2005 Mercedes C230 Sport Sedan (W203)
Its different for the US vs Canada. Not sure about the US but in Canada:

Sedans:
C230W = Sports sedan
C230X = Sedan (No sport package)
C320X4M/C320W4M = 4Matic (The X and M dont seem to reliably designate sport package)

Coupes (All coupes start with CL):
CL230 = Coupe
CL230M = Coupe with manual transmission
