45k? No no, the mx204 with enough license to do BGP is more like 20k -
25k or less. It is actually quite cheap, so I doubt the OP will find
anything much cheaper without going used or do a software router.

I feel it should be mentioned that a Linux box with 4x10G NIC and some
random switch as port expander also will be able to fulfil the
requirements and for a fraction of any other solution.

Including the code maturity for BGP, IS-IS, OSPF and friends?
