I liked the smoother 1.8L M271, but I've heard people on this board say the older 2.3L M111 is more durable. One didn't seem any quicker than the other to me. I have silver, but that wasn't my first choice. I liked Mars Red best.

03 c320 coupe
Im in lebanon too Kooxs.. theres no amg kit on the 2005 c230, most of the kits you see are made locally, custom made to look like amg's and they are not good quality...
if you're looking for a good mileage, then u should get the 2003 coupe instead of 2002... some will say its less reliable (i have no idea)...
DONT BUY a car without a CARFAX...
i had my c320 shipped from the usa just because nearly all the dealers in here (leb) refused to provide a carfax... so the car could have salvage title, modified mileage and .......
anything else, dont hesitate to pm me...
