That's actually reasonable.  If you want to bring the cost down, just 
buy an M2ATX power supply (80USD) which is an intelligent power supply 
for any motherboard designed specifically for car use.  Buy the 
motherboard and all other components locally and fabricate your own 
casing depending on the type of setup you want.  Casing can even be made 
of wood as long as you have two fans cooling the components. 

My CarPC finally found its home in my muscle car running LinuxICE, a 
distro built for car computers:
