This one has always been a mystery to me... [PIC]
Way back when the original came out, it was the envy of East German border guards. Years later, with the same bones, it's jazzed up and stuffed with a supercharged AMG V8 and given a price tag of $130K up to $150.
and they sell.
What am I missing?

OK. If you HAD the disposable income, would you buy that?

No ! I'd get a car that I've lusted over for almost 30 years.

A '72 Pantera. All stock with the chrome bumpers.

I'm a pretty frugal guy. I don't care how many $$$$ might be in my bank account,
I'd still be a prudent buyer and not a show-off when it comes to a fine automobile. Those MBZ suv's don't do anything for me. Give me one and I'd sell it. Since I'm a delivery driver here in SoCal I see a boat load of these on the freeways. To me, it's just people trying to show/prove how much $$$$ they've foolishly spent.

Hey Richard ..... I have a question about picture # 11 .. see inside ( 1 ) ... Pictures # 11 ... is that a mirror located by the rear wheel ... and why?
And this is my stinkin' thinkin' as to why this vehicle is now so sought after on the retail market .....
Different Generation ... different mind set ... different demographic
My answer to your question ...
NO .... No I would not buy this car for no amount of money
My dream car is ....
1963 Corvette Split Rear Window - Silver Blue color combo with all factory add ons as possible
Now if I was Uber Super Rich ...

I would marry Super Car Blonde 😡

Dennis, are you referring to the last pic where there's a red and a white light in the bumper?
