I don't believe that people are going to pay a considerable amount of money more for a CSX1000 car over a nice alloy CSX4000 car. I really don't think the AC "connection" on the CSX1000 series add enough value to warrant a large dollar value increase.

Here's a similar scenario.... Backdraft Coupe vs SPF Coupe. Both priced very similarly, yet the SPF Coupe was actually designed by Peter Brock. Not inspired by Brock, or endorsed by Brock, but actually designed by him. And yet there's no added "dollar value" from that over other similar quality Coupes.

If that makes sense to you, that's the point I am making on the CSX1000 deal.
I agree with Alan, around $165K , give or take some. I believe there are no more CSX1000's being made, with just 10 or 20 made. So there is definitely a limited supply, and all it takes is one buyer. If your willing to wait for that buyer, I bet you would get 165 at some point, maybe right away, maybe not.

The coupe thing is not exactly the same, as neither the Brock coupe or the BDR coupe are identical to the originals in design/construction, which I believe detracts from the value for some, maybe alot, of the consumers, where as the CSX1000 car is identical in construction to the original, as are the alum Csx4000's and kirkhams.
