It's doubtful that that will ever be a classic/collector car. Just sayin'.

Although, I'm sure it's a fun car to drive.

I've often wondered what will happen to the entire classic/collector car industry in say 50 years. Will a whole new generation take over the classic enthusiast role? Will anything prior to the 80's be collectable, except for possibly some of the expensive exotics?

Hmmmm...let me play devils advocate - here's, I believe, the same car for $28,000, reduced to $26K and then to $25.5 - it may have sold at that price.

2004 Mustang Cobra Terminator For Sale (Screaming Yellow Convertible) - SVTPerformance

My guess is that you paid much more - yes, only 161 made - but, used price dropped significantly already - plus the outlook doesn't seem bright for a price increase in our lifetimes - there are ton of 'special' limited production mustangs out there - I doubt that any of them will be truly collectible, meaning (to me) that the price will increase over time.

I'm so glad you enlightened me on your great knowledge of Mustangs! Thanks!!!
