Guys...opinions run in all directions and everyone is entitled to express their's on this site. However, stephen_becker is an authorized Shelby dealer and an advertising supporter of this site. As such, he is permitted to post news and info related to his business. ...and he should be able to do that without a large dose of opinion...at least on his business-related posts. I would ask that just legit questions be asked of Planet Cobra about the topic here. Feel free to start your own thread with any divergent opinions. :cool: Thanks ron ClubCobra Moderator |

Back on topic. As for the OP, I hope he sells a gazillion of them at whatever price the market will bear. It's called capitalism, something our current leadership has failed to grasp. |
Stephen,
I'm sorry if this has been asked before but what about existing stock for a dealer that might have a CSX roller in the showroom? Does that roller bump up 10k also? This isn't a smart a$$ question or flame. Just wondering.:confused: |
Yes, if A dealership has one in stock, on or after 12/01 then the MSRP for the in-stock csx car moves to $ 59,995.00

none - No improvements just a higher price to cover the weak dollar, increase production costs, material costs, etc. |

Just honest feedback from someone who bought his roller at $49995. I am all for capitalism since I own 2 businesses BUT when optioned I was above $60K before I got to motor and powertrain. Considering in todays market they are worth (even still on original MSO) at best $90-100K I wouldn't do it again considering you will be at $60-70K for the roller, $20K or more for motor and trans IF you are on a budget, $10K for the install you are still well over $100-120K. Just be prepared for it to be worth less than $100K as soon as you take possession. I didn't buy mine for an investment I bought it to enjoy the car, but I know some have and IMHO, anyone who thinks the continuation cars will increase in value will be waiting a long time, if ever.

FWIW, new is new and used is used, but I love this used CSX at $90K obo:

@ csx4910: When I was shopping for my Kirkham 15 mos ago, the CSX glass and KMP were priced within a grand (total build). I was a bit torn. I'm not a detractor of CSX glass. In fact, I like them a lot. There was 'something' about aluminum and all that comes with a Kirkham, and that's why I ended up going that way. But I wonder what the extra 10k will do to the folks who might be on the fence over a glass CSX or KMP? Come to think of it, what would I have done?%/:LOL:
@ Rodknock: I noticed too. There are a couple of sweet deals in the 80k range for gently used CSX glass car right now. |

Cobra buyers who want a CSX will buy a CSX. Obviously, if they can afford the alloy CSX, then that's what they'll get. Cobra buyers who want an alloy Cobra for basically the same price range as a glass CSX (per CSX4910, a CSX roller with options is $60K soon to be $70K) and don't mind that it's not a CSX, will buy the Kirkham. There are some Cobra buyers who will not buy a CSX and opt for the Kirkham. And then there are buyers who will not buy a Kirkham and opt for the CSX. There are some Cobra buyers who don't want aluminum period and don't want or can't buy a glass CSX, and then choices are voluminous. Just different people want different things. Chocolate and vanilla. That's how I see it. :) |
I didnt know about the kirkham then or I would of went that way for about the same money. My roller ended up at $65K with pretty much all the options except for stripes so that same car would be $75K now as a roller. Most of the rollers I have seen advertised have options addded to them so I would suspect most of these new rollers are going to be higher than $59995. More power to them if they can sell at that price but to me it is like pricing your house $10000 higher to compensate for a bad economy. Doubt they will have people lining up to pay extra in a bad economy unless there is extra value.
I love my car but if I had to do it over again I would do that KMP to get the alum. I have kicked myself for not going csx alum as I could of had one for under a $20K difference. I understand now it is a $40-50K difference. csx4910 |
