well - if someone is going to post a car and driver mention, here is an autoweek mention. in the letters section in reference to "the market" section of a previous issue: "The April 30 DeLorean was of particular interest since I too own a 1982 DeLorean DMC-12. Keith Martin touched on an interesting point, anticipating letters from owners who feel that their cars are worth more than the marginally maintained subject in the auction. My feeling and perspective is that the value of any collector car (my DeLorean included) is zero. Let's face it: At the end of the day, do we really need an artifact from a bygone era? What determines the "worth" of these cars is the value the purchaser places on it and how that relates to him or her. I bought my DeLorean for the fun of it, something to have and share with others. If I begin to take it too seriously, then it defeats the whole purpose. Cars are supposed to be fun; that's why I bought my DeLorean and why I read AutoWeek." - Steve Deiters, Cincinnati kinda long, i know, but i think it's a great letter. anyone on the list write it? illyana -- "What's the point in having a Honda if you can't show it off?" - Superintendant Chalmers [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
