Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 price check

[haven]

I took a look at prices for Colorado ZR2 models on cars.com. Out of 90 listings for new diesel ZR2s, 15 were advertised below list price. Discounts ranged from $2000 to $7000 off.

Looking for Ford Raptors, I didn't see any advertised for list price (about 59k). Lots above $80k, however.

For the ZR2's, the price listed below the MSRP is the Employee price. I don't think there are any other incentives on them, unless you trade in a competitive lease. If I found a ZR2 for more than MSRP i'd move on to the next dealer.

I tried a local dealer and they could only get one in and it's already sold

Just goes to show that the raptors are a much more desirable vehicle.

Just looked at a brand new ZR2 yesterday at a Chevy dealer - MSRP $44K + $20K Dealer markup!!!!! That was for the V6 - add another $3K for the diesel. I told the salesman that they are idiots - GM finally makes a midsize capable of knocking the Tacoma off it's pedestal and the dealers are going to screw it up by tacking on a 50% markup.

For giggles - I went three doors down to the Toyota dealer and looked at a shiney new 4x4 Tacoma TRD Offroad with all the bells and whistles for $41K - no dealer markup. Chevy dealers are idiots.

I think the pricing is due it being a new vehicle in a segment that has been crying out for improvement.

Give it 6 months and things will calm down....

It's not GMs fault idiots are willing to pay over sticker for a vehicle.

I have seen a ton of new raptors on the road here in So Cal, but zero ZR2s. I doubt the mark up will fly for very long. This truck seems amazing, but is getting very little coverage.....

I just picked up a diesel ZR2 for $5k below MSRRP. Not every dealer is that stupid

That is REALLY good to know that some of them actually understand the more strategic picture here.

Dealers are 3rd party sales business. They'll sell them for what buyers will pay. Any car being purchased at or above MSRP are being purchased by people who really don't care what they are paying. Dealers who refuse below msrp or tack on Dealer BS over MSRP are simply seeing if they can get really crazy consumers to pay stupid $$$$.

Cool.

Congrats!

You should start your own thread now

Did you get a gas or diesel?

What I have noticed is that the gas ZR2 are somewhat in MSRRP range. The diesel is one that gets overpriced.
I saw one here in for Michigan 50K. Too much

I got the diesel. Most of the dealers I talked to in Texas were at/below MSRP. I've been getting a pretty consistent 24.5-25mpg highway, and that's doing 85mph

That's pretty good, all things considered. I'd imagine if you drove it like a granny and kept it below 70mph, you'd get even better mpg's.

Heck, I try to get good mpg's with my 4runner by keeping my speed under 70mph and I'm lucky if I can break 20 mpg's.
