That 3.0L V8 in that Atom is no joke

I'd still rather have the supercharged K20 though, more bang for the buck and it would take me longer to wrap it around a tree

Looks like it's 15k for 2 seats for the LP-640 not including the seat covers which is an extra 7k lol.

Believe it or not the body parts have gotten cheaper recently.
It used to be that the panels were all hand made. I remember a story about a 512BB (may be wrong model) that had a fender wrecked. The insurance company had to pay for a Ferrari metal worked to fly out and make one

book rate is measured in troy oz. of gold, so probably a lot.

I mean you can get a F355 for mid to low 40k now. You're just going to be spending half of that a year on maintaining it
