Hard to believe this car will be $15k CHEAPER than a 2014 Z/28 was when new.

You can bet, after the first year or two, there will be further upgrades, with prices going up accordingly.

They may actually lose a little bit on the first year sales. Lexus did that when they sold the first wave of LS400 cars. It was genius marketing; selling them below their own cost for a couple years, then hiking the prices. Remember the marketing hype in years 3 & 4? They showed how a used LS400 was still worth almost 90% (sometimes more) of its original sales price. The much higher priced cars in years 3 and 4 meant people were willing to pay much more for a two year old Lexus, pushing the "resale" value through the roof. It was all fiction, of course. Still, a genius marketing move.
