    Like I said, dealer markup is a bitch. I'm still waiting to see where I can get a C6 Z06 for US $46k like you said. £52,900, yeah, that's in England... How much is a C6 Z06 over there?? £64,500?

    Exactly

    Over here we don't suffer the nonsense of dealer-markup the way the US does for sought after cars. The first time buyer is the one that benfits when that situation arises here. Many "worthy" cars are privately sold one hour after the deal complets and in the case where cars are pre-ordered they can be sold whilst still awaiting delivery Dealers do NOT make money out of these !!

    So yeah, it's expensive over here due to the way US companies match $-£. But at least it doesn't vary like that for popular desirable cars. I guess our system works best when there are desireable cars and discerning buyers. Your way works best for you guys - cough, cough

    $130k after stealership extortion is ok, a ZO6 here is $240k...now who is the bargain?

    Did I ever say it would fail at selling? No...

    All I said was that Nissan does plan on making more in the future.

    I'm dropping out to create a company that starts with motorcycles, then cars, and forty years later signs a legendary Brazilian driver who has a public and expensive feud with his French teammate.
