Sure sales were low and many cars sat on lots for 12+ months, but it was really more of a pricing issue... too high for a car that just wasn't quite exotic nor luxurious enough, and the revised pricing may help address that.

It only worked well for a minority of us, and even then, it took something like a $30k discount off MRSP to reduce the cap cost enough to make you even look seriously due to the poor residual as well. Granted, when my lease it up in 2 years I'll likely end up with another one unless the G8x CS(L) happens to move me more, but only because I know now what I was missing.
