Probably due to checking the auto trans ($1185), and then the Ground Effects ($2265) and Black 21" rims ($4865) Those alone add $8,315.

You just have to considered it as a $4,500 option to a coupe when you consider saving $1,000 by not getting the sun roof.
Probably kind of like the extra cost of going from a 4X2 to 4X4 truck. You'll pay a few thousand more but it will always............ be worth that difference and more no matter when you sell it. |

$52,000 for a SS vert?! Say good-bye to the ZL1 being less than $45-50k...

Same thing will probably hold true for a ZL1. Just go easy on the options to keep the price down. |

Everyone is hung up on the all-in price. Who does that? You can option the hell out of anything. You can deck out a Yugo with spinners and a sub woofer that shakes the mirrors off. It doesn't make it a better car.
Most buyers are gonna pay about $40k. Compare this beast to a $40k BMW or Mercedes. There is no comparison, unless you still wear a sweater over your shoulders, and think lady gaga is hot. Give me a 2ss convert on the open road with a tank top and deep purple roaring out highway star than a cheesy Beemer with Kenny G and a preppy sweater for the same price. |

You might need the sweater though, cause you're gonna want that top down all the time!
As far as Lady Gaga...yeah, not hot. |

I looked at a convertible today very nice and price at 44K but the "Market Adjustment" of an additional 10K was so very not cool....so the 54K price tag motivated me even more to wait for the ZL1 and see what kind of price structure they will put on it...
