i feel you - it's hard on the brain. yes - it sucks, but it's just the way it is now.
the S in MSRP stands for suggested. there isn't and never has been a requirement for any dealer to charge this number at any time.
they've used C19 as a way to normalize charging more - and the OEM's have no problem with it.
this will change when the dealership model is abandoned. we're not far from it. What's the point of a car dealership in a prime condo location? dealerships are going to sell out soon. Central repair and delivery centers are all that will be needed.
