| burqueDOKA Elite Veteran Date registered: Jul 2006 Location: Albuquerque, NM Vehicle(s): 1550L37Doka, 404 ROCKMOG, '00 G500 Posts: 622  | 1984 280GE for sale Hey folks, I am afraid to say I'm selling my 280. As much as I love her, I am becoming lustful for V8 power, and it didn't help that I test drove a 463 the other day. I am really torn about trading her in on a newer G, and so with the older G market being what it is today, I figured I better get it posted soon and be willing to sit on it until the right person comes along. Anyway a little info on my G. Sorry for the shameless plug. 1984 280GE, 157k miles, imported by one of our own here at P3. This is not a Europa G, totally euro-spec. 5 speed tranny, cold AC, NO RUST, I'll say it again, ABSOLUTELY NO RUST, very clean and original inside and out. Extensive maintainence records, mostly worked on by Executive Automotive in Santa Fe, NM. Top-end rebuild a year ago. All recomended scheduled services performed. This is as clean and original and beautiful a 280GE as they come. I am prepared to sit and wait, so for now I'm asking $18k obo.

Your compliments make it even harder for me to think of selling her, if only she was a V8. As promised, here are some additional photos. -James BTW, a little more info: Alpine cd/am/fm w/ iPod control and interface (you can see where the iPod is located in the photo, the cable is routed very neat and discrete to that pocket). Infinity kappa speakers in the front dash and rear corner panels. Nakamichi four channel amp, no sub woofer.
