S550 values to increase?

[JudSam]

Not at all. Had one that was fi’d, you? Had one that wasn’t, you? Have an R, you? As for your point, just another hater. Is what it is. Have a vert Gt as well. You’re not the first nor will be the last with this. It’s as predictable as the sun coming up. You be you.

I have not posted anything that was not true, and easily verifiable with a simple Google search. Anyway, I get it, a lot of individual and business have purchased GT350s as investments, and they don’t want a tarnished image of their investments. It’s all good.

You literally exist here just to shit on the Voodoo. Blow one at some point? Is it in the room with you right now?

“Shit” on it? It was stating facts. The sensitivity around the Voodoo is understandable. A lot of businesses and individuals buy their GT350s as investments. However, it is what it is. Sorry. But not really sorry.

It was stating facts

And what facts are those? Do you have factual failure rates for the Voodoo showing that the failure rate is substantially higher than a coyote? No, you don’t, nobody does unless you work for Ford. The 6.2L from GM is what I would define as unreliable considering GM is replacing virtually all of them. The Voodoo replacement rate is far far far less than that, I will guarantee you that. Again, look at the number of people on this site alone that have high mileage Voodoo’s without issue, boosted Voodoo’s without issue, etc. You have not stated any facts other than the Voodoo vibrates, which everyone already knows. And everyone also knows it makes it more susceptible to failure, but that does not mean it will actually fail. Give it a rest already.

Oh, and “a lot of businesses and people” did NOT buy GT350’s as an investment. Did some? Sure, those are more the 2015 R’s, the Heritage R’s and maybe some Base R’s. I’d be surprised if many bought non-R GT350’s as investments. Garage queens? Yeah probably, but that does not necessarily mean as an “investment”. Again, don’t make foolish statements without actual facts showing the “numerous” GT350’s purchased as investments.

Thanks for making my point. You’re a google search educated knowledgeable individual. Best of luck with that. Aka, the internet parrot with ZERO personal experience. Lmao

Honest question. How do you make a statement and an assertion then state, are they apples to apples I don’t know. That’s basically stating I’m pulling … out of my … . That’s all well in good, but it’s better to say…… ooohhhh, …. it,,, not worth it….

I'm not familiar with the GT350 trims and packages, but there have been a half dozen up for auction on various sites in the past few weeks and all sold for considerably less than I've seen other GT350s sell just a few months ago. Are they apples to apples cars? I dunno. Seems like a trend to me tho. Or maybe they're just following the enthusiast and/or toy car market in general, which is trending down.

S550s are down across the board. GT350s have been selling for above original MSRP for most of the last 9 months I've paid attention to them, and i used them as a bell weather.

However, looking out 10 years, i do think the S550 will be the more desirable modern Mustang.

This is a car forum, not a scientific research paper. I've posted results from at least 3 auctions of a model i consider the bell weather of the s550 generation and my experience informally tracking prices over much of the last 9 months. I don't know why that offends you.

Newly listed 2019 R. One owner car per the Carfax, super low miles. Actually a little lower price than I saw in the fall for similar R’s but still holding value well.

I get a kick out of people today and if someone disagrees with them they try to throw out a label. Not offended at all, simply questioned you’re methodology. That said, if you or anybody else wants to know where current market values are on these cars, simply look at what the dealers that regularly move these cars are willing to bid to and pay for these cars on public auction sites. I’m referring to the more desireable units out there. Not the units with multiple owners, higher miles, an issue or two here and there. It is what it is.

Beyond curiosity and consideration, does it really matter what anyone will pay for something important to you? Life’s too short to argue and miss out on fun stuff. Go drive your car and let the next person worry about how much it’s worth.

New data point: 2017 Base R price w/ delivery miles fails to sell for a second time in four months.

Dealers heads are still in the clouds.

Actually a good price for a delivery mile R. Considering 2019-2020 R’s with a couple thousand miles or less are going $90-$95k around here.

Hello; my neighbor has been parking a nice Harley in his front yard for a friend. The bike is for sale. I do not have any insight about the price or value. The neighbor and I live on the second busiest Hwy in the county so lots of traffic.
He has parked jeeps, other bikes and such in the yard several times before. In the past I would see numbers of folks stopping to check out the vehicles. He would get lots of calls.
My point is in the month or two the bike has been set out I have not seen people stopping. I am not out all the time so such means little. Thing is no calls either. The Harley is not junk and this is Harley country.
So, what does this prove?? Nothing actually. It is just an observation that may not reflect the economy.

That R isn’t really a reference or data point. Reality is those wanting a base R is a very very small audience. If that was a regular R that was a 19 or especially a 20, that car would have been almost six figures if not six figures. That particular seller sells some amazing vehicles and has a stellar reputation. The idea that a particular car that doesn’t sell or reach a reserve on a particular week somehow is a market reset is pretty funny actually.

Just given how few Base R’s there are and the equally small buyer pool there is for them, I’d be curious what actual market is on them. I saw one listed at a somewhat local Ford dealer about a year ago and they had no clue what they actually had when I called them about it.
