Wholesale price on your 2011 Z $26,500 and $29,000 trade in and the CTS-V is $31,500 wholesale and $36,500 trade in. So a better deal would have been your Z and $7000 -$7500.
When buying a used car you should never pay more than $1000 more than trade in price, because in most cases dealers never pay more than wholesale for a car, they took in trade.

If you can get that kind of deal, I'll take two.

For some cars maybe you can get that deal you described, but its not going to happen to a high dollar luxury car....maybe for a Sentra or Civic, sure. They had two offers on the V when I got there, but I was the first one to cut a check and do a deal.

Basic dealer BS if they had firm offers for the car then they would have been under contract and couldn't sell it to you.
When you buy a used car you have to factor in that, if you had to sell the car the very next day, what could you unload it for with in 48hrs.

The cars worth $31500 - $36000 max, nothing about would, could or show me, just simple buying practices.

Are you offering to sell one in that range?

Nothing special about the car, you have to remember its a 4 yr. old GM car and price it accordingly. If you can't get the car, for the price you want, then you walk, let someone else pay the high price if they really want it.
