How fast???
Guys since there arent many videos of c230s that i can find how fast are they really? Can someone compare manual to tiprtonic and give me an idea of what cars it would beat in a normal street race 1/4 mile. Thanks (Sport not kompressor)

Ooops - after re-reading your post, did you mean C230 with the V6, not the Kompressor? (As opposed to C230s with the Sport Package? Sport Coupes?)

I believe the M111 and M271 were rated at the same 0-60 by MB: 7.8 seconds with the automatic. Figure on 1/2 second quicker with the manual transmission.
Best times that I've seen people post about have been M111 owners with pulleys. I believe Buellwinkle and Emrliquidlife have posted low 6-second 0-60s with a pulley and 6-speed. I have run a 6.77 second 0-60 with an automatic. I don't know what M271 owners' times are with the pullies are though.

OK, looking on the web and other forums, I see that the C230 with the 2.5 liter V6 and manual transmissions run 0-60 in 8.0 - 8.2 seconds (depending on which source you look at.) That's for a manual transmission equipped C230.
