Planes are expensive AF to maintain
After Gran Turismo came out, the local computer store put up a rig. It was over 7K. Holy crap.
I bet this cost more than that.
Imagine what a real car costs
I once bought a more or less running car for $50.
For that price, I'm gonna go with "more running." As in, "I've been doing more running because my car doesn't work."
It was able to get onto the trailer under it's own power, and I drove it to work the following Monday... it needed a water pump to be "driveable" but I ended up doing a few other things to the car. It was an old Geo Metro and I wanted one to tinker with. I spent about $600 getting the car like I wanted it.
For $50 running is how you move it.
