The Shelby is a GREAT performer, it's just not going to be a rare car.

I think you hit the nail on head with this comment. If you're buying an 07 GT500, do it because you love the car - not because you think it'll be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars someday.

If you are referring to the car sold at Barret-Jackson, he will. The auction proceeds were being donated to the CS Children's Fund, so it should be completely tax deductible. Not to mention he has a fully documented one of a kind car. that guy was not as dumb as some people might have you believe.

Oh I never said he was dumb. Good for him. I just hoped he'd make some money back.

You are looking at this all wrong

For Performance Driven people do you want a viper or stang, Saleen or Shelby? See what i mean, not by the way comparing those as a viper is to saleen as stang is to shelby. But performance guys wants what goes fastest today and fix the broken parts tomorrow just like anyone else, Reliability is just not the huge factor or shouldn't be. Because if you spend that money for the car you better be able to pay to fix that car. On the other hand (my personal side) who has a bigger name, you don't see them selling vintage saleen cars for hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars because he came in when cars were already advanced to the point of easy manipulation. The guy who made it possible for guys like Steve Saleen is Carol Shelby therefor i buy his car. Thanks everybody for seeing it my way :SNSign:
