Mechanicals are pretty much the same as a fully optioned 760. I would stay away from the early V-6 powered ones and get a later turbo-4 if buying a 780.

Body and interior parts are almost all unique to the 780 and hard to get if you need anything. The body uses the finest vintage Italian steel and assembly, so watch out for rust!

Only consider an absolutely mint example from a body and interior point of view. It could make a very interesting and exclusive vehicle to own and drive.
