VoyagerDude. I heard you got your new ride, congratulations... How do you like your's. Where did you buy it from in Calgary?? Mine is still put away for winter in the garage. I will take it out in April i think.

Also thanks for the info on european specs. I will check out european web sites.
Hi Iceman,

Sorry, it din't want to post to the same thread.

Yes I got mine last Friday, and so far it's been wonderful. Put some winter tires on it, in case we get snow here and just taking it easy for now. Gotta break it in properly.

The thing I don't get is why they put the rear speakers in the doors too? There seems like there's enough room in the C-pillars.

I got the car from Hyatt Auto Gallery, from Jonathan Hughes. He was very nice and professional, even though he mentioned to Mrs. VoyagerDude that I broke all the records of calling about the status of my order.

Have fun in April with your C230, maybe we can organize a local C-coupe get together sometime, if you and Yellow Fly Red are up to it.

Glad you like your C230... They are sweet cars. I sold my 12 sec. mustang Gt to get this car in my driveway. I will play around with mods this summer. I just can't leave it stock. The first thing that will go is the stock filter. Then i will try to get a smaller pulley for the S/C.. Then to the track at RACE CITY SPEED WAY to see what this thing can muster 1/4....

I think there is another obsidian black in town like mine. I see it all the time but don't know who is driving it. He drives like a crazy man. I wonder if all C230 driver's drive like they stole it.

If my wife lets me, i will have a 75HP nitrous in there... Or NOT!!!!

later....

It'd be interesting to see, what you do to your car Maybe gain some useful knowledge.

So far around I've seen a Silver Evo in September on 4st Street, a crazy green on 17th Ave last month and a Silver with steel winters just recently in downtown.
So it's still very rare you see one of these around here.

Nitrous, huh? What would the service dept. say when they see it I wonder

Hi Guys....!!!

Iceman,
I gotta check out your car once you got the Pulley installed....
can you go for a 1/4 mile run Stock first... and then with the Mod?
I want to see the difference....... I really want to do the pulley Mod or the Upsolute chip upgrade... but I am afraid to ruin my warrenty..... but I would love to see the mods on your car... and I can hook up with you guys anytime after 5:00PM when I get off from work.


So far, I've seen the Orion Blue C230 (driven by a girl), a Black C230 ( at Pandamonium), 2 Silver ones (this is a popular color), a RED one that was behind me and honking at me... I didn't know until I turn off and check at the rear view mirror.

Mine's WHITE... =)
will Tint the windows in the Spring....
