I'm sick of people trying to capitalize on John's death, with everything from his autograph on eBay to people trying to get outrageous sums of money for the car. Especially articles saying the value of the DeLorean is "skyrocketing" and what a great "investment" it would be. Honestly, I could care less if my car gains value or loses it, because I never plan on selling it. I plan on driving it as long as I can, and honestly I look forward to refurbishing it again 10 or 15 years down the road once it has a little more wear and tear on it, which is inevitable for a daily driver. As the value increases, more and more car collectors will buy the cars to stash in a corner of their garage, hoping to sell the D in a few years for a quick profit. The cars will probably sit neglected, with the usual problems we are familiar with forming. I would rather see the cars have a reasonable price, so the people who love them and intend on driving them can afford to do so. As the value goes up, so will insurance, and I am sure parts probably will over the course of time as well. Also, a random question, I noticed DMCH's car is $37,500 now. Was this raised from $35,000 before or after JZD's death? Just my $.02 on the whole "value" situation. -Patrick C. 1880 On Mar 30, 2005, at 7:09 PM, James Espey wrote: > > > Two weeks ago: http://tinyurl.com/3sn5s > > Last week: http://tinyurl.com/5dp75 > > This week: http://tinyurl.com/6djf2 > > Interesting...I've asked the seller why the price increase.
