2002 C230 K
I picked "not buy again but recommend."
I'm quite happy with the car. I wouldn't buy another one because I'd get something different, likely a CLK when it comes time to replace the C230K.
Cheers, BT

2002 C230 Coupe Black/Charcoal C5 C7 Auto
i'm 22 and have 3 yrs+ lease on the Coupe. By the time I'm done I'd be 25+. If the dealer treat me nice (i.e not the way they treat me now 
) I'd get the CLK but if not I'm thinking of Porsche Boxter.

Yeah, I'd buy another, if I needed to. Outstanding car, even more outstanding when you consider the pricing. Can't say I'm too interested in any other Benzes except for the CLK and SLK...I'm not into sedans, and even the CLK's auto only is a turnoff.
The C230K was a stroke of genius on the part of MB product planners. Most C230K buyers would never have considered an MB prior to this...and not just because of the price. The SLK is the closest thing in the lineup, and it doesn't have a back seat, something I needed.

Right on !!!
I was within 2 hair width of the G35. Took an obligatory "due diligence" look at the Coupe and got hooked on the spot.

I dont' regret buying the car, but if I get to choose again, I'd probably go with an Audi A4. Similar power figures, but with Quattro for only $4000 more. And cheaper options. Or perhaps a G35, yet another amazingly good deal.
