Default Can anyone verify...?

Just checking out the Spoon website (www.spoon.jp) and it says a full Spoon F20C is 472,500 yen... Ok, so I'm curious, so I go to a currency converter, look up the conversion rate, and... $4,229.70???? I need to start ordering from Japan...

Spoon is the company that specializes in Hondas, and making them fast. the guys they have building the engines know more about them than anyone else in the world. except maybe Mugen, who should come in at a close second.

Sort of like Overfinch is to Range Rover and Saleen is to Mustang... that type of ball park, right?
