I don't know what you mean by "top computer", but 16gb is still not very usual amount of RAM in laptops even today.

Finding a laptop with 32 GB of RAM for sale is pretty rare even. Dell only seems to offer it on their Alienware laptops (over $3000 each).
They are rare (and it's hard to google for them..) but I got one in the summer of 2016 for just under 5000 PLN (about 1400-1500 USD and that already includes 23% Polish VAT)[0].

They are pretty rare. Been looking for one myself for a while now.
There are others, inclusing Lenovo and Systems76. They’re all top of the line though, same price levels as the Dell you mention.
And I personally won’t buy Lenovo.
I bought my new work laptop from System76 in January this year with 32 GB RAM for around $1800 (including VAT paid upon importing the device into the EU). They are one of the few vendors that make it simple to configure a laptop with 32 GB RAM.
Their XPS line also has 32gb
I guess that XPS model is region limited? It's not showing up for me in the Netherlands. (Or their filter function is broken.)
