Back on topic, lol....

I agree the prices of car/plane stuff is out of balance.

I would think part of it is related to R&D costs. This excuse doesn't always fly, but I'm sure it's ture in some cases... more time and effort in designing them. And there must be more costs on the back-end also, in warranty claims etc.

Heck, look at Hacker... they finally just gave up on designing a new car line. They either:
1. couldn't build it good enough
2. didn't think there was a big enough market for it, or
3. they were afraid of having a mess of blown up product like the original hacker car escs.
