Understanding Ford Mustang Depreciation
Classic cars behave differently than everyday vehicles, yet depreciation remains a key factor in deciding how much to bid. A Ford Mustang typically loses 15‑20 % of its value in the first year after a sale, with a slightly slower rate thereafter. Exact numbers fluctuate; a well–documented 1968 Mustang in excellent condition might keep 68–71 % of its first‑sale price after three years.
Producers estimate annual depreciation for the 1968 model at about 8–10 % per year after the first two years, assuming minimal wear. In quick terms: Year 0 → 15 % drop Year 1‑2 → 10 % drop per year Beyond year 3 (steady state) → 5‑7 % decline annually
