My very recent quotes for rubber (Euroshield) were approximately 2x the quotes for good quality fibreglass composite shingles. So for you, that could be somewhere from $18k up. That's for the cheaper (lightweight) rubber, as well. The heavier weight ones were quoted approx another 20% higher than that. The two things that ruled out Euroshield for us were the limited colour selection and some questions about how well the company deals with warranty issues on this still relatively new product. We wanted something more time-tested.
We talked to one metal roof vendor as well (will give you the name by PM if you want). This was the only type of metal I looked into because we didn't like the look, but it was very expensive and I wasn't a fan of their sales pitch.
Ultimately we chose to replace our current concrete tile with a similar product. For us, it's about the same cost as rubber would have been because we could use the less expensive "heavy" concrete tiles (roof was engineered for them). But for a New Brighton roof (re-roof job) you'd likely need to use the more expensive "lightweight" concrete tiles if you wanted this.
