[DML] Re: Concours- was Blue Book Value

["gullwingmag" <gullwing-magazine@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Having a Concours winner and a custom (Yellow) DeLorean has given me 
an interesting perspective on this.  

I have been given seriously higher offers for my custom D than I 
probably would ever get for my Concours D.  But yet I still think 
that the Concours cars "help" set the pricing for the marque.  I know 
of Concours cars that have been "upgraded" and still sold for a 
premium price because of their Concours status.  

That said, I still cant imagine paying 60K + for a refurb west coast 
car, but they do sell them.
