88' 300e worth it...???

Asking $3500 at a shady used car dealer. Paint needs buffed really bad but seems devoid of any major scratches or dents. One rust spot at the bottom of the rear window. (almost quarter size)
4 Decent Michelins. New alternator and belt. New exhaust. This is as much as I could tell from no test drive and just looking. Spoke to the man briefly and he says it is idling rough. Think I have that figured out already. Interior is pretty nice. Around 150k. I will go back for a test drive. If anyone else is SERIOUSLY interested I can post back with some pics.

Sounds like a dog.

You should be able to find a perfectly running example with no rust and cold air for 3500 dollars and 150k miles. Maybe even 125k miles.
