No more H1

[ROX]

SHOOT! I was hoping to get a new one someday. I wish they'd drop the price a little to get rid of inventory.

I guess we should have seen this coming... Well, so much for getting one. They'll be investments now.

X2, so did I. How many Maybach's are sold each year?

Maybe we'll get lucky and the H1 will actually drop in price if interest is low (which current sales might show). So in the next five years, you might be able to pick them up cheaply, and then I suppose after that they may start to appreciate in value. Hard to say though.

Perhaps GM will release a new H1 in 2010 area, and make the next H2 a little cheaper, maybe around $45,000 starting price. Then they could place an H1 at $60,000 where it might be more appealing price wise. The only problem: What platform would GM build the H1 on? I think it would be hard to retain it's off-road prowess on most platforms. I suspect though that something will fill the H1 slot eventually. It would seem odd to leave that flagship spot open. However, the platform will have to be something shared with GM I suspect, otherwise design and production would be too expensive to make a profit....

That's just my theory.

DAMN!!!!! Doesn't make since, even if the numbers have declined some. They are still moving and with that kind of a price tag, its not an everyday purchase!
