Honestly I don't think I would bother with a twin. Twice the operating cost for marginal performance gain. At least the Spartan has style for the price of admission.
You could carry 1500# plus fuel for an entry price of about $65k on a good single with low hours on the engine. Figure $135 per hour the engine is running and cruise at 167kts.
SLO Dave could chime in with a better idea of everything involved.
