I think that is what they have done in essence.
You have to sat at some point who is your target buyer and what do they want..what will they pay.......think about the prices of the old 140 cars when they were new.....what would have happened if they had come out with a new version that was 20-30K more than the outgoing 140?....is there a mass market buyer for the car?
I think they have sold more 220's than they did 140's....remember its about making a corporate profit
