Most of the loss lands early: the Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 sheds about 8% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $94,950 it falls to around $59,058 by year five — a five-year loss near $35,892, about $19.67 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 4, a lightly-used Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 bought at 4 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
