So by that level of thinking paying 20k for a chunk of metal fashioned into a car is unreasonable?
When we have Star Trek style replicators that can instantly materialize an endless number of perfect car copies for essentially no cost, then yes it will be.

If refusing to pay for a sequence of bits is considered cheap, then yes, by all means, call me cheap.
