In other words, it is significantly more expensive than the Big Four. So in order to make it a sales hit, it not only needs to be better than what the Big Four offer, it has to be dramatically better.

a coupla hunge EU more than the R1 is also what's being thrown around - so, does that sound right TM?

It will def have to be some sort of amazing machine with some special stuff - not many will buy on hype alone...and if it's the most expensive - the points of difference will want to be sharp - he he
