Well, they use also tons of carbon instead of iron/aluminum to lower weight, so that price may be justifiable. Maybe.

There's probably less carbon on the base models, than on the heavier high end models.

That's "add lightness".

Well sometimes yeah, and then there is the nylon strap instead of a handle on the door for your $300K car.

Real badges replaced by sticker badges for aerodynamic drag / weight had me laughing just a BIT more than the flagged 'door handles'.
