It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

I mean, if you are a car manufacturer and have the hardware to mass manufacture bent sheets of metal, things are going to be cheaper. And is 5k after inflation?

I'm not saying the thing is reasonably priced, just that there's a lot of factors to consider

Molded fiberglass would be REALLY easy to have organic shapes. And way lighter. This is done 100% for aesthetics.

Look at all the cheap dune buggy kits from the 60s. All molded fiberglass.
