[QUOTE="OaktownACE, post: 13193324, member: 147830"] I read your post and your logic appears flawed because of a couple reasons. First you got a heavily discounted car and are comparing a residual percentage based on a heavily discounted price which is going to skew the statistics. Second, if indeed, Ford stops using the Shelby name it will help keep the residual values up and will likely be ahead of your orange car when you make an apples to apples comparison (if you use msrp for your orange car then it's 57% residual at 20k). Ford used the Shelby name to attract more customers. For me it worked because I never would be buying a mustang if it wasn't a Shelby because a Shelby has always been a dream car. Without the Shelby name I'd be buying a restored '67-68 Mustang, not a new 68k car. [/QUOTE]
