The 1995 Cobra R would cost $63,000 today in inflation adjusted money

[1995COBRA-R]

The $38,000 MSRP for a Cobra R (including shipping and $2100 gas guzzler tax) is the equivalent of around $63,000 today, or about $4000 north of a 2019 Shelby GT350.

I have one that I bought used with 3000 miles for less than $38K (I did offer MSRP for one in 1995--the dealer refused my offer).

EXACTLY why I have said many many many times, cars are enjoyment, not investments (usually, we have exceptions). If I wanted only $, I would have no cars, and a nice portfolio. Cars bring me and my family much happiness, so be it.

I 100% agree. The stock market is up 50% since President Trump was elected. Not political but simple facts.

I am getting a little older so I am drawing a line in the sand for no more than three cool cars at one time.

I almost promise to this.

With cars you have to factor in the value of fun. If you take that into consideration, then you will typically be ok. If you own a Ford GT...you will also be more than ok
