I remeber when the last Cobra came out it was 42k but all the dealerships were tacking on a 20k "market adjustment" on top. If this one gets the same treatment it will loose it's Horse Power for the dollar value and be placed in competition with much better cars. Do we see this a potential issue?

We don't (we paid MSRP) but I am sure there is some dealer out there gouging people.
