Hello!!
Hello!
I just got my new 2006 C230 Sport three months ago, and I've decided to join this cool forum!
I'll put up pics soon!
Can't wait to see what kind of mods I can do with her!

Hello!
Thanks for all the nice compliments. This is also my first MB. I had a 01 Accord EX V6 "riced" out before I got this car. The fate of that car? Rear ended and TOTALED by a 2004 MB G500 going about 35mph. My Accord looked like a crumpled soda can and was minus a rear end. The damage on the G500? His headlamp was cracked, and he had a few dents and scratches.....but that's it! Talk about a testament to MB's being built like a freaking BANK VAULT.
Thanks to the G500 dude, my insurance paid me enough to put a NICE fat down payment to my new C230 SS.

If they set it up like something out of Fast and The Furious w/ the decals allover the place, stickers, etc...then we're going into the "rice" territory. Other than that, I appreciate a nice looking JDM car just as much as a nice looking Euro. Now, which of the two garners more "respect", well that is unfortunately a different story and a Euro will win the majority of the time.
I definitely love Euro cars more than any other....(not to bag on American or Japanese, it's just a personal preference)
Porsche has got to be my fav car company of all time though! I saw my first 911 Turbo when I was 12 years old, and it was LOVE at first drive-by. Hehe

I kept the factory rear lights....mostly because I didn't care much for the out-of-style Altezza style units that practically everyone with a Honda had. My parents actually got the Accord for me back in college....I wanted a Merc SLK at the time but......yeah.....you know how that goes. LOL
Regardless, hope you have just as much fun with the Benz. I know I went from convincing myself that modding a Benz would just be way out of my budget, to almost buying at least 1 mod per month (I've slowed down lately because of budget for rims).
