Ok Evan, I think I finally understand your passionate posturing for your car; to have the non-60s Shelby Cobra cars be recognized as something special so that they retain some higher value.

Secondly, this thread is to further inquire if the whole hobby's future; which would also affect that value. Ok, clear enough.

I have an opposite view. I would rather have the Cobras not be popular. I don't care what my car is worth. I intend to keep it for life and enjoy it as much as possible. I drive it every chance I get. I like that it is unique. If the hobby becomes much more popular, these cars will become like Hondas; ordinary. The main attraction for me is the styling, the simplicity of the car, the rawness of it. Along with that is the fact that the car is somewhat unique. If they become popular, they lose that uniqueness.
