Hi Lee,

I am selling my 1990 300D 2.5. It has 243K miles. It is smoke silver
with light tan interior. Fantastic shape. I bought it from my mechanic
almost three years ago. He bought from a customer who was the original
owner. I posted a few pics here recently. I have 30-40 pics if anyone
is interested.
