Not an answer, but I've thought the same thing! Valles Marineris is usually described as being a rift valley caused by the crust splitting. But for the most part it is very straight - with parallel straight valleys - and resembles a deep "scratch" as if some body or bodies have hit it at a very oblique angle, ploughed a furrow, before either leaving Mars or breaking up.
Is this possible?
