My original email was apparently cut off mid-sentence by some sort of
formatting problem.
The response to the price question was supposed to read:

I emailed the marketing manager and the response was:
"The same as the 5071A-C001 and 5071A-C002.
We donÂ’t publish the list price, you have to quote, but in general
it is greater than $70k."

The PTTI paper which originally kicked off this thread stated that the
design goal was production until 2035.  The thought was that a different
technology may have superseded the 5071 design by then (the design will be
nearly 45 years old at that point).

See above.  I see plenty of cars which cost well more than that around
here, but having a 5071 probably doesn't impress your neighbors as much.
