To some extent, sure. But that link is to Nationwide listings. I doubt most dealers are going to price match to a deal that's being offered halfway across the country.

Listings within about a 3 hour round trip of me show 1 at MSRP, 1 that says contact for a quote, and one for $68k. The one at MSRP probably goes up when you actually go to buy it (if it doesn't sell first), who knows on the quote, and I bet the $68k dealership doesn't decide to just sell it for $53k because one comes up for that price in a nationwide search of cargurus.com. But I could be wrong. Doesn't matter much to me, as I'm not buying one and couldn't afford it at $53k or $68k or $99k. Nor can I afford a C8.

I also get that the pricing thing may work better for others who don't live in the rural Midwest. After all, there's one listing for Indianapolis, IN...which is the closest to my area at about a 55 minute drive one way. I bet there's one person in Indy and the surrounding hour or two radius that's willing to pay MSRP or more for a Supra.
