Market commentary
Mecum has peddled this Duesenberg since 2022 and the bids have gone down from $1.1 million to this moderate result on 2024. It is a better car than its over-exposed auction history infers although aged and over-exposed and has added only ten miles to its odometer since 2022. It deserves a good home and should have been mercifully bestowed upon a bidder here who will appreciate it even at this moderate price. It needs to go away, Dana.
