I guess the seller got low balled one too many times and fell off the deep end.

ya think? the word "classic" is used maybe twenty seven times? i think someone's a little uh angry? and defensive?

btw, technically, yes, it is a classic, but give me a late sixties coupe (w108?w109) with the pillarless roof anytime. isn't this just really a glorified w116 with two doors and a big blind spot?

Not sure about the coupe, but my experience has been that the W123 has the best visibility through the windows of any vehicle that I've driven. The large windshield, wide rear view mirror, and large rear window provide for great visibility. Many of these new cars have these rear windows that are just horrid to me. When the side mirrors are adjusted to the correct position, I have absolutely NO blind spots.

It is completely reasonable to state "Do not call to offer me less," as stated here.

I have no idea if the car is worth the asking price, but that has no bearing on whether this is a reasonable request.

I bet the seller is a single female who has not gotten laid in a long long time
