I'd take the 06 C230.
From my experience their is a noticeable difference in the driving feel and quality feel with these new facelift models with the new V6s. Even better with a 7 speed auto unless you really prefer manuals!
More direct handling, steering, braking, etc. Interior is up a notch in quality and generally feels like a better car. I would choose this over whether or not it's fully loaded. You can always add goodies as time passes if you must.
just my 2 cents!

Get the manual transmission. The extra gear can't make up for how uninvolving the automatic is.

Well local places are doing 1.2k back of DEALER COST so I would push harder than that.
There is no lease program for the 2006's so they will be stacking up really quick as soon as the 2005's are gone.
They are dealing big time on the 2006 cars because they cost way too much to lease.

Wrong !
Coupe's do not come with AMG front bumpers.
It's a PHOTOSHOP of the previous picture.... removed star / replace with badge / and photoshopped grill. See post # 16.
