Mr. Mustang:
Are you saying that a 427 S.O engined Superformance Cobra sales for only $4,000.00 more than a small block or 460 engined Superformance?
Resale value is about the loss of the worth of the vehicle you are purchasing. If a 2000 4cyl Ford Contour (original price $15,000.00) sales for $6,500.00 in 2003 and a 2000 6cyl Ford Contour (original price $20,000.00) sales for $11,500.00 in 2003 than they both lost $8,500.00 in value. You are trying to say that the 6 cylinder Contour has the better "resale value" because it sold for "more money".
As I have said before, the 427 Superformance Cobra would sale quicker because it is a rare engine combination in a Superformance Cobra and some people just have to have the "original" engine in a "non-original" Cobra.
If we could get past this bull$hit we could get to the point that MOST Superformance Cobra's hold there value about the same. Regardless if there is a slight difference either way, I would recommend having the car built with the engine/transmission that meets what you want out of the car. I have found out that what helps the resale value of any Superformance Cobra is having the current modifications available and lot's of chrome in the engine compartment (just to name a few...).
