None of them will be collectable. They never were collectable. Some people just wanted to believe they would be.

Getting back to the topic at hand :

The 2006 converted GT-H is the one that started it all again Ford, Shelby and Herzt once again collaborated and look where it's come to today. 

Those were the only SHELBY's in 2006.

Everything else followed starting in 2007 with the Shelby GT.  And of course, SVT followed with a lot of SHELBY GT500s out there that are not converted by Shelby American.

Those 2006 GTHs followed the same path as the original 1965 GT350s.

Ford directly to Shelby American were they recieved upgrades, Shelby badging, C. S.M.s ( yes C.S.M.s something that disappeared in 1967 ) and most importantly their Hertz and Shelby heritage.

Long live the black and gold  !

It was in a time-out.

Nothing wrong with a spirited discussion.

You just need to accept that there are differing opinions and not take every bump in the road personally.

With all due respect for people who love these new cars I think it's a very flat slope going forward. There is not one new Mustang Shelby type car I think will rise in value.
Particularly if you adjust for inflation or opportunity cost.

Opportunity cost is a true economic variable but I guess it can be overlooked in the enthusiast community but NOT under the circumstances of a thread like this.

Sorry.

Any series Shelby 1000 due to how few have been produced and how few ever are available or sale.  Plus with all that HP and being the last car series that CS had input, I believe it will retain its value or better as we go through the continuing horsepower wars.   8)

Give it enough time, and individuals building and wadding them up, and anything can go up in value.  Look at the fox body mustangs, they are now on the rise.  I don't feel these cars will ever have the increase of the original Shelbys, but I plan on hanging on to my 1 of 63 07 GT500, and wouldn't complain if the value goes up at some point.
07 White GT500 Convertible: 1 of 63 with Tungsten rocker stripes.  Numerous mods.

FFR3490: Yellow with black stripes
