The grease ball car dealer mind will be blinded by avarice as it usually with this kind of offering. They will make a mess out of this one as they always do.

Yep. And we've seen it on about every new performance car release. Remember when the '90 Corvette ZR1 was released? Stupidly insane markups were asked for and paid.
Even when the '07 GT500 came out it was a feeding frenzy. Same for the 5th Gen Z/28 - ridiculous markups. 2012 ZL1 - you couldn't find one at first for MSRP.
Then, reality set in.
I'm really surprised the GT350 ADM has hung on as long as it has.
And so it goes...
