[QUOTE="DHG1078, post: 14629277, member: 65442"] Z/28's (and other high end model cars) have a lot more going on than base models. Their is a lot of extra designing/testing/certifications/tooling costs that have to be added on. These extra costs get spread out over a fewer number of vehicles. Plus any upgraded components often cost more whether its more costly to produce, takes more material, uses a more expensive material, etc. Any marketing costs need to be paid for. Car manufacturers calculate those costs down to the penny. Then they have to think about what kind of overhead costs they have, operational costs, labor costs for employees of all sectors of the business affected by the higher end model in addition to the shared costs with the lower models. 401K matching and health benefits aren't cheap to companies. Companies have to pay various fees just for being the kind of business they are. Add margins on top of that and you got an expensive car. [/QUOTE]
