I believe P. T. Barnum once said "There's one born every day." In this case its the seller who is asking that much but that could change to the sucker-I mean buyer that would pay that much.

Currently on Ebay. $750.00?
Now I know that the car in question has a certain mystique about it. It is perceived to be more difficult to assemble than it really is. But really!
The kit is still in production and I doubt any custom builder would charge that kind of rate to build this car. I know that I don't for the 4 I've built.
Maybe it's time to revisit my building rates.
