Thanks Dick - however, I now realize my conversion from DM to USD was way off. (think I had Euro on my mind)
It was roughly 3DM to 1USD, or thereabouts, so the DM6000 metallic paint option is more like USD2000 which is comparable to what they charge today on some new car orders.
But I can say the Automatic option was very expensive - DM1400 back in the late 60's would be roughly DM21000 today which roughly converts to US$7,000. Given that price, it is surprising to see that most (my guess) were ordered that way. Now I can see why the Aussie and UK versions had the "Automatic" badge on the trunk (boot) lid. If I paid out that much for an Automatic - I would want to be bragging about it too!
How would like to pay US$4,000 for leather or US$3,250 for a radio!!!
They certainly were a well-heeled bunch those new pagoda owners!
