I've only had mine for two weeks, so the jury is still out. But, on Friday, a lovely latina blew me a kiss in traffic. Excellent!!

north carolina huh?.... hmmm ... maybe i should drive a lil further down this summer when i go to va beach... haha

but actually in nyc yo do get the right attention from the car...
when i drove through the city at about 2am....
i caught a few checkin the car and inside as i passed clubs and as they crossed intersections
a few necks snapped....

to get off the topic... i raced this 2000 prelude on the 59th street bridge on the way to the city
we were goin about 50-60 and he took off....
i did too (shifting to 3rd)... as i hear his intake roar....
i was catching up with no problem... shifted to 4th with 2 gears left
i could've hit his bumper...
i wonder if his car was an auto ... i didn't think the car would be that slow...
anyway... this car has ample power...

How much do you attribute to the "removal of the Camaro" rather than the "addition of the Benz"? :p I would have considered the Camaro to be a lady-repulsor.

This is a funny thread. I have a 1999 Z28 Camaro and my wife has the 2002 C240.

I have to say the chicks hollar at me more in the Z. But it just might be that the local people seem to like hotrods more than refined works of art. My wife gets plenty of yells too in the Z, riding or driving.

In the big city, the Benz gets equal attention though.

Actually, I'm hoping the C230 will be a more downplayed car, less flashy than my current ride... The attention is nice (especially from Valets who always park it out front), but it gets old...

My current ride:
