Interesting article, but I think the author missed something big when estimating Z06 sales based on 06 Z06 sales. He talks about Convertible being an unknown variable, but honestly I don't think that will matter much. What could matter a lot is the availability of an automatic transmission. That's much more likely to increase demand for the car.

A very comprensive article on the new Z06. Quite compelling.

that the best and most successful dealers never charge more than MSRP for one of these even though it's limited supply. I also like the price & cost-per-HP chart. Quite revealing.

Not to miss Mike Furman for the punchline at the conclusion of the article. Congrats for your hard work Mike. Your hard work and dedication is paying off.

What I didn't see and could have missed is that the new A8 now available in the Z06 should also increase the demand over prior years. Great info, thanks.

Seems like a nice plug to "hurry up and buy one now or they'll be gone!"

Criswell runs a business, selling is to be expected.
