Purpose

This document provides a rough conceptual example of how a CSG-Go build might be priced when multiple independent shops collaborate on a vehicle.

These numbers are not fixed prices.

Every shop sets its own rates and services.

The purpose of this document is simply to illustrate how a distributed build could be structured.

--------------------------------------------------

Example Build Stages

Stage 1 – Frame Fabrication

Fabrication shop produces the tubular frame based on the Goblin V1 geometry and the CSG-Go platform specifications.

Example cost range:
$900 – $1,800

--------------------------------------------------

Stage 2 – Suspension and Steering Installation

Installation of suspension components and steering hardware using compatible Chevrolet Cobalt components.

Example cost range:
$500 – $1,200

--------------------------------------------------

Stage 3 – Engine and Drivetrain Installation

Installation of the Ecotec engine and drivetrain system into the CSG-Go engine bay configuration.

Example cost range:
$900 – $2,000

--------------------------------------------------

Stage 4 – Electrical System Installation

Installation of wiring harnesses, lighting systems, and electrical components necessary for street operation.

Example cost range:
$300 – $800

--------------------------------------------------

Stage 5 – Body Panels and Mounting

Installation of body panels or basic metal paneling depending on the selected build tier.

Example cost range:
$400 – $1,200

--------------------------------------------------

Stage 6 – Final Assembly and Inspection

Final adjustments, mechanical checks, and completion of vehicle assembly.

Example cost range:
$400 – $900

--------------------------------------------------

Example Total Build Range

Using the ranges above, a typical early build might fall within the approximate range of:

$3,400 – $7,900

Depending on build tier, component choices, and shop rates.

--------------------------------------------------

Tier Impact

The CSG-Go tier system allows customers to adjust quality and finishing levels.

Lower tiers may include:

• simpler body panels
• basic interior configuration
• minimal finishing

Higher tiers may include:

• upgraded panels
• improved finishing
• enhanced accessories

Each shop determines which tiers it is willing to support.

--------------------------------------------------

Why Distributed Builds Matter

Traditional vehicle manufacturing requires large factories and significant capital.

The CSG-Go model allows smaller shops to participate in vehicle production by focusing on their specific skills.

By dividing the build across multiple shops, the system allows:

• local builders to collaborate
• flexible pricing
• experimentation and innovation

--------------------------------------------------

Important Note

These example numbers are purely conceptual.

Actual pricing depends entirely on participating shops and the services they provide.

Each builder remains fully independent and determines their own rates.

Thank You

The CSG-Go project explores new ways for independent builders to collaborate on vehicle manufacturing.

Early builders help shape the future of the platform.
