with the best of the "common" McQueen Monacos (in near mint condition) selling above the $8,000 mark, seems to me that NOS (or very near NOS) with original box, hang tag, catalog, history and other goodies is worth the extra $1,500. This same package sold for $9,100 in February 2006, on ebay.

this pricing looks reasonable, as we ask ourselves, "if you want one of these, and didn't buy this one, where will you find the next one?"
