Hi I am currently building 601XL / 650
Depending on the value of the dollar
kit about $35,000 depending on options,
Engine new $25- 30000 depends on what you want,
Avionics. Depends again,$10-15000 on what you want.
Paint and seats, up to,$10,000
So you have about a $80-90,000 brad new 2 seater, that you built and can maintain.
Buy a second hand XL or 650 for around $50-60000 and you need a Lame to maintain.

Are you in for the build, the fly, both or just because it's cheaper to operate at first glance..?
