Yes, the 05 and 06 are closer to the original.  But man, that 2022 is really something to behold.  But then again, as I have said in the past, maybe the carbon fiber GT will be a pile of dust in 50 years whereas the 05 and 06 plus the 60s originals will still be around.  Who knows?  I am not an expert on carbon fiber.  Just throwing that out there for those in the know the chime in.

As long as you don't crash hard or take a hammer to the frame, a carbon bike can theoretically last forever. In fact, steel and aluminum last only so long before the metal fatigues and can no longer be used safely, but carbon remains stable indefinitely.

I believe that Steve Volk of the Shelby American Collection has one of these on order.  I would assume he will display it at the Collection at some point in time in the future.
