I have no idea on the demand, but a very good friend of mine owns both, a new 500 and an old one. He was stationed in Italy for four years and brought one home.
I picked it up for him in Norfolk brought it up to Maryland in late 2006 on a trailer. The movie "Cars" was still popular and the amount of waves per mile driving back was amazing.
"Mommy, look! Luigi"!!!
They love them both. A pic from earlier this year at a local car show. My 356 is on the left.
