What will our GT's be worth in 2047? Of course, no one knows, but check out ebay auction # 320116881245 for a pristine 50k miles Shelby Mustang GT500. It just sold for $175,000.

I'm sure we (or our estates) would gladly take that same percentage increase on our cars. I believe that would be about $3 million.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm ... and yet I seem to remember a couple of Forum members scoffing at someone who suggested only a few months ago that a pristine, unmolested GT could be worth the paltry sum (by comparison) of $500K in about twenty years. (And, shoot! That's only about 3 times "sticker"!):wink

My scientific guess is 20x todays inflation adjusted value.

The best comp is the 1960s Mercedes Gullwing, which actuallly was a retrospective of the LeMans winning SLR, 1600 made; using a sedan engine and some hot parts like mech FI, space frame, etc

They sold new for like $5k and in the 70s for like $10k, in the late 80s bubble $1million and today $500k-2M.

The best way to tell value on our GT's in 40 years is to contact Bonys Wife and my Wifes boyfriends and ask them. Bony and I will be with Chip looking down and haunting every move made! TGH

Somebody on the board should do that. That would be the ultimate burial, GT as a coffin...
