gratz wit the new car...

I would've gone with C280 instead tho since u were trading in a C320. The C280 would've had similar power.

now go put your mods onto the new C

it was a quick swap from my old one. actually, the wife nagged me on the emblem. she had a coworker that got her car vandalized, and even damaged the hood when they took the star.

thanks. the C280 does not come with the Sport Package and the C350 is $7K more. i think the 2.5L V6 is good enough for me. besides, i needed cash so i have to trade for it.

mods? i'm hoping i would not have to.

19's/flat hood emblem/debadged/stealth blinkers/clear corners with LED bulbs/PIAA city lights/EUROLITE fog bulbs/debadged ... it's contagious!
