Hey, I hope he sells a lot of them for lots of money too. I hope my neighbor sells his house for $500,000 more than I think it is worth. Helps the value of my car (and my house). When I go to buy another one - not so much.
I just don't think in these economic times this is a great business move. Two reasons:
1. I don't think the pricing of a Shelby with a CSX number is elastic enough. Many people who would buy at the lower price will look elsewhere.
2. If you jack the price up and people look around they will see Kirkham. If they compare them, many would say they prefer the better car (Kirkham) than the CSX serial number. I would be one of them. Shelby is just one more person making cars that look like this (as has been proven in several court cases).
