I wish I hadnt gotten into this,,I gotta stop taking it out in the forum when my wife Piss** me off,,lol
I didnt understand your post Karl,What I was wondering is when all the dust settles,and the economy being up or down,dosent matter for the sake of comparison,how the guy who has over 50 in a brand x car,{those I already see offered for sale in the 30's}will fare compared to a guy who has say 50 to 55 in a decent sai car{less than 1000 total mfg},be it south african or not,,to me its a no brainer.
Not that I think thats all there is ,I agree in buying to enjoy ,but I didnt bring up the argument,no matter who says what,or how great anyones car is,a Colt is still a Colt,a Harley is still a Harley,a Shelby Cobra is still a Shelby Cobra,{in public eyes},and Coke is still the real thing.
No matter how good or bad the economy,or how many replicas there are ,there will always be some young guy on a roll with a few bucks to blow on a dream toy,my guess is he will buy something that says shelby first,and for more money,actually I bet 50k on it.I think a 55k shelby now,will bring more in 10 years,I doubt that can be said for anything else.
There have been built less than 700 cars counting the originals,as you said the market is pretty saturated with other makes,Tk
