I'd love to see a side by side comparison of GM's cost of the C5R and Audi's cost for the R8. They had somewhat similar life spans and both were campaigned as factory efforts.
GT1 regs allow more scope for development, as competition has increased the cars have become increasingly complex.

The base GT2 regs are more restrictive, so costs could be kept down, without sacrificing much pace.
