i'm in the market to purchase another car as a secondary vehicle. my options are down to the facelift w203 2.5 or an 03' to 05' clk320. i don't want to buy a car with more than 60k and i want to spend no more than $16,000 preferrably white or black cars. any suggestions? i'm leaning towards the w209 so more suggestions for that would be nice.

You already have a 203. Get a 209

Yeah im going with Karo on this one. Get a W209, but a 05+ because that prefacelift interior is nasty.

i agree with you guys, that one is pretty nice. if i got black, i'd just make it look like my car as much as possible with the blacked out grill and all. if i got white, i'd do the vinyl roof and black badges. i do not want to spend more than 16k, i found some sweet deals on CL for an 04' and 05' i'm checking one out today.

I went from my second C230 to a CLK 55 and it was a great choice.

i'm not spending too much money on it because it'll also be driven by my 16 year old sister (she already drives around my c55 lol)

i ended up buying a nicely loaded 2006 e90 325i with 43k for $14,700.

this might hang your mouth open but I bought my 2007 C230 with 37K miles on it for 16,500. But anywayz what is your purpose for a 2nd car? You ever thought about maybe trading in your W203 and getting a nicer car with the money you are about to use to buy another vehicle and just get a beater car for work/commute?

you got a pretty good deal, open mouth to me is like 12-14k. i bought this bmw for my sister for the most part, but when she's not driving it, i'm driving it. i'll never buy a beater car. ever, ever, ever, ever. i see no use for them.
