Wow what a price!
At 200k it will be around for awhile. You could source two KMS 289 and 427 with similar appointments and buy a winter beater to boot. I would choose the second option just in case Shelby American is not closing up shop.

The real question is whether or not the CSX continuation cars will ever be collectable? As long as they are being produced I can't see how they could be. Maybe Vegas is closed, will the next location change yet again to create a different car? I doubt it, smoke and mirrors I say.

It's a replication, a great one, yet it is really only worth what you can get for it. Reps are worth the sum of their parts...sometimes labor if it is the right source.
