That's what I don't get about their sports car pricing. They don't anticipate high volume so price it high to improve profit based on said volume. Then act fucking shocked when they don't sell any BECAUSE THEY ARE SO OVERPRICED for what they are. Maybe more people would have bought ZZW30s if they weren't charging so much for a Corolla-powered sports car.

Goddamn marketing goofs...
