I don't need to run a car company to know that support for a little known and (<admit it>) fading fast car for any reason beyond whim is wasteful. I also don't need to run a car company to know what support is demanded for long OOP cars; eleven years at a Tier 1 supplier that produced as many components in two days as the entire SVX run in seven years made it quite clear.

It's not good to spread speculation as gospel. Mind your footing?
I just said there was evidence. Based on the date codes I posted in another thread, there is good reason to believe those aren't just stocking dates. I never said it was gospel. But is *IS* possible and you and I both know, stranger things have happened.
