Southerfriedhomebuilder,

I take it there is no such thing as "supply and demand" in your line of work.
I didn't say it doesn't hurt your relationship with your dealer, I said it wouldn't hurt the car.

Some of us may have bought the car at $25,000. That is true.Not enough of us would have, to make it a viable car in the market. They would have sold a few more and instead of pulling the plug on it now , they would have gotten another 2 or three months of production.

Let's face it....It got a lot of hopes up, "retro" and that kind of talk, and then it let us down. It was a flop.
It is NOT a nice car. It is butt ugly.
End of the story.

It lacked performance, it also lacked the "retro". Couple of taillights do not make a retro.

I understand a car can be priced too high, but the market is full of vehicles and motocycles that are priced high. As long as the demand is there, the dealers are able to move them of their lots at full sticker and then some.

As a GM employee, I knows what I talk about when it comes to ugly, and also I live with inability to sell cars not on demand by lowering the price. When folks don't want a certain car for it's looks (primarily) no amount of price concessions, rebates, seem to make a significant difference.

Whereas some makes and models have been very succesful in the market place, in spite of the price, and free of discounting. Why? because we are all lined up to buy them!.
