That's pretty heavy. I'd much rather have/track an E92 M3 in that weight category.

I almost signed for a gt350 + track pack this past weekend, but backed away cus a good friend convinced me otherwise..
Even in US dollars that price is a complete joke, makes the RS seem like a bargain.

Be patient. Chevy dealers played the same game with Z/28 when it was released.

The current market for a new Z/28: http://www.cars.com/for-sale/searchr...ion&sf2Dir=ASC

Need to see how much those carbon wheels cost to purchase retail, and then fit them to a regular gt350 with the track package. That's the perfect one

Honestly I didn't even look.. the sticker shock was blinding..

I was told that only 20 R's were to be sold in Canada..

Carbon wheels will probably be very pricey, I'll probably just go for some HRE or similar track wheel for my gt350. And then use the stock wheels for DD.

So $15 large ones for a set of wheels. 4 sets of wheels will buy you a regular gt350.

What an idiot.

^^^They can ask whatever they want but the question is, what price will it sell at.
