one of the used car dealer offered me 12k for my gf's xb so we sold it..


and the C230 Kompressor SEDAN (not the ugly hatchback) in White with black interior...6speed STICK.....with all options except for navi and winterpackage ( mbz navi is very sad)

the car in the pic is NOT hers... i will pick it up on Friday because it is hard to find a white 6speed.

Anyways i am very amazed by the standard features that comes with the car (drilled rotors, Pzero tires and etc....)

i am not too familar with benz since i was never a fan of it but the C230K is a very good buy condsider its price and brand.

19" axis supermesh is on the way along with H&R spring... i need some advice and suggestions on this thing.. dont know much about benz....

Nice upgrade for her. These cars look hot but they don't "go" all that much. More than that xB though

Talking about "GO" ... i took the xb to vegas the past weekend... i was dying climing mountains... LIKE DYING!!!!


well the c230 is not a fast car but i took a test drive the AUto one... the speed surprised me.... especially the low end torq.....
i read on the forum that alot of ppl get 0-60 in high 6 - low 7s with 1/4 mid 15s... compare to xb 0-60 in 10 secs +, is good enough =)

The C230 is a very nice car! Best of luck with it!

One of my ex-friends (she's cool but _way_ too emo for me to keep around) got an xB and... we tried going uphill w/ 4 people & some luggage in that thing. Words can not describe the laughs I got listening to that motor whine and bitch. But when the initial "wtf" factor was gone, there was a steady on my face.

The ride is hot, good luck with it. There is a local chick that brings her worked 230k to the track and runs low 13's all the time.
