2003 C 230K Sedan
Talking Dealership had 3 C230K Sport Sedans, now none!

My dealership in the MidWest had three C230K Sport Sedans in stock as of last week (2 auto, one manual).

All three sold by word of mouth (I got mine).

They cant wait to get more in.

Salesman said he does not need to even discount them, as the buyers dont seem to mind the sticker (I worked in a discount from him on mine).

I think these are going to be more popular then even Mercedes thought.

On a side note, I was watching Headline News the other night, and low & behold I see a C230K Sport Sedan TV spot. Its an all slicked up blurred vision of the C230K Sport Sedan ripping down a set of curves to the beat of the music. All you can really make out is the hood badge... Then they print on the screen "its coming, its fast... C230 Kompressor Sport Sedan... Starting at $28,000"

That will sell a few.

These cars will be very popular because people looking at a loaded Camry will be able to get into a MB for just a little more.

2002 C240 6 spd manual
If I didn't think I'd get killed on the deal, I'd trade my C240 6speed for a C230k sedan 6 speed in a heartbeat. Oh well....I can always dream!

How does the price compare to the stripper C240 (hubcaps ! - ) they sell up there?

- BT

EDIT: OK, I looked it up myself. The C240 Classic starts at CDN $38.5K, while the C230K starts at CDN $41.5K.

It may be that people in the Camry frame of mind wouldn't consider MB even if the price was lower! Anyway, we don't want too many C sedans around

I have one of the bargain C Sport Coupes and I hardly ever see any around here. )NYc/NJ metro). Maybe one /week. Didn't see many while I was in Boston either. I see more E and CL models here then Cs anyway.
