Ernie:

Just a point of cliarifcation, Enzo Ferrari died in 1988. A year and a half later collector car prices were at the proverbial dot.com stock levels of 2,000. The biggest bubble in automotive collector history. The price of Ferrari's, and everything else automotive for that matter, dropped like a rock after 1990.

The relationship between Ferrari's values skyrocketing and falling was a direct result of the market place, not necessarily Enzo's death. The so-called "death effect" on a particular Marque is very hard to predict. Personally, I think Carroll is going to live to 130, so the point may be moot.
