$76,000 for a used GT-H rental car???

3500 miles on them...but judging by the looks of the rear brakes...not driven easily.

Not to mention the stripe to the left of the rear plate...looks like somebody tried picking it off with their fingernail. I can't believe the price collecter car or not!!!!! You can get a near 0 mile Shelby GT500 for about $10-15K less than this!!!!! Looking at the option sheet, this was only $8K on top of the GT price($38K). I'd make a clone in a heartbeat!!!!!

I'd love to have it. But it's way too rich for me.

Looks like the rear rotor did on my 94, when the caliper pretty much seized up.

It's kind of early for these to be on eBay isn't it?

It's kind of strange to think that some people would really spend that kind of money on a used Mustang, thinking that it'll be an instant classic just because they paid (right now) nearly 100K dollars for it.

I saw some papers pertaining to an Auction. Does that mean it was auctions off before it was posted on Ebay?

I thought that all of the Hertz cars were going to be sold at public auctions, but I read that last year when these things were first coming out.

I guess all that can be said is. There are still fools out there with more money than brains. I don't forsee any changes in dealer mark-ups coming for cars like this.

I don’t understand what is so special about these cars. Way over hyped in my opinion. I would much rather take that kind of cash and make my own car.

You gotta be kidding me!!


$85,400 for that car!!!

It's my understanding they will be auctioned to Ford dealers who will then do with them what they desire.
The prices are crazy. The Shelby GT will probably be the same way. If Ford would set the price and then build all that anyone is willing to buy, all of us would have a fair chance to own one of these cars.

Yes but that means you are not the type of person who might think of this as an investment. And in a sense I agree I would rather build my own car. But mainly because I can't afford to buy a shelby and have it sit in a garage for 40 years. Not because I don't think it is worth it.
Reality check for anyone. If you could have bought a 1966 GT-H for 3 -4 times it's price back then. Knowing what they are worth now. You would have done it. You would not have said. No I'll build the car the way I want to. These cars may well become another collector car like the originals. They are not mass produced. And while you can build your cars they way you want. It's never going to have the serial number to make it more valuable.

Looks like someone thought this was a GT500.

Did a little research. Hertz held a public auction for 4 GT Hs on 11/16. Lowest mileage (the one on ebay) went for 90K. They actually lost money on that car. Cheapest one went for 68K. So I guess Ford dealers don't have exclusive rights to these cars.
