[QUOTE="GTSpartan, post: 12879002, member: 21531"] I can speak to the Viper.....they already have a production plant, and haven't ever really totally redesigned the car. The amount of money they put into that car is relatively small, because most of the capital infrastructure has been in place for a long time. The vette is in a similar situation. Ford sold the Wixom plant, so they don't have anywhere to actually make it, and the GT can't meet the required safety requirements without major changes which I have read will ruin the look. A clean sheet design and production tooling is crazy expensive. Add in a new site selection and all the costs associated with that, and it would be hard not to lose your ass on some ultra low volume car. [/QUOTE]
