01` Sportscoupé 220CDI
Talking Today made an wheel upgrade.

First i´ve putted 4 Goodyear eagle tyre´s gs d3 (new eagle), they have a nice design, now i´m going to see if they are really good, how the press says.
The second upgrade, is my wheel were painted with some, i don´t now how to say in english, but i hope that you understand, " polichromed" or black chrome.
I liked it.

I've seen the "black chrome" or gun-metal-like paint being done on a few cars now. It really suits some cars. May help hide the brake dust!

Let us know how those tires do, because the previous goodyear eagle's were crap. Especially the sound. They would start making a lot of road noise long before the tread wears out. So I hope these new ones are much better.

Looks nice. Is your car really a CDI? The exhaust tip is definately not original CDI.

Interesting to see the minor differences between countries, notice no side markers, and in the pic from the rear, the reflective strip around the rear tail light reflects red, not yellow as on my C230.

Bagwell, i would prefer too, a c32 amg, engine than the CDI, but here in Portugal 1 litre of fuel cost +- 1 dollar ,it´s expensive.
While the diesel here cost about 0.65 of a dollar.
And my car is 1 year and 5 months old and it count´s with 81.000 km, i make too many km to drive with the expensive gas.


Freddy that´s not a stock exhaust tip, i didn´like the factory tip so i´ve changed to this one.

white and whiter
i think the side marker is a US and Canada only crap. for US it's because some law requires it, don't know about Can tho.

as for the taillight reflecting yellow or red, mine is red. But i have seen other people with earlier production 02s with yellow reflection.
