Then you turbo the Voodoo...
The car is half the cost because it's a POS. Many people have spoken about how the previous-gen GT500 was massively under-developed given its power output. Not stiff enough, suspension nowhere near being able to handle it effectively, brakes too small, garbage interior, loud, bad ride quality, etc. In terms of the engine, I would be willing to bet that the per-unit cost of the Trinity engine vs. the S63tu is very similar. Also...far more power? A comp package S63tu is making nearly that level of power, and almost as much torque. Probably weighs less as well.
