price. As to the internet price, take it for what its worth. Nothing. The only price that matters is the one on the bottom line when you drive away. (And maybe not even then).
