2005 C230 Kompessor Sport
New owner here, I was able to find a 1 owner lease return 2005 C230 Kompressor Sport with only 19k miles. It looks to be fully loaded with Xenons, Harmon Kardon with 6disc changer, power seats, and sunroof. It was down to this or a 2004 BMW 330i, I think I made the right decision. My mind is spinning with all the mod/upgrade ideas everyone has here.
1st things first, tint, wheels, suspension, and eventually get the system installed. Thanks for all the ideas, I will keep everyone posted. Here is a pic of my C230, and also of my other baby.

You should definitely get a 3/4 slats grille OR maybe CL grille

I couldn't do that. I live in New York City, Manhattan. My rims and tires wouldn't last a day. I had no choice but to go with "17's.
I love the look of yours, I would have to move to do something like that. LOL
Does anyone know the model of the amplifier located in the trunk of the 2002 c240's ?

I know someone here in Toronto that drives a white E30 coupe dumped and custom old style wheels with step lips (Either BBS/smthelse). I'm pretty sure he has an E30 M3/a bigger engine too, can't recall it. Maybe you know him

He told me he paid more for the wheels than what he paid for the car years ago

Our Basic Transportation
Hi Guys and Gals,
We had an SLK, but it just wasn't practical.
My hubbiE bought me a C230 for my birthday, and added a few lil' mods.
We call her Beauty.
His car is a street/track supercharged m3 (big brakes, suspesion, etc)
We call her Beast.
Glad to find this place :-)

love the look
do they come in 19in and will they fit a c55 amg without the use of spacers?

Finally settled on the Brabus Monoblock VI reps in 18x8.5 up front with a 1 inch lip and 18x9.5 in the rear with a 3 inch lip.
I did the blackout in the inlays, what a nightmare!!!!
Tires are Sumitomo 225/40's up front and 255/35's out back. handles tremedeously now and rides better then stock. She Loves it.
