these are the pics of the European C350's instrument panel and I'm guessing that the C230 would get the same thing, but I may be wrong

very nice! looks awesome!

btw, there is no V6 badge on the C240's, C320's and the C350's. odn't feel bad.

get the V6 badge from the C32's and put it on if you want it.

i've driven the C230K SS and C230K Coupe,
and i own a C320 SS and a C320 Coupe.
Those two engine types, you can definitely tell a huge difference.

so i'm going to the dealer this Saturday to drive the new C230 & C350 SS to compare.
