The fastest consumer SSD on the planet is finally available at a semi decent price. As you can see by the below reviews it released around this price, but in US dollars.

To be very clear, this is a niche, high performance type product that not many people are in the market for. You're paying a lot extra for top tier performance and need a Gen 5 motherboard to take advantage of it. Please don't feel compelled to point out that you can buy much cheaper drives than this, we already know.
Next best price I found was $850, but that included a heatsink. The (custom) heatsink version is an extra $50 here which seems expensive but one way or another you're going to need decent cooling for this.
Cooler / less power hungry drives with new controllers are expected to be released this year at some point, but they are still unlikely to be much faster or cheaper.
