I've seen the Roush 427R with only 435hp going for around $50K at some dealers. Just something to consider.

The OP was claiming $30,000 for a 3 year old GT500 with only 2,000 on the clock......I think that's really bad depreciation on a "collector car" personally.
I'm sure the Camaro will depreciate as well.



True, and how is by the price range of Chevy VS Ford performance.
Ford fanatics complained you can't pit a Mustang GT up against a 2010 SS because it was obviously lacking.
So they pit it against a GT500 , which as tested was nearly $20,000 more. It's an unfair comparison......yet close results.
If anything you should compare PRICE for performance. That's where the KR vs the Z06 came into play.

Can't quite compare an $86,000 Mustang to a ~$32,000 Camaro SS.
2011 will be a good year to pit the regular pony cars up against each other once again.
Ford finally got some good powerplants for their GT and base Mustangs.
half the sticker price? the msrp on a 2007-08 GT500 is not $86000, its $41,000. the GT500KR is $86,000. the kr is the one more for collectors IMO. so therefore I'd say that the gt500 does hold its value pretty good and its not a comparison of an $86,000 car to a $32,000 car.

on another note, i am really excited to see the new pony cars get put up against eachother
