sorry for cross post, but you coupe owners are aware of this, right?

Awww, the 3 series and Accord coupes had a baby. It's adorable!

Slushbox only? Oy.

I wish Americans valued hatches more. And no, I don't care how ugly you may think the ccoupe's rear end is.

You will find similarities every so often and it cannot be avoided with every manufacturer offering more and more different model lines.

For example, that 45 degree angle on the rear coupe window you will also find on a BMW.

Honestly, a black C350, with the red leather, some tinted windows, nice wheels, CF diffuser and quad exhaust will definitely draw some attention. Same mods on cars listed above won't look anywhere as good IMO. A certain style dedication is missing for those.

That tall butt makes for excellent space in the back.

I should take a picture some time of my car fully loaded, and the
resulting massive pile of stuff that fits in it.
People who see me unloading, are like, where do you put all that stuff?
And that's before I even put the racks on.
Yeah, too bad to MBUSA hatch is a bad word.
C230 hatch is the nicest car of it's kind.
Even the car mags who didn't like the car that much,
even said, if a small hatch was what you were after, this was as good as it gets.

Of course when you add leather, pano, wheels, pulley, header, suspension, bix and brakes it's even MO better.

I got excited seeing that there was going to be a 6.3 option for that baby. I won't spend money to buy the car new, but in a few years, hellz yeah I'll be looking for a used low mileage SeaMonster....yeah, I already came up with the name. I'd debadge too. With any luck the value of those cars will fall like a rock like our cars did.

When I got the BMW, I had no idea there was a new C Coupe coming out. So, regardless of how much I want, I have to wait for the end of my lease.

I love the new design - I even like how they managed to pay homage to the classic C7 Rims...

REALLY can't wait for the AMG build!

Gotta love the resale of AMGs... I do like the hatch, but with the 6.3 under the hood,i think i'll have to make an exception!
