New 2003 in Orlando

Was driving by MB of Orlando to see what leftover 2002's were avail. and to my surprise they had a 2003, (Obsidian blk/oyster, auto, roof, and factory CD changer ($400 as reported)). It was getting dark & didn't have much time but did note mileage 23city?/32highway!! (city was 2 higher than 02's, hwy was 4 higher) Tires were Pirelli P6. Door handles for 03 on non-C7 appear to be black still. Located on the regular lot alongside a 2003 230slk (also w/$400 factor changer). Since they were closed couldn't ask what the status of the car was.

Interesting... Are they sticking with the C230 coupe name or did they change it along with the engine displacement change- C180? What about the price?

I wonder if they "supercharged" the pana-roof motor or added one-touch close. It's way too slow on my '02 IMO.

That's funny the only thing I see about price is regarding the CD changer, what about the price of the car?

The base price is unchanged. Some of the options are slightly higher, for example the auto trans is now $1325.
