I hear and appreciate what you are saying and can agree with a lot of it ... but I for one, do have confidence in a least some of the next generation.
I was an active Band Booster for 10 years at the local public High School while my kids were there, and can say from what I saw, there are a lot of smart, hard working and dedicated students out there. Yes there is a wide range of kids, some headed in the right direction, and others are not.
From what I see, there is also interest in cars by the next generation, maybe not as much interest in the fire breathing all American V8 that we all know and love, but some kids really do appreciate the 'old' stuff.
Given the relative small number of Cobras of all types out there, I believe they will always be desirable. Whether they go up or down in 'value' I have no idea, but I think there will be a continued interest in these cars as time goes by.
