Since it is likely illegal for anyone outside of a dealer to have anyhow... how about we all pitch in $1 and then post the .ISO of the CD's on a site?
If or one would LOVE a copy!!! Why should the guy that pirated it from his brother that works the parts counter make $20 each set!?

well, i received the 3 cdroms today...
i tried installing the parts software (2 cdroms) piece on my computer at work - and it didn't work... there are no real instructions.
put a cd in each drive (and i hope they're not coded so that it has to be drives D: & E: ). the little note says that NT or XP are required (i have winME - don't laugh!) - after installation attempt, it said missing dlls... blah blah blah - no UNINSTALL in either the control panel nor in the menu it created.
i will attempt it again on my home machine which has XP.
the bonus cd has a bunch of pics for each car w/ arrows pointing out the parts - but not the 203... it'll be useful if i ever buy an old merc and fix-er-up. this is kinda cool b/c i could install the whole thing on the computer (no cdrom needed).
btw, these are definitely bootlegs...

You can install the whole thing on a hard drive - the installation program has such option. Then you won't need CD-ROMs at all.
Among interesting things (pertinent to C Coupe, CL203) are:
- Advanced cruise control and automatic lane recognition feature;
- 4 different front springs for the coupe (different part numbers);
I'll keep searching for cool stuff, haven't had much time for that yet.

i looked at the Starfinder cd some more - the slk - for the air filter to see if it was sort of similar to the coupe's but it looks like it is mostly for the electronics. so no pic of the air filter. still, kind of interesting to go thru it (but no search! argh!
)timmy, i'd recommend just buying from that guy i linked above.

i can't get the darned program to work. at the office, it installed the win95 version and i think that was the problem.
at home, it installed the NT version:
i tried it in a subdirectory and on the root directory of C: but still no luck. the program looks like it should work (it seems to have installed fine). but it just sort of hourglass starts and then nothing... i can see the process in the process list. winmmm.exe(? sorry, not sure of the exact file as i'm not on that computer)
i have XP pro. installed SERVER version, USA, copy both cds to the hard drive (registry settings look like the paths are correct). i did get a message at the last step - something about paths not set, reboot is recommended. so i did.
argh! frustrating enough that i'm going to sleep...
