Not Ranked
If FFR was to purchase SIA and just "closet" the operation, I think the CSX4000 series cars would go up in value for sure. After all, they would be the "last of the "real" Shelby Cobra's".
If FFR was to purchase SIA and continue the sale of "new" Shelby Cobra's, it would be a total loss. Like it or not, the two companies are concidered at each end of the Cobra food chain. I think this would make the CSX4000 series Cobra's that were already made go down in value, but then they would go back up in value as the initial "shock" of the sale went away.
There really wouldn't be much reason for FFR to purchase SIA, as several have pointed out before "the sales pitch of the CSX4000 car is that it is a Shelby Cobra". FFR and SIA aren't really ever in competition with each other. The only reason I could see anyone purchasing SIA is to put a end to the lawsuits.
Mr. Shelby has already said he is working with Ford on a new Shelby Cobra.
