The interesting cars for sale thread

I don't think we have a thread on interesting cars for sale, so here are two...

1966 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350 up for sale after 40 years in storage | Fox News



2005 MERCEDES AMG E55 WAGON 600+HP

That Ghia looks better in person than it does in that picture. I personally prefer the green one that has a little patina
