There is a good discussion (mostly my ranting) on the word RARE in the vintage section. Worth a read, I hate that word.

If you want to get down to it, that car is massively more common than 300D Turbo actually.

Its a neat car, but for all the time he took to write that add he could have washed the damn car. That car is FILTHY. Love stupid details like the hood release just hanging down. Its held in with two screws, takes 15-20 seconds to fix, but instead he spent 3 hours on that long winded ad.

Nothing about it is special order, it is uncommon to see a euro car spec'd with leather and automatic climate control, but all manual windows. Most Euro cars have cloth of MB Tex that I have seen, even my 200TD has power front seats and power front windows but Tex and manual climate control.
