Did the Carbon Editions really double in value since I sold mine!?

Maybe in 20 years if it still has 500km on it!

At that price, it'll sit there for a long while.

SSB Carbon #35 checking-in again - Still located in Virginia. Just ticked over 3K miles and driving it more this year. I haven't done any head work, yet, since I was on the fence about selling it.

Not crazy guys! It's happening. One sold here in Toronto at a auction 2 weeks ago for $101,000 CAD that's about $75k US.

SSB427

Interesting,how many miles on it?

SpartaGus

Only had 900 miles on it.

SSB427

Wow,my SSB has 1500 miles on it guess its holding its value pretty well too!

Poor cars, I drive mine every chance I get, I bought in december 2016 with 32k miles I think and now I am at 46k.

Its at the dealer right now for cats.

I have a few cars that I drive including my 427 drag car that yanks the front wheels 3 feet in the air and carries them out past the 60 foot mark, just can't get that feeling on the street!!! my carbon is a sweet piece of machinery,and I do take it out on sunny days and wind it through the gears and cruise with it when I feel like it and get many compliments and attention when I do.... To each their own I guess.....

Just picked up #224 I/O with 24,000 miles on it. Was a deal I couldn't pass up. Bought it the day after the dealer dropped the price $6000. Can't believe original window sticker was $113,000! I love this car and have wanted one for almost 5 years!

Welcome!!

if you aren't aware, please check the heads - most of the intake guides on mine were out at 12,000 miles.

I am curious what options you had to drive the price to $113K. Can you post a pic of the window sticker?

scramblerman

Thanks! The car does have a H/C/I/E on it. Dealer trying, so they say, to get a hold of the last owner to ask him for the info on the mods and to see if he has the stock parts. I will be looking into the heads over winter here in Illinois. That is number 1 on my list to investigate

Yea I was surprised to on the MSRP on the car itself also. I had always thought that they were just over $100k. Here is a picture.

Congrats! Definitely get the heads checked previous owner had that car on the track at least once. I almost bought this car you got a great price for it.

scramblerman

Thank you very much
Yea I was told that he tracked from the dealer. I am ok with that as I want to get back into auto-x.

Yea, right now the heads are an unknown and must be known.

I was watching that car and the 2 other ones on carguru's for a while now. As soon as I seen them drop that price, me and the wife had to make it work. Still can't believe I got all that car for that price. Thanks again

I see you have the nav radio, but that only accounts for 1,800.. Still scratching my head where the other 10K is going. I will compare mine to yours and see what's different, it's bugging me now.

scramblerman

Interesting, let me know what you find out
