Guy near me just built a Lancair 4. Beautiful plane, although some of
the design features are just stupid, but a nice looking plane. Has to
be valued at least $350K First years insurance is $12,000.

Yikes, that's a lot of money, but for a $350k, 300+ mph, retract
homebuilt it does not seem that far out of whack.

I did a quick Google groups search and see rates from $5-10k quoted
for Mooney Bravos and SR22s (similarly priced & one is a retract).
