Given that they didn't have to sink any money for R&D into it, the Model 0 looks like it will be a sorely-needed cash cow for the company. I may not be interested in buying one, or any of the special edition M6's, but if sale of those models is going to bolster the company's financial viability, I don't have a problem with that approach.
