When you can easily get 30-35% "discount" from "MSRP", it shows you what the real-world "value" is of these things. The manufacturers can set an MSRP, but the stealers have the final say in what it really is, then discount from there. I imagine that actual dealer "cost" is probably right at 50% of factory MSRP, so they're still making a decent double-figure margin even at 35% off.

Very true!! I have a friend that used to work at a local dealership and was told most of their units were marked up 50-70% mostly 50% and that was on lower end models the more luxury the more markup.
Probably just the wrong time of year to be shopping!!!
