Values are strong because they are rare, you cannot buy them here without a long winded import process so supply is very restricted.
This will all change soon.
In fairness S197 values might hold as the S550 design is not to everyone's taste as the new car is a far more modernised less so American muscle car with a lot more sports car and euro car traits rather than typical American Muscle.
The S197 is very retro and even though the S550 is superior in everyday except for drag racing if S197 still has some demand and with low numbers values could hold.
I am going to Ford tomorrow to decide my spec make it an official order.
Right now magnetic and ebony is my choice but the dealership has a new Mondeo in Magnetic for me to view amongst cars in the other colours so I can see the colours in fresh.
I want a dark grey and it's hard to tell from pics online the difference between magnetic, silver and guard colours. But if I go ahead and I think I will then I will be tuning it up power wise but staying NA, £2500 should see near 500 horses and then after a year ownership either fit charger kit or trade in against a Shelby as those are now coming to uk as well, that will have 750BHP standard.
