The car does not change but the price increases every 12-18 months, before long a new one is 15-20K more than what you paid for one new.


I have made money on very new cobra I bought and driven it for years. This includes backdraft and superformance. Other builds do not enjoy this same return on investmnt because there are to many variables in the build. Superformance is like Rolex it is perceived to be the "best" by the first time buyers (in my opinion it was the best i ever had but cost more than BDR which is the best at their price point).

Everyone wants a 427 be it big or small block, everyone loves Roush, no comment, so if you build to sell one day build what sells now and you will be a happy seller.

Guess what, there is no law saying you cant MAKE money on a car you sell. The best selling combination right now and for 2-3 years has been a superformance with a roush 427. .

If your paying $60,000 for a roller and putting $20,000 in engine, trans, etc your at $80,000, not in your wildest dreams are you selling that SPF for a profit, unless the buyer is on drugs...
