I think you are foregetting one thing, you can not buy a GT40 or an AC Cobra for $75K but you can buy a REAL DeLorean for about $20K all day long. Why spend twice, or three times as much on a replica? You could buy a real one and add the interior, new engine and what ever else you like and still never hit the $75K mark. The reason Lamborghini kits sell for $35 is because a real used Countach is $85K.
