Whats my w124 worth?

Hello everyone, I am thinking about putting my 1988 300e on my local craigs list. I am not sure what a fair asking price is. 135K runs good, new plugs bp5efs, fresh oil change, about $5500 was put into the car, new ball joints etc. It starts up and runs/ drives great. Has all the options, leather is in great shape. The car was from texas and has been in the distant family since 89.Has never seen snow or salt, made the trip from TX to NY no probs a few years back.
I am wondering if someone could give me a ballpark I should I ask for the car.

i believe mr kbb and mr nada will be able to help you out with ballpark figures. don't expect to get any more than that for a 20 year old car, regardless of how much work has been done to it, since all that work just techniocally brought it up to the standard it should have been at.

For reference, there was a nice looking 94/ 95 E320 for sale on the street near my house a few days ago; 158XXX miles.

I called, out of curiosity; $2200.

Good to know, I am going to miss the 300 but I need a car more suited for a poor college kid, ya know? Sad but true
