Will people pay more for a CSX number car. Yes if that is what they want and they are willing to pay for it. Which one will appreciate more? The less expensive SP car has way more room as a percentage to grow with a lot less invested. Cars normally are not great investments. There are a hand full that will appreciate as the 6 speed and tech makes pure drivers cars more valuable and desirable. What are you looking for. A CD you can drive or a car you can enjoy and use and not lose money on even putting miles on the car. Sounds like you are looking for something that is close to an original as possible with a tube style frame. You answered your own questions. Me I want to drive the car so the stiffer Box Frame I see as an upgrade to the design. Get the car you can afford and enjoy it. If makes you sleep better to have CSX stamped on the car pony up the extra 100K. Personally unless your are a collector who is looking at the frame stamp? Car is all about the look, presence and sound. Good luck and enjoy. For me I can have a Ducati Monster 1200R, Maserati Coupe GT and Jag F-type in the garage for the same money. I need a garage door open rear picture like we all saw in on poster as kids. PPI on my hope to be Cobra today. Hopefully in the garage Thursday.
