General Motors insists that they won't be increasing its supply of 2014 Corvette Stingrays for the time being, and at least one dealership in the U.S. has decided to charge $100,000 for the new Stingray.
Though it isn't out of the ordinary for a vehicle to be marked up over the retail price, it's usually not by over $25,000.
Courtesy Chevrolet in San Francisco thinks that it is fair however to charge people $100,760 for a new, blue Corvette, according to Jalopnik.

The report claims a person went to the dealer and saw three new Corvettes out front. A red one was already purchased, though two others, a blue and black one, were still available.
The two vehicles were marked up $25,000 under the column listed as "dealer installed equipment" according to Jalopnik.
"I was surprised that they had 3 of them out front. One was red that was sold, one was black and then they had the blue car in their showroom," said a reader who goes by the name Aashish, according to Jalopnik. "The blue is beautiful! When I asked what was so special about the car to have a $25k markup, he told me it was a numbered car. I told him they are all numbered. And the sales guys said, well it was a specially numbered car from the first set of cars built."
The black vehicle is listed for $94,325, according to the report.
The dealer's website claims the vehicles were marked up because both are equipped with the Z51 package.
So what do you think? Is it fair for a dealership to charge that much for a vehicle just because a company isn't increasing production?
