I'm fairly confident that Daytona would cost much less than GT40. GT40's just have too much extra expense over Cobra/Daytona. I seriously worked out the cost to build a GT40 a while back, just not worth it. So jumped on a completed car that was in need of a freshen up.

I expect Daytona to be be only slightly more expensive than Cobra. The Daytona body & chassis will be more expensive, much more to it(tilt front, roof, rear spolier, ducts etc)but you get rollbar, windscreen etc. For Cobra roll bar & windscreen you are looking at a couple of grand.

Mind you I haven't heard of pricing from Warwick yet.

I saw some trick stuff on that daytona. On Harrison's you always see equivalent of a strut brace(Daytona doesn't have it bolted in yet). But on the Daytona Warwick had also added a tubular brace across the bottom of the engine mounts. That idea might have come from race development Warwick does.
