About 2 years ago I talked to the people at Rotus. They have a few different
build levels that they will sell - "all the parts in a box (no engine)",
"roller (no engine)", and "turnkey". For a 6'2" person, the turbo rotary
is the only option that will fit you. The Rover V8 is too long. The turnkey
turbo rotary option was $25,500 at the time, the "parts in a box" was $13,000.
