Captain: I understand the premise of your statements. However the $95,000 figure for a glass CSX included a full boat aluminum block 427SO or original 427SO with all the bells and whistles.
I believe the cost of a glass CSX roller now is around $55K and $60K with paint. Although subcontracting CAV to build the chasis to spec and up to Shelby standards, which I'm sure CAV is capable of since they make a very nice GT40 which is sold through some Shelby dealers now might drop the price point to around $50K for a roller (I'm guessing non-painted) it won't affect the resale value of the original CSX 4000 (wow! an appropriate use of the word "original when referring to a CSX 4000. See its happening already!
) that much. This may be especially true with cars with special add ons or details.
But may I suggest this. If SAI is successful in droping its roller price by $5000, might SPF and others be forced to drop their prices alittle to keep their products attractive as an alternative? If so what happens to the resale value of all those original SPFs???
Boy this could end up creating a BIG pigeon sandwich right across the board for all current glass car owners, regardless of make, and everyone may end up having to take a bite.
Boy, just think. If that happens the bird droppings are really gonna start piling up around here!
Al u min i um cars are a different kettle of fish and may even become more desirable and valuable.
Just think'n out loud.
