I'm pretty sure I test drove a 1980 240D when it was new and remember the MSRP/selling price was $20,000. It was more than I wanted to spend or should have spent, but in the long run it would have been worth it. The salesman said it was built to the same standard as all of their cars, and I believe that to be true. I remember my dad saying it "wouldn't pull a string out of a wildcat's ass."

I got a 1980 SAAB 900 Turbo 3-door for $13,xxx with a good discount in 1981. I really wanted the new 1981 4-door 900 Turbo, but it was over $15,000.
