To what end pray tell? Any slow down from any manufacturer is a going out of business plan.

These are limited production, pretty much custom build to order cars, and are priced to what the market will bear. Remember Rolls Royce and Bently were built as "rolling framework" and turned over to a coach builder. Not too much different. Quality certainly demands a premium. And I'm sorry, a Cobra with a Jaguar rear end ain't a Cobra. Might look like one, but don't pass the rest of the tests. Built on a Mustang II frame? Ha.
