C280 rant!
How come they dont have a sport package for C280..????

I mean the car is fine and good, but why no sport package!!!????

3 friends with w203 - 2 C350 Sport and 1 C230 Sport...

And there's me with the C280 without the fancy gimmicks...

Didn't want the 200 hp from C230, but not really wanting a 268 hp from a C350, so I get left out... wtf

LOL, you already got it...think from a better perspective...seeing how so many SS out there on the road, instead of going AMG, you can just get other tuner kit. Making yours more rare.

With diamond black, i think both Carlsson and Brabus kits would look awesome.
