Still in love.

Washed, waxed and detailed the Benz on Friday. Weather really cooled down today. Roof and windows open, and I feel like I'm experiencing a whole new joy with my C240 4MATIC.

And I have to say, the Brilliant Silver on this car with the chrome is just gorgeous.

I love Mercedes.

I might take some new pics soon.

06 C 350 2014 GLK350
After owning my 2006 C350 for three years, I'm also still in love. I have never had any car that is so satisfying to drive under all conditions.
The 350 engine couldn't be sweeter and the handling of the car is great.
My leather interior and vinyl trim are 100% better looking than the interior of the W204's.
I wanted to buy a W204 luxury model, as other car, my but after having a loaner for four days I realized that it didn't come close to feeling as good as my 06 C350. The 300 engine is ok but once you have spent time with the 350, you simply don't want to go back. Since I don't want the sport suspension ride and they won't offer the 350 engine in the luxury model, I'm just out of luck.
I have even been thinking about looking around for another 06 or 07 C350 since I can't see buying a C300.

Nice to see a couple of Arizonan's on here. We should do a mini-meet/pictures and a drive up north soon.

why don't you just swap suspension components with a C300 driver?
I'm sure there's more than one looking for a sport suspension set up.
