Hereā€™s what I heard from someone far up the chain.

When the 100% true leak by @Houston.Z35 hit the inter webs, top management freaked out because now thereā€™s no new info to ā€˜revealā€™, the went back and redesigned the car to change the specs.

In all seriousness, the leaked info on this site made it into nearly every automotive site and nearly every YouTube blogger repeated it. The fact is, I think this ā€˜leakā€™ generated more interest in the car than anything else so far.

The "leak" is what made me sign up for this forum, but my interest is 100% because of the proto. As soon as I saw it and heard that it was 95% of what we would see in the production car I knew I would have to have one.

Nada, only pricing I've ever heard was "35k starting" and it looks like that was 3k off the mark
I thought the base starts at 40 not 38. ? And wonder what addi tonal premium for performance package. If its 10 k. That 50 ! Ugh. May have to look elsewhere

$38k is being throw around left and right because of Joe Raiti's video.
