I dunno ... I've seen a few vintage 240's sell for decent money in the past 18 months. This has to be the best I've ever seen of any 240. Factor in the fact that it's a southern car, so it's never seen salt, appears to have sat in a garage since new, and is in nothing short of amazing condition. If I had the money to spend, I would buy this in a heartbeat. There was a super low mileage 86 or 87 in philly that amazed me, but this one takes the cake.

Elderly owned european cars in the south are probably the best you can get. No rust, low miles, and well maintained. When I lived in Tampa, I looked at an 88 bmw 535i with 50k that was in nothing short of amazing condition, similar to this. It sold for $8k. I've seen pristine condition early 80's mbz w123 diesels in amazing shape with little to miles on it. Typically those sold at a minimum of $6-7k. There's been an 85 bmw 735i with the callaway turbo in New Jersey that keeps showing up on eBay, it has less than 4k miles on it and never meets the reserve.
