Engine - 1k
Gearbox with diff - 650
Wheels - 300
Brakes - 400
Cage - 300
Coilovers - 250
Whiteline - 80
Seats and harness - 250
Shell - 300

All this adds up to 3530 so you'd probably make a loss if you paid asking price then broke it.

No doubt it cost over 5k to build but some stuff you don't get your money back on, e.g. a respray (usually costing near 1K).

You really couldn't build it for that.

Looks really nice.
