I was referring to it in the context that its automatically not a luxury car simply because it is badged as a Chevy.
From what Ive read, it actually has damn good build quality, and maybe GM could have sold more, if they would have say, badged it as a Buick GS.
That is why I referred to it as a modern spiritual successor to the original q45.
Like the Q, it is not advertised, and is a marque unknown of in this segment.
Like the Q, it is an upmarket foreign market car that is being sold here in limited numbers. Ironically, im willing to bet that if the G50 would have been sold as a Maxima it probably would have sold better, lol.
Finally, just like the original q45, the SS will be a gem that is unknown to all and forgotten amid a sea of utterly forgettable cars.
I am saying narrow minded view because if the exact same car were sold as a caddy with caddy sheetmetal, we wouldnt even be having this discussion in the first place.
One's opinion on the car was irrelevant in my reply, i was simply refuting your claim that no other car exists at the red sport's price point that is comparable in performance....yet there is.
In fact, that might be a solution to that dilemma. Lease the SS for two years, knowing it will have a good residual, then score a lovingly cared for red sport for half price, haha
