Ah shucks, I was figuring DG would outsource LS-4 production to US.

Talking about the LS-4b: It's back in production (by Walter Eisele, a
well-known german glider pilot), now called LS-4/2005.

Price is 39.400 Euro, complete with retractable gear and water bags.
Winglets are optional.

Well, if we talk about money...

SZD-55, also back in production, but much more modern design than LS-4 (some
ten years younger)
Price: 34.990 Euro, so the buyer still has 4.500Euro in his pocket, and a
more modern glider in the hangar.
I would just count if the 'LS' on the side of the cockpit is worth
4.500Euro.
The '55' price list: http://www.szd.com.pl/downloads/01-551.html

Lots of bang for a buck, isn't it?
