James,

Yes, it does seem "crazy"....but, consider this; First off, I'm a professional at replicating full sized motorsports subjects in scale, let's say I put in 200 hours building this car, (which is under estimated), my time is worth money, even at $5.00 per hour, (and it's definitely worth more than that), that's a g-note right there....Yeah, I know it can't be based on my time alone, of course there is the materials required to build this model and the time spent in researching the full size car. It's not very often that builders such as myself will part with their prized possessions, the fact that this model has won numerous awards and featured on the cover of a magazine makes it truly, a one of a kind.
Now think about this....my McLaren MP4/6...what do you think this is worth? I would not consider anything less than $15000.00!!! And yes, this model is insured for that amount.

Food for though....Thanks for your comments though!
