Hmm,now you have me wondering;I have an 87 with the same style seating but the darker(nutmeg?) color.I dont think it'll move too fast at that price though.

Don, I second that, but Eagles are really really pricey here... There's another one (also in northern Italy) for sale at something like $30,000. Last year a guy offered 15,000 for mine (no way ;) ).

They're "exotic" cars here, and classics too, not to mention they're quite rare. My "philosophy" is to only buy stuff that increases its value in time, that's why I drive an Eagle ;D

Oh, really ? I guess that's why I need BOTH rear bumper corner caps now. Doh !

That's why when I see the offers for Eagles in USA I always start drooling... Knowing myself, though, I could buy 5 Eagles and never make a buck out of them. I'd end up keeping them all in my driveway and driving a diff'rent one each day of the week ;)
