Talking New Member, New Ride!
Hi All,

I've been reading the boards the past few weeks (while car shopping) and decided to splurge on an MB!

Everyone seems VERY helpful here and has some nice looking rides. But anyway, I hope I don't catch too many of those "mod" bugs

Here's my baby ('03 C230 Kompressor) and got a great price for her as well:

Thanks for all the compliments guys!

I'm sooooooo tempted to push this thing to its limits. I am in the process of swapping cars with the 'wifey' to make sure it's broken in properly.

What's the first mod I should get?!?
