Rare ZIL-3207 Bus: Production Run and Price
The ZIL Yunost series with the factory index 3207 was produced in a limited run — only 30 units. In Ukraine, only two such buses are known to have survived in good condition.
The ZIL-3207 was created as a small executive bus for transporting delegations and officials. Due to the extremely small number of vehicles produced, the model is considered one of the rarest in the legacy of the ZIL plant. The price of the specimen put up for sale is $150,000.
