Saleswise, its pretty smart, because you can develop all this performance stuff, and then sell the base model like hotcakes. However, this means that you have to make common everyday driver considerations like amount of room considerations when building it. And that sucks when you're trying to make a sportscar.

man, you are right.
I always stupefy to see price of such cars in US. then I remember they are just like our european hatches, just with bigger engines like a supercar but nothing more. Even if NA price always stupefy me even for cars sold both there and here with a quite big difference between the two prices, my opinion is that such cars as the Mustang or the Camaro aren't good cars at all considering what their automakers are calling, they are cheap, so they are built in a cheap way with cheap materials and tecnologies. it doesn't mean they are like craps, but they are simply "common cars" with a muscal body style, and that's because you usually have to pay more for something that is better, without talking about cars like the Nissan GT-R which, IMO, costs way less than everything else on the market, but I think it's also less profitable, or maybe it isn't profitable at all, and it would make a sense, since it isn't something which fits in Nissan's line-up, it's a sort of advertising company, so it isn't meant to profitable for itself.
