It's not like when LS1's came out they were inexpensive. Maybe everyone has just forgotten since the last one was made in 02. I had the original sticker from my TA. Fully loaded, M6, 2001 TA (non-WS6) sticker was 26K. The WS6's and SS's (especially 35th anny's) went for more than that. I can see the new Camaro easily selling for 30K+. That's a lot of car for that much money IMO.
