1985 300D: Ol' Turbo 198k, Wichita, Ks $3995.00

Unless yours is in comparable condition, or better considering yours has a bunch more miles on it, you would be extremely fortunate to find a buyer at that price.
Is my car going to become the gold standard for correctly priced 300Ds?

I would say a 264k model would only worth $2000-$2500 unless the condition is outstanding with a disgusting amount of service records and everything functioning perfectly, or has been blessed by the pope. That is to an informed buyer. Some local yokel on craigslist may give you 4000 or more buying on emotion without doing any research. You could get lucky. My car had to go to a forum member because I genuinely care deeply for Ol' Turbo, but I knew I had to price it right.
