Just ordered my 2003 W203 and have a question.

I just ordered my 2003 C240 Capri Blue with black leather
6-speed. I also ordered the Bi-xenons. My car will be built in Sept. and here by Oct. Will my Headlights be those new clear Bi xenon head lights? Or will they be like the old ones? I wanted the C320 6-speed. But 2,000 Total out of pocket and 600.00 a month lease was a bit high for me. So I downgraded to a C240 for 2,000 total out of pocket and 450.00 a monthe Lease. Hows that sound?
Thanks Guys.

I think that the xenons will be the new ones..
Sounds good, but I don't like leasing, I prefer buying and owning

You're gonna get knocked by people for leasing, but I'm leasing as well and it makes sense. You can option out a nice car for a couple years until you can afford something better... or you buy it at the end then you've just lengthened the financing period (and paid more in interest and charges, oh well, small price to pay to drive a nice car NOW)... either way you get to drive a nice car with lots of options NOW, when it counts, who wants to wait?

MY2001 C320
If you can fork out the extra $150 go get the 320. The hp diff may not be that much but the torque curve is WAY BETTER in the 320. I test drove both and you need to keep the rev over 3500 to move the 240. The 320 has a lot of oomph once you hit 3000.

Of course, if you are get from point A to point B type then 240 is very good value.

Thanks for all the great help guys. I just really hope that when my car comes in (OCT) that the Bi xenon I ordered are those new clear projector xenons. My sales person told me they were. But he said he was 100%. I would really be able to sleep better if someone gave me a for sure answer.
Thanks
