Beautiful airplane and Rick does top notch work - I've seen several of his
airplanes and talked with him on a few occasions. However, I suspect he's
testing the market price wise. RV-10's are commanding high prices due to
supply and demand, but this may be on the way, way, optimistic side. Of
course, it costs a lot to build an RV-10, particularly with all new stuff
firewall forward and lots of goodies in the panel. Firewall forward, he
probably has $50k in the airplane, the kit itself is $50k or so if you go
with the quickbuild, and a panel can set you back anywhere from $5k to the
GDP of a mid-sized European country. Add $15k for interior, paint, and
various nit-picky accessories and you can easily spend $150k to build one.

I've looked into building one on the cheap with a mid time engine and a
Day/Night/Gyro VFR panel and think it would take a miracle to bring one in
at $100k or less.

Of course, that's pretty good for a 200 mph cross country airplane that can
carry 4 real people and a few bags.
