if u could go for a c280 same engine as the current c300's have some pretty decent power. reasonably more powerful than a 230 or 320 only thing is i havent seen a sport c280 only in luxury i believe. ive been driving mine daily since 06 and its awesome so glad i choose it over the 230

Arghh! what BS.
The only thing rare about the 05 320 Sport is that it was the run out of the M112 engine & 5 speed auto transmission & should have the facelift interior/exterior but in US might not. Manual transmission is all that would make it rare & the MT sucks.
The M112 engine/722.6 5 speed auto transmission combination is one of the toughest Benz has produced in the modern era. I have seen many do a million Kilometres.

MBWorld Fanatic!
There are scant few 2005 C320 Sports here in the US. They are face-lifted inside and out. I think he took what I said about being rare the wrong way. It's like the C350 6MT. There just aren't that many of them. Doesn't make them more valuable necessarily.
