I'm in the market for a car now but I'm not replacing a 20 year old car with another 20 year old car of higher expense but damn it sure is tempting....
Its about $11500 US Money. On my dealer wholesale there's a bunch of both for way less than that. The best examples are a silver 1991 850 with 69,000 for $8500 and a 2002 CL600 with 97000 miles for $10,000. Neither car is particularly desireable for any purpose. Certianly not for a daily driver, enthusiasts know to avoid them, and there's better and more collectable GT coupes to buy such as the 3.0 csi and 560SEC. Even in the same body style the CL55 is a better car as well as the 840 or 850CSI.
