What's the news on this? Anyone care to comment in simple laymen, US delivery terms and price?
cheers,

Typo?
The article says that "The spurt of 0 on 100 km/h lasts 7,6 seconds." This is approx. 0-62 mph time, not high at all (how fast is the "regular" C230K Coupe?). I hope that it is a typo...otherwise, why would one spend all that money for it?

MBWorld Fanatic!
Those parktronic sensors detract big time from the clean smooth lines of the bumpers. Also it seems like a sign that says look at me, I don't know how to park my car!
It makes sense that the 0-60 mph is 7.2 and 0-100 kph is 7.6 as it should take a little longer to hit 100 kph. The Carlson CK23 gives you 230 bogus horse power. The extra bogus power is produced by the large ugly wheels, the fake dual exhaust and removing the MB star from the grill. The reason it costs so much is that there a fools out there that will pay it.
