I listed my long ez for $95k a while back and got 3 separate offers for $90k and decided not to sell. There are small pieces of cardboard that have sold for millions called baseball cards. Value is solely dependent on what 1 person is willing to pay and not based on the opinion of the masses. Value is driven by those who write the checks. Period. So if Jamie gets $50k for his Varieze then good for him. Not our job to chime in on value unless we are prepared to pony up the cash or have been hired by a prospective buyer to value it based on personal opinion at the request of the buyer Best of luck with the sale Jamie.

Alright all, here's the performance data so far. Only 8 hrs on the bird and still tweaking to do that should get her even faster: UL Power 390is, 160hp. 220lbs installed leaves the ground in 1000ft climbs out at 1900ft/ min solo WOT (3000rpm) at 3000ft is 182kts TAS.

Hey all. Thought I'd throw in my thoughts since I'll be flying my UL power Ez in a couple weeks Installation is true plug n play. The engine is a work of art. Runs like a Swiss watch and power is awesome. 220 lbs and 160hp Both Gary Hertzler and Craig Catto are making props for these powerhouses. The engine is so smooth it's almost creepy. Like an electric motor. Weight and balance will be finished in 10 days and I'll post it all on the build log. I agree with the statement that an engine out away from home will suck for parts and maintenance but the engine is a very simple design and the parts will soon be sold by wicks. Furthermore, the engines have been flying for several years and beat to death by aerobatic aircraft in Europe and they keep on ticking. I'm impressed enough at this point that I will probably never fly a different piston engine again.
