I like this color a lot more.
It's summer and this year I have nothing better to do but shower my w203 in some new clothes and shower :p

Installed new sport bumper + front lip + projector fog still need to add the bumper grilles and headlight washer cap. Really like it over the stock look.

im pretty sure its 2005, as it had the facelift headlights as stock also got this from mb dealer in Canada (which is really just MB cos they dont have any independent MB dealer here) and it was advertised as an 05, not sure about the rear bumper diffs... maybe the cheapo model (that i have) might be in this way?

just fyi...the rest of the world doesn't come with AMG it standard vs USA.
it's a classic trim given the door handle is not painted.

Hi Frank, thanks.
i didnt think it was classic cos in Canada all classics came with a badge and also the sun roof, since mine came with neither i just thought its just good ol C230 base model (as they sell the base model up here) not sure if they did in the U.S. but even if they did the base model u guys normally have is way better equipped than ours... i tried to buy a silver 07 c230 sport but to import it into canada was such a hassle, had to call mercedes canada first to get approval then i had to get the dash replaced etc.. so wasnt worth it in the end i found this base model that had all that i wanted minus the 2007 rims and spoiler (front/rear) at the price of 22k CAD (3 years ago) and a mileage of only 70,000Km (not miles) so its a good deal plus from the stealership so they checked it out before i even got it.. but no its not AMG just the replica bumper (which i got here from Gary ) i think he has a store or something... didnt quite fit nicely but we made it work

found out from MB here... the modeling is a bit different in names...
mine is just the base sport sedan, then classic sport sedan then you have elegance sport sedan. the Avantgarde model was a U.S. model (but equivalent to the elegance sport sedan in Canada) so basically you're right but just move the models up a level or in my case down a level but basically same thing... just different name... so our classic model is your elegance model in the U.S.... wierd i wonder why they would do it that way..

I think it will look really nice if you wrapp the roof, plus it will be easier considering that you don't need to cut out around the sun roof. I have some pics of my pewter c230 with my roof wrapped on my build thread, the links in my signature if you'd like to check it out
