Sure they would have that performance but would enough buy it at the compromise of creature comforts.

That compromise is the only way they could make such a car under the $100k mark. Lets face it, at the moment the ceiling price for an aussie performance car that sells enough volume to make it viable is under $100k.
There are others on here who might be prepared to share more on this, so i won't steal their thunder, but lets just say they've intimated its a real possibility, and no where near as costly as you'd think..
Given the shakeiness of geelong's viability, euro 4 looming a new V8 pending and global rationalisation of models allot of things are starting to add up.
