That's a lot of money, but because of the track pack.and ceramic brakes. Without these options it's understandable.

Ridiculous.

Thats nuts. At that price point you can get a new 911 GTS, or lighty used McLaren or Audi R8 V10.

1/3 the price of a GTD

Key words, USED. Lightly or not. Also, I doubt it would be a 2026 or even a MY25~24 at that price. Need to be reasonable and real with these comparisons. Yes, it is indeed a lot of money, but in truth, everything has gone up in price.

That's 33k more than my 2027 Corvette GSX that comes with ceramic brakes standard.
Ouch.

And the GSX should destroy this thing on the street and drag strip.

The above is a quick search. 8k+ miles and 3 years old. 183k. Is this reasonable? Other vehicles were 2017~2018 with 130k+ price tags.

Is this car so much better built that you would pay 12K+ more, 8k+ miles, and 3 years old?

To add: I will also say that yes, they want a lot of money for the DHSC. But the same could be said when the 2020 CFTP GT500 arrived on the scene. With tech and other materials going up in price, these vehicles are indeed becoming very expensive and nearly out of reach for some. At least Ford does still have the model they used to have a Mustang for everyone who may want to purchase. It just may not be the one you REALLY want, but there is still a model for you.

I wouldn't take a spyder on the track. But yes, Id rather own those other cars. 3 years isn’t a big deal to me at all. Condition matters much more than age in that class of cars. Besides, I can guarantee that Audi will still be worth more when that DHSC is 3 years old.

 

[BuckeyeBOSS]

Obviously personal preference, but I'd pay $200k for a used Huracan before I would pay $125k for any current Mustang. I just do NOT see the value in these prices here for these cars. It's gotten out of control.

I would agree with you on this point. The Audi will be worth more, but at that price point....well actually, at that price point it does not matter the model of a vehicle, but the preference of what vehicle you would purchase.

My money is on the DH SC on the highway. Not to mention you can actually mod that thing compared to the Corvette. Spend a couple thousand on mods for both cars and the GSX will get a bus length put on it.

But now we are back to modding. In which case, the DHSC is a TERRIBLE value. Just get a GT/DH and for ~$12k you have 810+ HP, instead of spending 2x-3x on a DHSC.

Also, you can mod C8's very easily. The GSX will have a brand new motor, so yeah, it will take a little time for the aftermarket to catch up.
