I agree. When I see Calloway on the C8 I know it is no longer anything but strips and decals.

Okay... one more time; anyone can ask anything they want for any item. It only has meaning when someone buys it at THAT price. Whoever knows how these things turn-out. But, then personally I know of no one willing to take that big a hit just to have another Shivvy. But, I'm sure someone might. More power to all involved.

Good luck to that dealer selling at that price - I’m sure someone has deep pockets and will gladly pay that price.

A lot of it is buying what they believe is the best. Enzo always produced 90% of demand. Drove the price up. Since the cars didn’t depreciate they could. My 430 is gated. Now worth more than I paid for it new.

Oh, wow. I don't see how anyone could think this is a good value. It costs almost the same as a Z06. Callaway should be embarrassed--their name used to stand for something. I hope no one buys this.
