Not Ranked
Ned: No one is suggesting that the Goodwood Revival admit anything other than original vintage cars. I would not advocate to change that. Ridiculous. History has to be preserved. Those cars have a history that should not be interfered with or diluted. I get it and so do all Continuation owners.
Do I think my car will be worth as much as a COB. Nah, likely not. Don't be so sensitive Ned. Lord knows...look at me and what I deal with and I'm still a fun guy.  Will my Shelby increase in value? Yes, its worth more than I have in it from 15 years ago. Good chance it will continue to appreciate or hold its value. If SAI takes a tank again then definitely yes. Likely double overnight. But...not the real reason I own it. I love it and love its connection to history, Cobra lore and its connection to CS and SAI and the original car it represents in a new generation of Shelbys.
Yeah, its different than original in a number of ways as far as time, who made it and other details I guess you could pick at.
But its the same in one major and crucial way. Its a Shelby Cobra.
It comes down to respect. Give it to get it.
