You have an 07 C230 - Thus you have the 2.5L M272 V6 with 201hp.

I'm not Kev but I can confirm that the wipers on his car are the factory ones from the 2004.5 and up cars since I have them on mine. Aerowipers indeed.

2005 C230 Coupe
Love the paint job on the black car. A nice subtle integration of carbon fiber, not too flashy.

I remember searching unsuccessfully a while back, but does anyone know if there are any carbon fiber hoods available for the 2005 C230 Coupes (thinking about it, I guess all U.S. coupes probably have the same hood; year & engine may not matter)?

Thanks
