8,400 miles in 15 years? Seems to have spent more time typing than driving.

Someone fleeing the markets might look to this as a more tangible asset to hold; real estate prices seem to have an inverse relationship to stock indices for the same reason.

Posted in another thread about how companies like Factory Five will soon be able to sell turnkey cars, not just kits and parts. Perhaps Shelby will soon begin selling REAL Cobras again?

Evan has some other very nice cars too and I hope that he gets what he is asking for the Cobra. Wish I could afford to buy it. I believe he is thinking about one of the 2017 GT-350Rs now if he can get one. I enjoyed my chats and PMs with him.

Don't read too much into the legislation that you refer to. It requires the seller to install a modern (new) emissions compliant power train. The market for such a configuration in the US seems to be fairly limited for the Cobra market where most people prefer a period correct type of power train, ie, big block original or small block old style. Furthermore, the only engine that is on the list (as of today) is the Chevrolet LS3; no Ford product is qualified yet, although you can't imagine a Coyote is too far away. Factory Five will probably sell all the 32 Fords they are allowed to make.

Hmm, at Real1's asking price, the buyer is buying the cobra story, not the car. Good Luck With Story.

I'll take the counterpoint to your post.

The President of the Manhattan Nissan Leaf Owners Association may actually have a point.

If I may interpret his comment...

I think what he's trying to say is that anyone paying $230,000 for Evan's CSX4206 is likely buying into the fact that he or she will own an original, genuine, authentic, Shelby Cobra made by Carroll Shelby and Shelby American. If a buyer isn't "buying the story" and just likes or has heard the Shelby name before, thus a "Kirkham with a plaque" would suffice, then they would or should pay the typical alloy CSX selling price of $150,000-$200,000. Say like Vern's alloy CSX4227.

Wow - REAL1 has left the building and we can still fill up a 6 page thead in his behalf without a single remark from him. That's impressive.

That seems to be the way the world works today. Create controversy or be controversial, then people will talk about you, oh, and your car too.

Yep, most of us got it, that was Evan's shtick and he has priced it accordingly, for people with stupid money.
