I might be mistaken, because I've only glanced over the numbers...but I think that actual camera body itself is around $25k. The Epic M is almost $60k, and I'm not sure that it is available on the market yet.
The scrapped their small fixed lens Scarlet model and will be reworking/rebranding it as the Epic S, which will be in the $10-12k range.
We live in an area where there are a number of features filmed here each year, and there's only one company in town with one available for rental. I've embarked on an entirely new career and this is part of it.

I have an Epic M on order. The price is $58,000 and it comes with everything you need except for lenses.

The Fixed Scarlet 8x is not scrapped. It will be out sometime this year for around $6,000 to $7,000. There will also be a Scarlet Removable version too that does not not come with any lens at all for around $3,000 for the body. That should come out late this year or early next. Scarlet cameras have a 2/3" sensor and a max resolution of 3k.
The Epic X is the same as the Epic M, but will not be hand machined. Epic X should be shipping this year at a price of $28,000 for the body.
Epic S is $11k to $12k and is like a low powered Epic X/M. Same resolution, but not capable of 120 fps @5k or 300fps @2k.
Epic X/M will be upgradable to the Dragon sensor in 2012. No one knows the specs for the new sensor yet. The Epic S will not be upgradable.
Here is the Epic M package:
Carry on...
