This is exactly why we can't speculate costs based on how much more individual parts cost at the retail level. I can't buy ceramic brakes for less than 10k, but I bet GM can. Same goes for the engine, an LS7 costs me 15k or whatever, but it does't cost GM that much to manufacture it. And, as far as costs to "remove parts like the AC, I highly douby GM is going to build an SS then start stripping it down to Z/28 spec. they just wont install the AC.
To keep my post relative, my guess is $68,722 + tax, fees, etc. And of course dealers will try to gouge us. I also bet that I wont be able to get on in Canada for less than 100k
