Could you please provide us with another picture of the buttons above the radio at your earliest convenience? I'm referring to the buttons that flank both sides of the red hazard flasher.

Nice black floormats.

Nice car. I didnt think you could get a w203 with a grey steering wheel. That compliments the interior better than the black one.

Edit: Nevermind I'm color blind. Thats a Tan color.

Thanks for the info. Was it only on certain models? I've seen several w203 with ash interior and they all had black steering wheels. I assumed that was the only available.

Thank you Estuardo for sharing the additional picture I requested.

I thought I noticed something different about your center console. Apparently in Guatemala, the cars have an interior motion sensor security system that can be deactivated by the user. Notice the button underneath the tow-away prevention alarm button. In the United States, we usually only have the tow-away deactivation button.

Something special that Guatemala has that isn't seen in some other markets.

The way the dollar is going, we'll very likely be seeing much higher prices in the near future. Foreign Mfg's won't be able to keep absorbing the costs of doing business with declining dollars.

Nice car BTW. Nice pics too.

Doesn't matter if I'm a newbie or not to determine that you have no class. Go back to your parents' basement now, pick up a 7th grade spelling and grammar book, maybe you'll learn something.
