While i was a Koni guy with my 3rd gen, it will be far from the only option for the Zeta (II) cars like the G8 and Camaro, and the cost will be a bit higher for the new car simply due to the technology being a bit more advanced than the old style dampers.
The thing I like about my current 4th Gen Konis (3rd gens in the rear) are the adjustability and fact that they are built better than most other shocks. Bilsteins were almost as much money after they were revalved to the correct settings and with the Koni's you can change the rebound as often as you want.

Where are the Pedders struts going to be made, and what are your quality control processes like?
