C230 C-Coupe
For that kind of money he could buy a brand new:

BMW M3 Coupe,
CLK Coupe,
Porsche Boxster.

Instead he has a wierd looking Chevy Cavalier.

C230 Sports Coupe
Ok so a Mercedes might not be designed with modding in mind. Or at least the designers didnt think so. but its there car to do as they wish. Heck the internet wasnt designed to be a world of **** either, but I think it turned out ok

If people want to spend money on there cars, wings, CF hoods, more power to them. Just cause they aren't the way you are doesn't mean its wrong. Just be open to changes

I spent over $28,000 in mods on my last car that was only worth $8,000 on its own. I realized I made a mistake, but I sold the car part for part (mods) and made almost all my money back (I didn't pay retail for the parts). I already sunk $6,500 in mods to the Coupe and I had it only 1 week before I began to mod. On my last car 99% of my mods could not be seen from the outside...ie, no rice.

I just ran a search for a few typical ricer terms, "carbon fiber," "neon", "playstation," etc.

The neon pic is a C230.

No shortage of material on this site!

Haha.. I know matt Teske. I used to have a J-body (Cavalier) about 5 years ago, this kid has had so many paint jobs on his car, body kits, different leather, my company gave him gauges a very long time ago.

I would have never believed that RICE can be associated to MB, after seeing these pics... I think I prefer STOCK.
