$200,000?
Comma is in a strange place on the advert

I'm not so sure, 356s can be quite valuable.
200K sound like a lot of money but this car comes complete with with a new fuel filter, a NOS fuel pump and all the Soft Gaskets for the motor.
And a set of Piston rings.

Is it really worth posting anything on here anymore?
Thought DDK was better than this.
Carry on trolling, wtf ...

I was asking a serious question - do you think it’s up for 200,000?
The advert states $ 20000,00
Seems a lot if it is $200,000 as I'm sure I've seen restored examples at that - I may be out of touch with values though?
As for Mike’s comment I can’t comment - he does like to try humour

I don't think 356B Cabriolets in fully restored condition go for much more than $200k-$225k so if they do mean $200k then I think they're way out even if it is a one owner car.
$20K would be much too low.
Personally I'd think a more realistic price would be $100k max ...

Exactly Andy, hence my original questions - no trolling.

The advertiser has cunningly changed the price to $20000.00, so now it's a bargain.

No that's what it was when I originally clicked through but it's a comma not a decimal point hence the question

Good point ! Maybe a comma instead of a full stop is the American way.
How do you read it Chris ?

Thought it looked like a nice little car that someone might want to pick the phone up about.
There are six zeros in the add. Ignore the comma altogether and it would be $2M - Unlikely
Assume the comma to be the decimal separator and it's $20k - that's about £15k, worth a call, no?

Cheap if it's £15K

also advertised here where the price is clearly stated at $20,000. As you say, seems very cheap considering completeness and other parts provided. surprised it hasnt been snapped up....
