I'm not selling mine either, for many of the reasons stated. But the thread topic is whether the values will go up now that production is over. I think not...... not anytime soon.I loved both my 12/13 B302s... loved the 13 better cause it was more refined than the 12, and was a PP car. I should’ve kept it but made a mistake letting it go. I learned.
I had to part with the 12 to have the HEPR. I doregret that decision once!!! There isn’t a day that I ever look in the garage and feel I was in a better place with the B302, but it served it’s purpose, and did it well. Would I have another, hell yes!.. but I’d turn it into a track rat ride.
IIRC, Randy Pobst was nuts about the B302 and admired it a lot. That says a lot about what Ford accomplished with a live axle track car. The GT350 is just a different league altogether.
I hope I never ever have to part with my HEP R. I never intended to part with my 16R but life has a way of throwing wrenches in the cogs.
Up over MSRP? I agree with you @Tomster not anytime soon.I'm not selling mine either, for many of the reasons stated. But the thread topic is whether the values will go up now that production is over. I think not...... not anytime soon.
I think the fact that you plan to keep yours appeals to the value inherent in your cars...I'm not selling mine either, for many of the reasons stated. But the thread topic is whether the values will go up now that production is over. I think not...... not anytime soon.
Fred, that was always the plan. The car strikes a chord. At the end of the day it is a mustang, just like the CFTP. They won't be collectors anytime soon. I bought them to drive and enjoy them. That is the end of the story really.I think the fact that you plan to keep yours appeals to the value inherent in your cars...
It is what it is. You, like me, bought them to drive. Billy Johnson said to me as we went around the track "these are fun cars". He's right. But that doesn't make it a collector..... at least not anytime soon.Up over MSRP? I agree with you @Tomster not anytime soon.
However, may I add a wrinkle? Will we see used 350R prices start to keep up in the shorter term? Like that 2016 Electronics pack on BaT this week with a very strong showing from an audience that is not traditionally knowing for ponying up (pun intended) the big bucks for GT350s?
I guess what I'm asking, in your opinion is do you think the market has hit bottom?
I would not have expected for at least another couple two-tree years..... but then again one strong showing does not make a trend so time will tell and until then, we shall debate!
Ummmmmmmmm... ok.Fred, that was always the plan. The car strikes a chord. At the end of the day it is a mustang, just like the CFTP. They won't be collectors anytime soon. I bought them to drive and enjoy them. That is the end of the story really.
Ain’t that the truth!Time will tell. See ya all in about 5 years, 10 years, and 20.
Just a few months ago my 2015 Shelby GT350 Track Pack Car hammered for ~$86,000 at auction and only a few years earlier (2017) my 2012 Boss 302 Laguna Seca PP car hammered for over $80,000 at auction therefore for those that suggest that these 2 seat 2012 Boss 302 LS and Shelby GT350 Model Mustangs are not collectible it is obvious that they have no idea.Ummmmmmmmm... ok.
Due to the low volume of 2015 MY cars, and being the 1st year, IMO they are not representative of what the future values of 2016 MY and on will be.Just a few months ago my 2015 Shelby GT350 Track Pack Car hammered for ~$86,000 at auction and only a few years earlier (2017) my 2012 Boss 302 Laguna Seca PP car hammered for over $80,000 at auction therefore for those that suggest that these 2 seat 2012 Boss 302 LS and Shelby GT350 Model Mustangs are not collectible it is obvious that they have no idea.
I agree but may I interject that a rising tide raises all ships. As MY15 values rise, so will values of other years/versions (albeit not at the same rate, of course).Due to the low volume of 2015 MY cars, and being the 1st year, IMO they are not representative of what the future values of 2016 MY and on will be.
That is awesome. I love it. I have not felt that way about a car in a long time (life, marriage, kids happen). Stories like yours have really drawn me into the mistique of the 350. Thank you for sharing. I can frickin’ wait to get mine out on the road as it’s presently 900 miles away at the dealer.... hoping to get it up here in the next 10-14 days.Many years ago a friend of mine said that I was so tight with my money that I squeak when I walk. (I prefer to use the word frugal.) There was no other car being sold at that time I would have spent the same money on as I did for my GT350. One of the main reasons that I purchased my car, in addition to the obvious, was I hoped that the car would not depreciate as quickly as most cars do. Having owned the car three years, the value of the car has become less important as I’ve come to appreciate it more with every drive. I can honestly say that if somebody were to offer me MSRP I would turn them down.
