Good morning you guys.

I think I know why it has gone unsold.....

Must be the cool (or hot) red interiors!

Hattie, thanks for finding it. JimB thanks for the alert.

I told JimB in an e-mail that I think I've found a suitable replacement. It is a 1990 300CE. It is not signal red but it is in very good conditions, has low miles and a thick and complete set of service records since it was bought new at Beverly Hills Motor.

Enrique blessed the potential future purchase.

Let's see what happens!

Not in this weather!

The interior would just kill it for me also. Just seems to cheapen it a abit.

Excellent turn of events, but we need more details.

What color is it?

How did you find it? At a dealer's lot, or in a classified ad?

Any pics?

Glad you found one! The red interior would kill it for me, I don't know what people were smoking when the ordered red interior's, ahh the 80's.

Nice 300CE Hat, but as others have said - that interior is horrid. I'd be driving around murmuring "redrum....redrum....redrum"...

Ernesto - let us know how it goes and don't forget the pics!

Ah, the interior color. It was a common one in the big luxury American cars from the 70's and 80's, and with the "mouse fur" velour upholstery.

The Car magazines of that somewhat benighted time called it "Bordello Red" because it reminded the automotive journalists of whorehouse interior decor.

I wonder how they knew that.

He's probably asking too much.

Yea. I wouldn't go for it, it doesn't look like your car.
There are nice color variations still available out there, just have to find them ...
You also could check on a 24 valve version, or focus on '94 to '95s. I find these to be the most refined W124 bodies ... naturally.
