Nice color combo. I immediately though of you TheDon. Is that the same color as your cab?

Wheels are incorrect.
Should be polished for '95.

Maybe if you want to do a lot of work.

What should the ball park for a nice turn key cab be? 10-12k? Can you get a loan for a car that old?

Not sure about cab pricing...bur you certainly can get a loan for a car that old...

I know when I went through CapOne for the Crossfire that I did the "blank check" loan and with that I could buy a car from 1995 or newer that had less than 175k miles on it...

When pricing loans for some vintage cars...there are specialty loan companies...

Interesting that someone posted this today - I saw this earlier this week online - I love the color and one of these for sure is at the top of my list - however I would think low 20's with that miles and very unusual color is the absolute most that car is worth - and even at that price it is probably more than it is worth... but I do LOVE the color.... Vacationing in Charleston SC right now, may just stop by Atlanta on the way home to Cincy to check it out if they are willing to come back to earth on the price...

The thing that keeps talking me out of a late-model w124 is the evaporator; having watched Doktorno's 500E get it's ENTIRE dash taken out to the tune of $4000, I've become less interested in the w124s.

I have had the dash out of a w124 twice, and a w123 once. It's really not that big of a deal, just a process that takes patience. If anyone wants to bring me their car.. I would be glad to R/R the dash, for a nice little fee

I'd say 14-15k for a very very nice example with a smudge under 100k. And that's with the evaporator done, the hydros for the top, and the wiring harness. If the top is original it needs to be in good shape. The cabriolets are very nice cars and I miss mine. I'll get it back one day.
