Here we go with less than 30 minutes on the clock! From what I have read there was only 550 50th anniversary editions made world wide and depending on the forum, approximately 100 in the states, some even say less than that.. If you have any last minute questions let me know and happy bidding on this very unique car!

That interior color is so good! I actually didn't know they had a 50th edition of the R230 so imagine this one is pretty rare!

I have homes in both states, if you send the title to Nevada they will collect the tax on the sale as well. Best of luck with the sale great car but if it sells for what I think I don’t want to pay that much in taxes. Nevada if bought private is no tax.
@coachmule If you register the car in California then you would have to pay tax, no matter if it private or dealership purchase. If you are not from California or not registering the car in California then you would not be responsible for California tax.

Is this titled in your dealership name or is it open ? If it’s in the dealership name I’ll have to factor in the 10% tax here in California too bad that might kill the deal.
Wish it had the glass option top. Nice car but with the market crashing again today it’s a good time to look for deals. I’ll follow it and see if I can pick it up I’m in San Diego and sold my 2003 and miss it bad.
Oh wow - this is gorgeous. I didn't even know they made a 50th Anniversary edition in '07. That color combination is perfect!
