New York City's bodegas, the pedestrian-friendly, mom-and-pop answer to convenience stores, sell staples like snacks, basic groceries, and household supplies. Most are open 24 hours a day, and there are more than 10,000 of them spread between the Big Apple's five boroughs. Many have cats to keep stores free of mice and other pests, despite the fact that these feline proprietors are probably illegal.

In the past couple of years, Amazon has opened about 25 Amazon Go convenience stores in Chicago, New York, San Francisco, and Seattle. The unique part: You don't check out. Customers simply scan a QR code that connects to their Amazon account upon entering, then grab whatever they need and go. Their account is charged automatically, thanks to a robust network of cameras and sensors.

This is one of the first 50 examples of the Mustang Boss 429 that Ford built largely by hand for its most important dealers. Barrett-Jackson noted it’s fitted with the rare, 375bhp 820-S NASCAR engine and a specific suspension, among other equipment that helps it stand out from later cars. It sold for $605,000 in 2007, which represents approximately $748,000 today. In hindsight, it was a terrible investment. RM Sotheby’s sold the same car for $275,000 in 2013.

Shelby made 34 race-prepared GT350 Rs for 1965 so it’s one of the most sought-after Mustang variants and also one of the most expensive ones. It’s considered by many collectors to be the holy grail. Wearing chassis number 5R096, this car spent years winning races across Canada before moving to the United States and receiving a full restoration. It ultimately ended up in the hands of a collector in Switzerland. Its history is well documented and full of first-place finishes and it’s in excellent condition so it sold for $720,000 at an RM Sotheby’s auction in 2018.

The Lone Star State is awfully fond of convenience stores, according to the Association for Convenience and Petroleum Retailing, with nearly 16,000 of them sprinkled across Texas. California is a distant second with close to 12,000; Florida is third with nearly 10,000.

Lose a little on every deal, and make up for it with high volume.

69 70 fastback Mustangs are still the best looking cars Ford ever made.
