2002 C230 Coupe(M111)
There is some BS going on over at C-Coupe bout that. One guy who works at a dealer has been running over at the mouth about it. Its one persons opinion right now. Its silly really.
The oversupply problem right now seems to be something MB created on purpose to float the inventory so they could ramp up the sedan production. They expect to bleed that down.
At current sales levels, the car will still sell something like 11,000 units for the year. That's more than enough considering orginal expectations were 8000 or so. With 160,000 units sold world wide since model launch less than two years ago, it would be foolish to stop building it....any talk of the C-Coupe demise is pure bull**** at this point.
