Green interior- rarity?
« on: June 27, 2015, 23:27:12 »
Does anyone have info on the production number of green interiors on a 280SL?
Curios as to how many as the color seems rare?
Any info appreciated.  Just bought one with 48,000 miles.

I have no numbers. But there were just green with 2 exterior colors.
Paint white and silver, but many have it inside from green changed to red or black.
It will no longer be many in green.
I think it looks classically

In the past 15 years I looked at a few Pagodas with green interiors. There were two that had white exteriors and four that were Moss Green (both metallic and non-metallic). The green interiors are beautiful, in my opinion.

I have one with green interior, there are others.  I think the rarity can be the color combo.  But don't know if the "rarity" ads to value in many cases.  I have yet to see another Tunis beige and dark green and have not seen another one with my color combo.
