It's here!

My baby finally has arrived! (See signature for options, present and future mods). I snapped these pre-delivery pics this afternoon while lurking around in the dealer's parking lot (New Country Motors, Hartford, CT).

Hope to get car delivered at the latest by Friday. I can't wait!!!!!!

Will post post-delivery pics in due course.
Cheers!
Martin-

P.S. Don't know how to post pics in sequence. Sorry.

Where's the star?

I guess they dont put them on until at the dealer? I see in your sig that you plan on putting on a flat hood badge.. have the dealer put them on now so you'll have a "virgin" upright star to keep

Yeah, the star is in the trunk until it gets to the dealer. Some dealers don't put it on until the car it is sold. I guess this is for dealers where there is a high chance of getting it stolen.

That's true. Both New Country MercedesBenz and BMW are located in the "lovely" North End of Hartford and, yes, stars have been stolen in the past.

It always blows my mind how this dealership does not have anybody patrolling the area around at night!

Mighty nice car!

I have to ask if you had requested for those rims or those are default on the C240, States side. I was under the impression that it came with a basic hubcap and not alloys – those look like the ones from a C320; correct me if I am wrong. Very nice lights (4 Matic also). When I picked up my car the star was added on at the very end – on a footnote. How much extra did you pay for the 4 Matic? Got too tell me if its worth it or not

Those are the standard rims for 240's and 320's.

As far as 4matic, it may be different in Canada. But look at the difference in base prices. In the US, the 4matic base price includes 4matic and automatic transmission. So that will help you see what the difference is.

Question

Would it be possible to retrofit a steering wheel of an SL to a C? Those SL steering wheels look so good.

i think its would be really expensive because you'd have to buy a new airbag as well.
