So basically $23k for the V6, $31k for the SS. I don't see that being too bad, guess the crunch is how much it costs after adding options you want. I'll have to see what comes standard and what is optional, configure my SS, and see what the cost is.

And then I can wish I wasn't still in college and could afford one.

wonder how much it would be with the RS package +TTL+all the good suspension/braking crap. DJ, just throw a hotcam in it to make up for the weight!

Why not keep off the weight and use the stage2 hotcam to go a lil faster?

If MSRP is 31K Then invoice is likely to be 28-28.5

People should be able to pick one up for 28-29K quite easily 3-5 months after the initial release

You do know that it comes with the FE3 suspension standard right? You pay ZERO extra for ANYTHING suspension related.
