Default What about an Aluminum CSX4000 car for $50K??
What about an aluminum roller (unpainted) for $49.9K? $39.9K (new CSX 4000 car) + $10K for a Kirkham body (based off of ebay sales prices averaging $12K or so assuming a slight discount for quanitity) taking into account any incremental charge to assemble an aluminum car being offset by the lack of paint/prep work to a glass body?

Ok, maybe $50 is a bit low - so say the final price of the glass CSX car is $44K and the body price/labor is more than I projected...we are still at roughly $55-60K.....at which point the CSX Price = Kirkham's price.

I guess Shelby would never offer those pricing levels on an aluminum car, but who knows.


Thoughts?
