should i have waited to get my car?
Gosh, just reading the post re: the great deals that a few of you got on your 2002 c230 makes me feel like I should of waited to get my car later.
I got my car on 7/17/02, just a little over a month ago. I paid $28,660 for mine (black, auto, pano roof, and c7) and NO DEALS for my my car.
But then I tell myself, hey I have the car just be happy with it. And besides, I got for my birthday(7/26).

I'm sure you could have haggled on a deal to lower the price a tad, however it would have most likely been extremely minute.
Enjoy your car.

you could've wait for the 03 model. it'll have the new head light design (although i don't like it very much), but if what you want was the 2.3 engine than you really don't have any choice. you chould've haggled with the dealer for lower price if you tried because it's the end of 02 model. there is no way that dealers are able to sell them at window sticker.
most people don't like to get end of year cars because they feel they are buying an old car. those who buy cars at the end of the model years because they know they can get a better price since no one else wants'em.
still a good price for the car though.

The new headlamps are clear, and they're also Bi-Xenon's rather than the normal Xenon's.

C Clas headlight
Standard halogen headlights will be exactly the same for the '03 cars as they were for the '02s.
They will only differ when the optional bi-xenons are ordered as a standalone option or as part of the C4 package.
