'04 Mars Red C230K Sport Coupe (not Coup-EH)
Actually, one thing I kinda like is the Kompressor logo on the doors, and I'm thinking of moving the one on the back to the drivers side door. Does it look to be the same size to you, or is there a smaller kompressor badge?
Beyond that, the wing is less than steallar, the front spoiler is the oddest spoiler I've ever seen (with the exception of the cardboard spoiler above
), and the leather interior looks to be one of the cheapest I've ever seen (if you can tell from pictures, that's really bad). Also, one of the silliest things to come out of Pimp My Ride is the idea that your friends will want to be in your car so they can play video games. Yeah, right. You do that at home on your 40"+ TV, not a 7" LCD.
The paint job actually isn't so bad, but they could have gone and picked better colors. I always wanted to do a black-to-red gradient on my BMW, but I never got around to it.
And 50k for a 2003 C230K? It better be able to fly for that amount. (Maybe that's what the wing is for...)

the little coupe that couldn't sell....
Buy It Now price was $39,798.00
Auction ended with House of Luxuries in Costa Mesa, CA putting in the highest bid for $24,100.00....
but, it didn't sell, because it did not meet the reserve price.
Second chance to buy this fugly thing:
eBay - 2003 Mercedes-Benz : C-Class C230 SPORT
still has a reserve though...

in Delaware, it would definitely sell.... specially around the Dewey Beach area. And that would be a good thing, because then someone could just take that poor Coupé out of its misery and slam it into a tree !
