It is simply NOT generational.
Packard among other high prestige and or performance level cars are not for everyone. Chevies and Fords are for everyone. Chevies and Fords were ALWAYS for everyone and everyone has owned at least one.

Future generations will always produce at least as many collectors as there ever was even when the cars were new in their own time. Such collectors that have enuf intellegence to recognize an exquisite car from the run-of the mill.

Let me put it another way:
I find it unfortunate, for modern times, that PMCC used the "Aks the man who owns one" moto. Better to have used "Aks the man who wants something DIFFERENT" There will ALWAYS be men for many generations to come that will want something different and can RECOGNIZE it!!!!

Or to put it another way:
Through out history and i'm sure the future only about 2% of the worlds population can think, 3% think they can think and the other 95% would rather die than to think. Plenty of Packards extant i'm sure to go around for the first 5% for many generations to come.
