Well the question is, how can I make a Ferrari type vehicle that's under 40k for the Consumer?
The Question is the novelty in terms of my vehicle being marketable.
Ferrari's 458 Italia uses an Aluminum chassis, why exactly does it cost so much? Is it because of it's Monstrous V8 engine, High Tech Suspension, Formula 1 Gearbox, or because it's just a Ferrari? |
Where did you get this idea? Assuming someone accepts your figure of "2k/3k" for the manufacturing materials of a car, this still does not account for the research and development costs, product testing to ensure DOT compliance, manufacturing facility maintenance & utilities, labor costs, insurance costs, etc.
What you are proposing is a pre-assembled kit car company. If you have quality construction and design, companies like Factory Five are proof you can be profitable, but this is hardly a new concept and it doesn't seem you've done the research on the true costs involved.
