I dared to criticize how he opened up the site to sheet-talking kids who added nothing but drama to the site. When the site started, it had a real enthusiast feel to it, but to get more traffic, for more ad dollars I thought, I recall he allowed an influx of any MB person. The site went to crap and I was not quiet about it. One day, my login just stopped working.

Why doesn't this site have a Coupe subforum for the 203? The 204 has one, but not the SportCoupe?

The asshat original owners of MBW thought that there weren't enough differences to warrant a separate subforum.

The facelifted interior in that coupe just gave me an idea
To bad they didn't keep producing the coupes after 2005, it would have been nice to have more face lifted parts available here in the US.

As did all our logins eventually. Actually I don't recall he ever had ads.
And shortly after he shut down his site, internet brands bought MBW for
gawd knows how much. They own every word I'm typing right now. ha.

Terry turned the site back on, hoping for a sale, but without any content.
He wouldn't turn it over to any of the members. Once he lost interest in his sportcoupe, he saw no reason to continue the forum. Members and content be damned.
Don't get me started. So much content down the drain.
Still you have to be the only person I ever heard of who got banned from their.

'02 C230 Coupe (Me) '03 SLK320 6MT (Wife)
My guess is that is a stock 2005 C320 6-speed SportCoupe that had reared damage and got repaired with the C230 badge. I am sure that happens in Europe as well as with body shops in the U.S.

Very pretty though...for some reason I really like that color too. . And I really think the 320 6MT would be fun in the Coupe. And I like the sound of it in the SLK...don't know if the Coupe sounds different.
