Will Cascadia offer some response?  Inquiring minds want to know...

I think the car is worth at least 50, it got up to 45 the last time on eBay.  882 ZF cars made, how many were DB180 on black leather, and how many have this type of intensive paperwork?  I also think part of its value lies in the fact that it has been consistently driven and maintained.

I think it's a beautiful example. Cascadia sells quality, so I'm not surprised.

My one question is if the fenders and hood are original.

The hood is, the fenders aren't.

I also agree that Cascadia has always had quality cars and that Bob is a true gentleman.

Gee! that is just gorgeous [:p]
Now could I really justify having 2 Pagodas in store?

For those of you that like to track prices of Pagodas, this car sold today for 49K, or 5,635,000 Yen, it's going to Japan.  Strange this is, while waiting for the 250 to sell, I found another ZF car, a late 230, ALSO db180 silver with black leather!  What are the chances?

After seeing this car on Ebay, it is a surviving beauty.  I'm curious, what does the knob mounted under the dash control?

The knob is the rear speaker fader control
