2008 Shelby GT500 with 600 miles

[dillon14]

I only know values of the early muscle cars. This Shelby GT500 has the manual transmission with only 450 miles. 60 miles, 450 miles or 6,000 miles. Does it actually matter?
Thoughts?
Thanks Al in Maine

Yes…but. I don’t think there’s a big difference between 60 and 600. I’d say sub-1000 and sub-10000 are kind of the mental bookmarks. I think storage and condition are the bigger value changers. If it was kept in a climate controlled environment, run occasionally and kept free of mold/mildew, mice and corrosion, that’s the biggest value adder. I keep seeing these no-mile cars pop up out of rural pole barns with 1/2” of dust and paw prints all over them and while I know some people get excited about that, it makes me want to run away. I’d much rather have a 50k mile car maintained by an OCD fanatic than a 50 mile car that was parked in a shed 20 years ago. JMO

The car has been stored inside. Outstanding condition. Draining tank, changing fuel pump, changing oil and filter.
Actually has 450 miles.

I'm sure you have looked online, I saw a low mile one for $68K, 250 miles.

I might also suggest you try Mood @ Chicago Motorcars, he's a longtime friend and I think he'd give his thoughts on price.

Look at this 2018 GT 350 they are selling:

Not the most desirable of that gen (500 horse, iron block, nose heavy.)
$58/$65k is probably right.

Great cars and 07-09 the best looking body imo. I've had 4 of these, currently a white/blue one with 3800 miles. They will kick the guts out of old musclecars i've owned including the Stage 1 cars, A12 Road Runner or Copo Camaro. And thats with the a/c on. A canned plug in tune with $200 pulley and a cold air makes them a fun driver

I know a guy with a low low mile '08 Shelby. He bought the car new. When the car was a year old he started turning it into a drag car because it wasn't fast enough......
