Omg: Lmao! Ebay Coupe Tails!!!

LOL oh man, I'm still laughing. its a set of tinted black pre-facelift coupe tails, this idiot wants to sell it for $300+50 shipping. I sold mine for $120 SHIPPED!

even if you get a new set of tails+tints its not even close to $300!

anyways, heres what is stated!

Update the boring red W203 Coupe C230K C-Class Mercedes with these Euro, black taillights. The updated, red/white 2005 tail lights cost $300 EACH at the dealer, if you can find them, and make the coupe look like a Dodge Neon! These black tail lights are H-O-T and half the price. You are bidding on a pair, left and right.

Neons don't have coupes either so that actually doesn't make any sense!

Well, unlike yours, they're AMG tinted tails, so they're definitely worth the extra money.

I do agree with them that the newer tails don't look as good, but I think I'm in the minority here.

Though badly written:

"The updated, red/white 2005 tail lights cost $300 EACH at the dealer, if you can find them, and make the coupe look like a Dodge Neon!"

He's actually saying the 2005 red/white tail lights make the coupe look like a Dodge Neon.

What he SHOULD'VE said was:

"The updated, red/white 2005 tail lights cost $300 EACH at the dealer, (if you can find them) and make the coupe look like a Dodge Neon!"

But yeah, besides his bad command of the English language, talk about shady products.

Believe it or not, there's an ebay seller on there that has a ton of these lights. Most of them are for MB and BMW and they actually sell for these outrageous prices. They're very nicely done, at least the ones i'm talking about but i myself can't justify the price, especially when i can do the same thing myself.

No, the C couple has always looked like a CRX -- it doesn't take a pair of smoked taillights to pull off that look.

True dat. I should take some pics of my '90 Si next to my ccoupe - it was one of the reasons why I got the Benz in the first place.

AHA they do! I just did a search In all honesty, I seriously thought they only made a 4 door, and after seeing a pic of how ugly the coupe is, I seriously don't even remember ever seeing one on the road. Now I'm an idiot haha

ok, so what your saying is that the crx and the coupe look alike because of that peice of glass...

using your reasoning your C- sedan looks a lot like a 02 camry.

Just because there is one thing that seems to be "similiar" in a car, doesn't make the two cars look alike.

Being the only one here with both cars, I definitely see a slew of similiarities. The overall shape is vaguely similar, as is the aforemetioned rear end.

The funny thing is that 10 years from now, the ccoupe will be an afterthought, while the crx will continue its current cult status. Not to mention its ability to kick any ccoupe's *** in a track day of course. It's really the crx that suffers in being compared to the ccoupe, not the other way around. The fun to drive quotient is not even close.

IMO, comparing the entry level C-Class Coupe and the BMW 318ti, the C coupe looks MUCH better.

KEV, The CRX cannot be compared to a C Coupe. Thats some beef for us coupe owners, its like someone comparing your sedan to a camry. but its all good. I still love my car, and you still love yours!

remember, word of the day is "gum yue lo"
