They're a lot less expensive than most people first think. (think "price of a fairly nice car" not "price of a nice house"; though obviously they go up in price to "whatever number you have in mind", most are in the 5-figure or just barely-6-figure range.)

What about the upkeep, insurance, storage, and maintenance? I suspect(?) those would be substantial.

Similar order of magnitude as owning a ski or other boat over 21' or so. Not "cheap", but not outrageous.

Holy cow.

I applaud your good fiscal management. At the same time, I hope you give serious consideration to treating home-brewed automobile maintenance differently than airplane maintenance.
