So if they mark a car up $30k and it's sold before anyone notices, then they'll be fined $40k.
Then they should be put on a list prohibiting certain vehicles to be sold there for a certain amount of time.
I would even go as far as if they are caught 3 seperate times going $1 over MSRP (or accepting more from a buyer) of a new vehicle then they will lose their business with certain fines on top of that to whomever authorized the markup.
It's completely impractical to make people pay more than MSRP. But some people have more money than sense. Or that dealers will take away allocations from 1 person and give it to another because they paid 5 times what they other person paid.
Or just go about the way Tesla does. But that will never happen.

Does this also apply when a dealer discounts cars and sells them below MSRP?
