In other words, I wouldn't worry too much about the price increasing by a large amount, like some others are speculating...

Lutz hasn't been with GM for almost 10 years. IMO, Lutz is using his knowledge of C7 and the fact that C7 started development as mid engine. Until GM announces it, everything regarding price is speculation though.
I am a believer that it will not be much more than the current model and I've been saying that for a long time. I don't know for sure though.
My guess is that it will be somewhere between $65k and $70k. A base A8 C7 is $58,995 right now. $10k more than that would not be a shock to me.
