I think you could figure the equivalent cost of SASOL-style coal-derived gasoline as being the upper price limit of oil-based gasoline. Gasoline has to stay low enough not to trigger the construction of coal-to-gasoline refineries.
The price of coal-gasoline would improve over time as the technology became more widely employed.
The catch is, as it often is, you would have a very difficult time ever getting a permit to build such a plant; no jurisdiction is going to want to deal with it. The fact that such a plant is in direct competition with OPEC would guarantee that the environmentalists would go crazy.
US oil companies would not be a problem, however, as they would most probably own it and the coal field supplying it.
