Half a year ago I asked around about the price of a DA62 I’m Brazil and it would be in the range of 1.6M USD (8M BRL).

Did the price you quote (600k USD) was for the single engine model? If so, how much would a DA62 cost you in the US?

Not cheap! Just checking on Trade-A-Plane and they're like $1.3m USD on the low end :/ https://www.trade-a-plane.com/filtered/search?s-type=aircraf...

A 2021 DA40 with Garmin glass is around $625K https://www.trade-a-plane.com/search?category_level1=Single+...

Yes a new DA40NG is around $600k, as is a new Cessna 172. A new DA62 is well into $1.5m with the options you'd want if spending that kind of money, and a 2-year wait last I heard.

Meanwhile you could build something like a Velocity V-Twin well-equipped for under half a million. Paying for certified lawyering is expensive.
