In recent memory there was the Bianchi Ducati Corse which I think
was around $15K, but I can't remember if that was AUD. May have actually
been USD.

But in that case price doesn't reflect quality. It reflects the willingness
of buyers to pay that much and/or the level of profit desired by the
manufacturer/seller.
