How rare is a Shelby Really?

[Snoopy49]

I can't tell you the last time we sold a "specialty car" in the state of Iowa.

Now you had me curious so I had to look. We sold our first GT350 in December of 2015 to a gentleman 15 minutes away from us. Since then we sold them to Texas, California, Illinois, Montana, Massachusettes, Michigan and Florida.

Did you find a buyer for your 2021?

We did yes.

I love reading non shelby owners tell me how not rare a car is..

I'm pretty sure Zach's point was to illustrate how prolific GT500 sales were in the region relative to other trims. I'm sort of surprised, actually.

As for rarity, my '2007 GT500 was 1-of-65 as built. My lowly, peasant '15 GT/PP has been Marti-documented as 1-of-1. Not hard to see which is rarer. Not that it matters to me in the slightest (other than it being an interesting stat as a car geek), but it might to someone down the road.

We did yes.

When do you expect to know about '22 allocations?

It will be a ways off before we know. I'm sure we'll have at a minimum 3 total allocations for 2022 MY though.

I think some of this is a little bit of a reporting outlier, because of the "double production" of both GT350 and GT500. If we were in Texas, I'm sure there's a lot more GTs and other trims running around. I will say I am glad to see you use yours as intended and put it through its paces.

I've paid attention to some of your information and its been fun to watch!

^this, meaningless when the 350 is added to the numbers. 1 of 1 gt.. must be that special order floor mat

"..special order floor mat,"

Too funny, Steve. :-)
