**AC Cobra Continuation 2000 – Classic Muscle Meets Modern Precision** Experience the roar of the 2000‑model AC Cobra Continuation, a revival of the legendary AC Empresa’s V‑8 beast. Though it lives in a niche that attracts collectors and performance enthusiasts, its price range remains accessible compared to the limited‑edition armored spreads. The AC Cobra Continuation price varies by condition, mileage, and market, and an informed buyer can determine the true value by factoring in depreciation, specs, and comparative benchmarks. --- ### Key Specifications (2000 AC Cobra Continuation)

--- ### Depreciation Insight So, how much will a 2000 AC Cobra Continuation lose over time?

• Typically, a newly‑built continuation loses 15‑20% of its value in the first year of ownership.
• Between years two to five, the drop stabilizes to roughly 5‑8% per year, especially for well‑maintained, low‑kilometer examples.
• After five years, depreciation tapers to 3‑5% annually; however, due to the model’s limited production and increasing desirability among collectors, many vehicles actually hold or even grow in value after the 10‑year mark.
• Keep in mind that the AC Cobra Continuation depreciation curve is far less steep than that of a mass‑produced muscle car. This is largely because production runs are limited to a few hundred units, and conditions such as mileage, originality, and provenance heavily influence resale value.

--- ### Comparison Context If you’re weighing the 2000 AC Cobra Continuation against other performance cars, some quick benchmarks help to clarify.

• **Ford Mustang Mach I (2000)** – $45,000 to $80,000 used, roughly 7.5‑12% of original MSRP after five years.
• **Chevrolet Camaro SS (2000)** – $35,000 to $70,000 used, with a depreciation curve similar to the Mustang.
• **Acura NSX (1998‑2006)** – Used cars at $60,000 to $140,000; the NSX holds value better due to hybrid technology and four‑wheel drive.
• **Audi S4 (2000‑2004)** – Used cars range $40,000 to $75,000; the S4 offers a lighter weight and sport‑tuned chassis.

While the AC Cobra Continuation remains more expensive upon initial purchase than its contemporaries, its unique heritage and limited production create a stronger aftermarket grip, especially in the high‑performance segment of used cars. --- ### Market Position Statement
