Here it is-

I like it, but doubt we will get them here soon if ever

 

And, if we DO get it, I bet ya we will only have a choice of either one of the two six cylinders, and maybe, and this is a big maybe, one of the four cylinders. I really doubt we would get the CDI.

 

i saw a white 1 today (in france)... i think itll look VERY nice if well modded...

 

300 or 350. Maybe with lots of luck the 63. They couldnt get CDI's selling in US even when gas was almost $5. Diesel fuel is much more expencive

 

It's nice & looks better in the flesh than photos. I drove one the other day. The only pity is that it's built on the W203 platform & not the W204. It feels a generation old.

 

Glyn,

Would you be able to get the Tail Lights for one of those?
I think those lights would fit our coupe, sweet.

Somebody abroad PLEASE get me a set of those Tail Lights?

I really like that Hatch Back Lid better than ours, looks more modern and seems to finish off the rear end much more.

 

no they wont fit.. at least i dont think so..
and yes glynn they look much better in person..

 

I would but they wont fit. There are no common body parts I'm told

 

I see the front fenders being different and the rear hatch being different, but i think from the pictures that the tail lights would work?

 

Looks to me like the turn signal and the spoiler are 2 separate pieces now.

 

I find it hard to believe that a stock C230 coupe runs 10.9 at 125 mph.

Maybe 10.9 mpg at 125 mph. And that's if you are delimited.

 

.....prolly not

Americans tend to not buy hatches.....with a few obvious exceptions

 

haha forreal

 

Hey you guys have to admit, it got your attention!

 

pshek whats ur 0-60 ?
ur car is very wisely modded

 

I ordered my C200K CLC Coupe in September this year, should be arriving in late Feb. to early Mar. 2009. Indeed I do think the car looks alot better in the flesh compared to the media press kit photos.

 

Hey Jason,

Sweet, you guys are lucky being able to buy the cool European cars.
May be you can check out the Rear Turn Signals to see if they could be used on the earlier cars?

Thanks,
Dave

 

we've had them for a short while now over here I cna ask whether they fit if you want ... sir does your stock C class run 10.9 or is it my old habit of misunderstanding signatures ??

 

The tail lights should fit. they're only made to look like they won't fit the older coupe. BUT you would probably need the new hatch as well as the top section of the light doesn't have the curve/kink like the old one.

the door and the quarter panel looks unchanged to me (the trims on the door is evident). so if you get all the new front fender, hood, headlights, and front bumper AND tail lights, rear bumper and the hatch you can probably bolt it on without any problem.

 

if we do get a mercedes hatch..it'll probably be something below the c-class. Something to compete against the 1-series. I know mercedes is still debating whether to bring in a sub c-class or not to the US.

 

it would be hard to sell in the US and they already announced that there won't be amg version of the coupe.
AYA ! too bad.

 

or just rewire the lights and paint the top part to make it look like it

 

the rear diffuser looks nice... hmm... looks as if it may fit on our older cl203's too... hmm
