I know. Lance offered me the opportunity to buy their development CSX9000 alloy car. It would have been a heck of a car, but the haggled down price (with power train) was 200K.

This doesn't pan out. Noone is going to be able to hammer out by hand an alloy body for $10K above the price of a glass shell.
