Awww, come on now... isn't it worth it, when the teenager behind the counter looks up with a vacant expression when you say....

"Mercedes"

And then gives you a pleading, uncomprehending look like some trapped animal when you say....

"1985"

It makes MY day (x2 if I get to say DIESEL too).

Or, in the words of fellow Canuck lister Clacker, "It's probably the first time the kid has realized there is actually something on the list, between Lincoln and Merkur...."
