So 30% higher in price than the SS?

I like your wishful thinking

In the end all we can do is guess until actual numbers are released. IMO it will be the dealers screwing us with their mark up.

You're only getting screwed if you pay the price they end up asking for it. I don't understand why so many people begrudge dealers from trying to make the maximum profit they can on any car they sell.

If you had a set of custom wheels and one person was willing to buy them from you for $5000 and another was only willing to give you $4000, which deal would you take? Does what you gave to get them in first place even enter into the equation? Not at all.

I'd sell the wheels to the following (dependent on buyer):

1. Guy with the hottest GF
2. If both buyers are girls - Hotter of the girls
3. If one is a girl and one is a guy - The girl if she is hot OR the guy if girl is fat.
