I don’t think you would need to add $25k to the Corvette. Setting up the process for upgraded cabins across all GM vehicles will be a selling point. Share some of these fabrication facilities and parts with other vehicles and the tide of quality rises, and the cost is shared across most of the platforms.
Even Genesis uses unique switchgear and interior components as does the Kia Stinger compared to the rest of Hyundai and Kia cars. VW uses stuff that could pass muster in an entry leve luxury car in the Golf. GM uses crap parts in everything from their Cruze to the Cadillac ATS-V to the ZR1 supercar killer. In a Cruze…
I think that GM needs at LEAST 2 tiers of switchgear to run the show. Cadillac/GMC Denali/Corvette as one group, and everyone else as the other. My buddy’s $60k GMC Sierra Diesel’s switchgear is, well, cheap as fuck - and there’s no excuse for it anymore. The initial cost of the development is what’s going to cost the…
That would be a problem for small manufacturers like McLaren. GM sells lots of luxo Cadillacs. They can amortize the cost of the fancy switch gear over a lot more cars than say, Porsche. So as Kurt Bradley said- quit with the excuses.
I would never expect you to stop.
Easy answer: GM should design and produce better looking, higher quality parts for a car that wants to eat at the big kids table. The margins exist. It’s a matter of desire and dedication to being better, or in this case, the lack thereof.
It’s funny you mention that. I have a background in dealer ops management before taking up a career in building software and interface experiences... with a couple OEMs as past clients, and one of them was a certain Detroit-based make. So yes, I do have an idea.
I can’t listen to anyone make excuses for that in a halo car
NBA circles always talk about “So And So has to develop a 3-point shot” like it’s just some magic thing that you can just do in one or two off-seasons. Largely, shooters are shooters and it’s extremely rare to see somebody go from a total minus from range to a plus without some extremely positive peripherals to…
I watched this last night. Because Giannis is sent from outer space to do things that no one else can do and can guard almost anyone, and because Lopez can shoot threes and at least hold his own on defense, they get to have the modern version of a Twin Towers. Its pretty tough for opponents to get to the rim, which is…
“The only time in the movies we’ve ever seen someone else in the Batmobile with Batman is in Batman Begins”
The 1966 Batmobile had a trunk, and it was shown on the show. Where else was Batman going to keep his Mobile Crime Computer?
