4- Work on interior,and do system
5- Body kit
6- performance mods

If I were you I'd work on performance first because that is probably where the car is lacking most. It all depends on what is more important to you. You could definitly make it look really nice pretty easily but do you want it to be more powerful as well.

Get rims and springs first. If you want performance, then the only thing that can really increase your HP and Torque significantly is the Kleemann supercharger (probably around 9k after install). And for the cosmetic or performance issue, I think if you want performance then you should just get an amg at the first place.

about the mods, this is what I did:
1. tint, 2. cupkit, 3. bodykit, 4. exhaust, 5. rims, 6. H.I.D.
future mods: subs, TV..
I am not planning to do any performance mod since it's not gonna make any big difference.. well, except Kleemann suprecharger which is out of my budget. (You can PM brabusCclass, his car has the Kleemann supercharger installed)
btw, MB Bob, are you relate to MB-Bob?

I'd do the following.
Springs, swaybars, bigger wheels, Bi-xenons, interior mods (sound system, Comand, etc..) then body kit.
Go for Cupkit or even Coilover if money permits.
As for engine mods, theres nothing you can do much to add more power for your C240 apart from getting Kleemann supercharger (certainly not friendly on your bank account
, you'd be better off getting a C320 instead I think).
