Why Are Used Aircams Sooooo Expensive?

I get that Aircams look like they really are a superior ultralight and that they are probably awesome to fly. They have two engines instead of just one and look amazing but I still have a hard time wrapping my head around the asking price of at least $250,000 USD for most of the used ones I see out there. I fly an IFR certified light twin Cessna with partial glass panel that has a range of 1100NM and a useful loaf of 1650# and it would sell for far less than an Aircam. I could get a really nice used Challenger on floats for $60K CAD. Not the same I know but... Is it because the Aircams are owner built and there is just so much work that goes into them? Are they that hard to come by? Am I missing something???
Are there any of these located on southern Ontario Canada? Perhaps I need a ride in one so I can understand fully what is going on here...
