 $30,000.00 Well, someone WILL buy it, won't be me!
I wouldn't even pay $25,000.00 for a 300GD TD installed Europa swap. The engine only has 15k on it! That is just highway robbery......my 2cents!!!

The 1986 230GE is the one I see in Beaufort, NC all the time. It is in tip top shape and has Louis Vitton interior.
I inquired about the price.
I would like to have it but I am sure they want a mint for it.

I would be curious when this vehicle actually came to the US. I have Washington State registration for my 1980 300 GD Cabrio dating back to January 1981. It would be interesting to know if this one actually came here before that. I would have to stop speculating that mine is, perhaps, the first Gwagen to come to the US.

I don't know wheter it was the first one into the US, but it was the first one sent to the US by DCAG to "test the waters". |
