    I feel slight depressed with my 2009 GT500KR I have had it for over a year and only have 251 miles. Why do I feel down about it? Because I paid $82K for it. I originally wanted a 1968 500KR, however, it was out of my reach financially. I could of easily made a nice down payment on one now if I invested correctly. Does anyone really think they will peak as an investment in the future? Is it really worth me keeping this car in a "bubble?"
    thanks for your input in advance.

    Re: Hello Everyone

    If you bought a 1969 Shelby GT 500 new in 1969 for $5500.00 and held it in a bubble until today it is worth $150,000 to $200,000. Today, a person's life span is not long enough to get that kind of return on a car that you paid $82,000 for and you will never recoup your money by selling it. SO drive it and enjoy it.:thumbsup:
