I've got $23K in mine. This is somewhat obvious to enthusiasts or if my car is sitting next to a $50K car. The real pleasure to me, though, is that it goes because I made it go. It stops because I made it capable of stopping. It looks sharp because I made it look sharp. Etc. etc. I've never built anything before, and I made a lot of mistakes along the way. If my time is worth anything, I've got a mint in the car by now, but it has been so rewarding to drive it around that it is all worth it. It's low-budget and low-tech, but most people never realize it.
