I just don't see the $50K appeal. You can buy a Model 3 Performance for $50K brand new. It's an ugly electric car, to me, and I doubt the driving experience will be as fun as an electric FR-S, but it's an ugly electric car with a warranty. The only way this is remotely sensible is if you are trying to comply with strict emissions laws and you don't want to deal with removing modifications for emissions tests. Isn't a fully built FR-S engine $9K or less? $50K puts you in the ballpark of several nice used cars. I will keep monitoring this to see how long it takes for the price to come down.
