John asked "Why are people paying these crazy sums?"
A) eBay is a sellers market
B) as the years tick on, these are getting rarer to find (supply and demand)
C) we love these diesels
D) longevity is so rare in our society
E) maybe compared to todays new disposable rock climbers even at $7K with
65K miles on it it is no such a bad deal . Hey if you make it a daily driver
put 300K on her, not a bad price to pay for a ride. Heck you can
work/maintain on alot of it yourself...

It is such a pretty car- I don't think I'd spend 7k for it. Where do we
guess it will end? I saw a 300SD online for 17k or something like that.
Why are people paying these crazy sums?
I should put up my 300D 2.5 74k miles on Ebay, ask $15k for it. Retire
early.

andrew may have said
"Looks awesome, though "The car ooozes class and regality" strikes me as
a
bit of hyperbole... After all, it's only an entry level car for that
year
and probably listed for about $5 grand"
I am a 123 chassis sort of diesel guy, but that era low fin body style
and
simple 4 banger appeals to me for some reason.
