The 124 convertible is the modern equivalent of the W111 cabriolet ('68-'71? 280SE). If prices I see on CL and eBay are any indication, the car should sell for anywhere from twice to ten times the price of a plain ol' 6-cylinder 124 sedan of the same year--i.e. $10,000 on up."
Boy, I hope they don't think it is worth that much! I was hoping to pay no more than $7500 and only that much if it has low miles. You are right, these cars are getting very pricey and they are hard to find. There is one for sale here in town for $20K and its got 90K miles. Well, I will keep bugging him about the car. Donald H.
