Which basically proves my point - selling only 7,500 of anything is not going to interest GM.
As for Porsche, BMW, and Bentley - they pretty much live in a different world than GM, especially when it comes to SUVs. So what works for them has virtually zero to do with what works for GM.

My buddies and I go to a lot of car shows and I've seen ~10-12 Trackhawks. The three Jeep dealerships around here have each had at least 1-2 as well. The TH is a niche vehicle. Niche vehicles will never appeal to the masses, nor will they be produced in huge numbers.
GM does sell niche vehicles in low numbers though, so it does interest them.
2012 ZL1- ~1,885
2014 Z/28- ~500
2015 Z/28- ~1,300
2018 ZL1/1LE- ~1,600
2019 ZR1- less than 2,000
