"3.0 16 v turbo? Custom interiour. 15k is a lot to throw into a 944 "
You're not getting near a good 3.0 16 valve for 15k, so don't even worry about the interior. You can spend 10k on the engine without blinking twive. Vitesse stg 4, for an over bored/stroked motor, goes for 3900.00 alone. Without that, you then have to sleeve a standard 968/s2+ rods+ pistons
+ labor, + turbo charger+ header+ intake manifold...see whaere i'm going with the 3.0 16 valve. Bye the time you get the car completely road worthy, you will have shot bye 20 k and are going up fast.
But...Complete rebuild of 2.5/with big head/ Vitesse stage 3, perhaps modded crank, clutch-pres. plate(lightened) sfr stge 2 ex headers, cam, big IC, and all of the misc. goodies to handle the power/electricty/fuel needs,(do the research and you will be SHOCKED how it all adds up.) and you've spent damn near 15k for 450 rwhp.
So do this. 6500 for total fresh engine rebiuild(inc shop labor). 3500.00 for exterior upgrades. 1000.00 to make int as good as possible. 4000.00 for suspension upgrades.
No labor added to the last 3 catagories. Again, add it all up, and you will be SHOCKED how fast 15 k goes.

Carrera GT>$400k. I believe the MSRP is ~$440k, not sure though. The prices dropped like mad for a little while, but they appear to be leveling out at around $400k. This is all what I read a while back, so it could be off.
