They'll be high school and college kids who want a great looking and sounding car (and all three are good looking in their own right) and will only look at two things - price, and 1/4 mile, in that order.

Before everyone starts laughing about 28k SS, here is my point: The people on this forum and enthusiasts will buy one for a little more, because they have a passion for it. For the average person that wants a sports/muscle car, they might go with a mustang or something else. Just MVHO of course.
If they end up doing chapter 11 they will lose a lot of debt and have the ability to adjust pricing. It is well known there is about 2k in the prices to cover legacy cost. Who knows, they could end up crushing the competition due to low overhead requirements. Could you imagine a 2k price drop?
