Are these 20 cars simply 14s with swapped engines? If so, I guess I don't get how that qualifies them as lemons under the law. If not, what are they exactly?

Cars sold for anywhere between 130k and 155k No worries about resale, folks :-) In my mind, this is REALLY good news.

Yes, except for the 20 new owners. These numbers are silly for lemons. Remember, these are the dealer *purchase* prices.

Here is how this will play out:

Dealer: Hey Joe, we JUST GOT an incremental GT3 and you're next on the list ! You can have it NOW. BTW all of our Nov/Dec builds are gone so this is your LAST CHANCE at a GT3. Let me know before I call the next 10 guys on the list......
