I watched a friend of mine bid and pay for a Shelby GT 500 drop top, and I thought he was freakin' insane to pay what he paid for that car. But, you are correct, in that now because of these auctions that every Mom and Pop that has one sittin' in their barn thinks it's worth a fortune.

I have to agree this is one great car show.The real market value of a 2007 Shelbygt500 is around $36,000.00.Just tell your friend to drive and enjoy his Shelby!
