Thanks, I replaced the links in the first post.

They all have rather high asking prices.

They all are special cars...

Those are the cream of 4.2's listed.

And each seems to be in garage kept condition.

I really love this combination with the 2008 Portfolio.

I'm not sure I could trade my caramel interior to get one.

Maybe some day I'll see a 2008 Portfolio in person and can make a better judgement.

Euro & UK prices always look higher when converted directly to USD. That's partly because sales tax is usually higher (e.g. 20% here in the UK) which pushes up the new-car price and thus keeps used prices higher. It's also because it's hard to just compare prices without comparing salaries & buying power.

Some countries may also have additional CO2-based taxes on cars. Finland, for example, where my non-R XK with all its options would've originally cost $191k. That's probably over twice the US price.
