CSX/C5ZZ Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 Hertz retired four Shelby GT-Hs recently and sent them to auction. I dont think any one except Amy B. and Mr.Shelby himself would have thought that the retired rental cars would do so good. Four 2006 Black and Gold Shelby GT-H "Hertz Cars" were offered and sold on November 17th at the Manheim Auto Auction in Manheim, PA. This is a dealer only auction and not open to the general public. These prices should therefore be regarded as "dealer wholesale".Just think, these were sold to dealers expecting to resell and make a profit. These GT-H's are among the first to be retired from rental service. All had the standard Hertz equipment. Specific serial number information was not available. Sale prices appeared to be driven principally by mileage: 3936 Miles $90,000 4185 Miles $79,500 5598 Miles $72,500 5769 Miles $68,000 B) Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GT500KR Posted November 24, 2006 Report Share Posted November 24, 2006 If they are going this high then my chances of getting #362 for my son are lookig pretty grim. Get him a 2005 6 or 7 Mustang GT and let him build his own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilli bullitt Posted November 25, 2006 Report Share Posted November 25, 2006 Get him a 2005 6 or 7 Mustang GT and let him build his own. I brought him home from the hospital in #362 when he was born. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crispy23c Posted November 26, 2006 Report Share Posted November 26, 2006 I brought him home from the hospital in #362 when he was born. Remember when you did that. Oh, well...by the time he's old enough to drive it, who knows what they'll have ready for him! :blink: Remember, these are just the first few 'special' low mileage cars. You might still have a chance. If not, you can always pick up a cherry '06 GT a few years from now. You'll have a good amount of time to build him one.

GT500KR Posted November 26, 2006 Report Share Posted November 26, 2006 I brought him home from the hospital in #362 when he was born. Very cool, by the time he's old enough to drive, that baby you drove him home in would be an awesome handme down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilli bullitt Posted November 26, 2006 Report Share Posted November 26, 2006 If nothing else he will get my Bullitt some day, but I thought he could grow up help taking care of the Shelby and then whe he turns 16 we would be able to go to car shows together. Have to wait and see. Cam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No word when the local Hertz office is going to send them to auction (probably to California). Nice to see them cruising around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chilli bullitt Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 I did a search the other day on Hertz.com for Port Columbus here in Ohio and they still have them listed. When Iasked about them coming out of service there last year I was told probably around June or so. They are also an independant franchise and not run by Hertz itself.
