I bought the very first Nissan GT-R in Houston in 2008 for MSRP, a car that had way more appeal and demand than the ZL1. Sure, most people paid over sticker at first, but I didn't because I shopped around and scored a deal. That is how the free market works. If everyone just settled and bought products for the price they were told then the free market would fail, but consumers care about price and do shop around and price rises and falls accordingly.

Th ZL1 is a specialty car, if that dealer was able to mark up ALL of their inventory then obviously something would be amiss. It is not a monopoly when one product is prices over the suggested retail price, it is the market correcting itself. If dealers can sell the ZL for that markup it is because that is what buyers are willing to pay because it has high demand and a low supply.
