True but GM usually raises prices a couple times per year. Option prices probably went up also. In today's economy when they cannot sell enough Corvettes they would be better off "lowering" the MSRP to about 5% above invoice like it is on just about every other car and advertise that they dropped pricing. This will **** off some dealers that make $5 digit profit on selling a Corvette but I bet they would sell more. Knowing GM they would increase the invoice price to within 5% of MSRP though.

Maybe, because the GS Coupe is a better seller, i.e., more desirable? And, GM knows that they will be able to generate more revenue by doing this? Could that be the reason?

I would think if your widgets weren't selling that well you would lower prices to motivate interest/sales.
Seems like there having us pay for the incentives through a base price increase
And they raise the base every year, and every year the sales #'s go south,( yea i know ''it's the economy stupid'')

That's peanuts.....no big deal. I would think if they are going to bother with raising prices they would do more than that.
