Look for a decked SS to be comparable in price to a ZL1. If I am GM the only SSs coming to the USA will be decked or I'll lose money.
Might as well not bring it then. A CTS-V is roughly what a ZL1 costs (as is a C63), an ATS-V would probably be low $50K too. The G8 GXP was a great, great car at $40K but there aren't 2000 of them total in the whole US. A car that's 50% more expensive than that isn't going to sell five times as well. The math makes no sense to me.
