VinnyJDM's 03 C240 showoff
Vinny here, 24 from Chicago, IL.
I have a 2003 Mercedes-Benz C240. Exterior is Black, interior is Gray. We got it with about 65k miles for $9500 from an older couple. Got the car for my sister, clearly a hell of a deal. Well after my sister got her 2011 Porsche Boxster, my mom & I got the C240 back.
At first I honestly hated the car, my sis didn't take very good care of it and I just thought it looked like **** & was kind of lame. Anyway, after it got rear ended I had to take it to my paint/body guy to get repaired and replace the drivers tail light. During the process I decided to start messing with it, the plan was to sell it (because my mom wanted to) but after some small mods i'm starting to want to keep it for myself!
Right now theres a few problems. The drivers side lock keeps bouncing, sometimes it locks and sometimes it take a few clicks to get it to lock. Also my turn signal won't stay up when I push it up (to go right.) Last but not least the sunroof has been acting up, wouldn't close for a while would just go close to the way forward and stop before it could close. (Anybody with some advice fill me in!)
I'm going to post pics on Thursday!
Mods:
Front--
-Newer style 3 fin grill
-OEM flat hood emblem
-Clear side markers
-Black windshield eyebrow
Back--
-Trunk lip spoiler
-'AMG Style' dual exhaust tip
-Custom black tail light vinyl

Well the turn signal just needs to be replaced search on here common and not to expensive.
Sunroof probably just needs a cleaning and proper grease (search on here it is expensive stuff but the only thing you should use)
