$203,000 Car price + shipping
$20,300 GST
$2000 to $3,000 Various import duties and taxes.
Total price before on road costs... $225,300

PDK Gear box... Yea it's nice but more to go wrong down that track. (I've driven one)
PASM... That's for people who can't drive a high performance car without getting into trouble.

It really depends on how you want to burn money. What will a 997 be worth in 5 years time?
I absolutely guarantee you the Singer will be worth more.

Meanwhile it has everything I want in a car and nothing I don't.
I like the way you think

Actually the price has come down.

When I first read about this car in 911 Porsche World the price was about $300,000 USD!
Of course if you started ticking the options boxes you could make it a very very expensive.

For instance... What would a current GT2 engine and its 6 speed gearbox cost?

I think the thing has a GT3 crankshaft as it is.
