In all likelihood it's not a totally new car. You'll probably be able to upgrade the T2 or 007 to the new model but all full kits will be the 008 model. You'll still be able to get parts for all the older models too.
Hardly a money grab. Just smart business. They want to sell kits and making improvements is just about the best way to do it. You can't sell the same product for the same price for too long in a competitive market. You have to improve the product or reduce the price. Seems to me they're offering a top notch product at a competitive market price. There's also no rule that says you have to run the 008 model from now on. Plenty of local guys still kick ass with one of the T1 models.

It will likely be one of 2 or 3 options I would guess.
