Man, it has too be!
With ricers out here able to run with or away from the production corvette, fuel economy figures reaching higher, and all the other retro-muscle being manufactured by both GM and others that have the power, styling and the ability to take along friends (albeit-small friends), GM needs to do something to attract a younger, crowd. At least get the numbers up. Otherwise, they're going to find themselves in a quandry over continued production:nonod:
That, or jack the price so rediculously high that they'll be in "exotic" range.
I relly hope they get some enthusiastic esigners in there soon.
