This question is like asking how much money does it cost to take a lady out to dinner and a nite on the town. It could be McDonald's and a movie and spend 40$ with change left over. or it could be Morton's Steak house with wine, and then a nite at the opera. That could set you back $400.00 for the nite. It all depends on what you want the end result to be.

If buying a new kit, and taking the McDonald's route then I am gonna guess 20K with you doing all the work. Likewise you can spend 35K in a heart beat, and even more with all the upgraded stuff.

Mainly build it to suit yourself, some people eat to live, others live to eat. It all depends on what floats your boat.

Main thing is to enjoy the journey which ever route you take.
