High mileage and bad paint? $5500? Very, very optimistic price, considering you can get your pick of the litter of very nice Sub-100k W126s in that range. Being a euro model doesn't carry enough of a premium to trounce the downsides of the car. Not a popular color as well. 2-3k car at most, IMO.

I'm not sure its possible to sell a car through this forum for a premium price. I know from experience.

We're all too cheap.

If you want to sell a car you have to ask a price that somebody will actually pay. Simple as that.
And that price wouldn't have been hit back when the economy was good.
As always, and with courtesy, I'm just sayin'...........

I would want someone to tell me if I priced something ridiculously high. A few instances its been the opposite, and made my day.

Again, if you're not interested in buying the man's car, why are you picking his ad apart?

Let the man sell his car. Don't like the price? Move on...

Because it toughens up the seller getting experienced feedback- wait till the Jones pull up to look at a car and deal directly- Don't be so thin skinned...He will sell the car- no matter what anyone says- If someone wants it!

Yes, if he does sit on it long enough he'll get a sucker.

I will sell the car for less, I just need to get rid of it at this point. If anybody wants to give me an offer, I will be up for that. I am getting to the point of needing to really thin the collection.

The interior is in darn good shape, The only defect is a little rip in the passengers seat bottom. The rear seat looks like it has never really every been sat in.
Here are many more pictures of the car.
