"When we did a good Mercury, it breaks the bank,” said Gary Bennett, vice president of consignment for Barrett-Jackson. “They’re a unique brand with a loyal following.”
Bennett said Cougars, XR7s, Comets, Marauders, and of course, the lead sleds of the late 1940s à la Dean draw interest on the auction circuit.
“I think that the fact they’re going to discontinue, it’s going to create a new awareness,” Bennett said.

Right on, bro'. :up:

I can promise you right now that the value of Marauders will continue to decline as long as I own one. It's a fact. All my life, anything I've owned was worth next to nothing to anybody else, until I sold it for next to nothing, then the prices would shoot up. I could crash the world's gold market tomorrow by just buying a few Krugerrands today. I kid you not.
