I recently came across a deal that may be awesome. Lately ive been looking for a car that had class and elegance, yet still had some balls under the hood. While my 240d has less performance than some scooters ive seen, It does have a very high class appeal. And now ive come across a 1974 california smog, 280s (WIch is the older body style, do not know the chassis number) No rust whatsoever, california car. Runs good, has auto tranny. this guy is willing to trade it for my rough looking 240d. Should i bite? Im very fond of inline six cylinders This one has the first year of the california emissions, wich he said it has the "gasoline return canister" wich helps keep the gas longer or something. The car actually only has 100k on it.
