no but they do it so it can bring in recognition by being in races or magazines all of which brings things to the company we dont see. Basic marketing really. People are gonna buy anyway, and from what Ive seen in this forum guys will buy almost blindly and then buy more a few months later so the company is going to make its money anyway and they know this. How many times have people in his forum bought something blindly and then a few months later the same company comes out with another product only to be bought by the same people that has to replace the first product they bought. ie HFC to LTH. So I guess my point is they will make money with the SC and they will get their 1000 hp car out and we will buy no matter what. And we will wait for it.
And by the way when Chevrolet was in a bad way tand they were trying to relate how they were losing money, guess which vehicle they used to make the comparison, the vette, so they do make huge money off the vette.
