You'd think for the 20k, they include the whoooaaaaa to compliment the goooooo and the suspension upgrades. I love how they include all the silly paperwork line by line like its some sort of big deal, that' crap. I hope they sell a boat load, but don't sign me up. For 60k I can think of many other cars I'd rather own or just have a pile of cash in my bank account, that's always nice too.

I just copied your price breakdown and posted it in the Firehawk sticky in the G8 part of the board on ls1tech. I can't wait for the responses.

Damn $58k??? It's a shame SLP decided to go forward with this, for their sake. I don't think they will sell many considering a new G8 GXP is $38k. I mean $58k is appoaching CTS-V money. But what do I know

Well it better make about 500 in order to ask that kind of money. A new CTSV is the same price.

Wow.

And this pricing is on the heals of SLP announcing that they don't plan to sell any of the Firehawk parts separately. Even in a good economy I don't know how many they can move at that price, much less now.

wow this is a bit to much.. I agree it is a bad move for SLP considering the hurting economy..and the fact that most people for this price tag would rather buy a c6 Z06.
