Description

"Spectacular" may sound a wee bit dramatic, but we feel this perfectly describes our Tunis Beige with green 280SE cabriolet. With its smashing original colors, low owners and mileage, fabulous restoration, and wonderful road manners, spectacular indeed an apt description. Our Tunis Beige 280SE cabriolet is on offer now in our suburban Boston showroom.
