Gray's car has a number of options, and his was priced well below that. The price you are quoting is MSRP; which is far and away from the price the consumer ends up paying. Of course, some people will still buy one over MSRP if they don't do their do diligence.

Still, the VR4 is a damn cool machine; would be A LOT less to buy, and depending on how many miles he cleans house with; he will likely be able to sell it for about as much as he paid (assuming all mechanicals are good)
