Did you expect the stock C6 engine to come for such a low price? I did not!
Stock engine of my VW Golf cost almost the same...

That's not the total price -- this is GM Parts Direct, they generally have VERY high shipping charges.
The price with shipping is "approximately" $5,625.00. Still not too bad for a brand new LS2.

One engine for modding... or just looking great on an engine stand in the garage.
There are a few business laptop computers that sell for near this price... I'll take the LS2!
I have a feeling this could become one popular boat motor...

I absolutely agree with boat motor idea...
I friend of mine was replacing recently his 5.7l Chey boat engine; engine alone was costing him 11k USD
