Am I incorrect by interpreting the above quote as "the Z06 is a numbers car, and when you go beyond $100k, the idea that it can be considered a bargain value becomes questionable." My previous post was countering this notion.

To summarize my last statment: the Z06 will remain a bargain at that [my completely hypothetical] $125k pricepoint. "Premium" isn't a relevant selling point.
Yes, you are actually. Let me repeat myself since you're having trouble comprehending what my point is. At 100-125k, the Z06 will no longer offer the same bargain it did before because it is now hypothetically priced in a niche with cars that offer more than sufficient performance that are categorized as 'premium'(and this is not solely based on the badges they don). Previously at 70k, there was basically no car that could offer both the same performance as a Z06 and offer the qualities of a premium car.
