New Sports Package

A supposedly new sports package is avaliable for the C Sedan in Australia. Have any of U bought one of these? 17 inch 5 spoke rims with, 17 inch brake calipers, lowered, sports interior with sports seats, special steering wheel & chrome exhaust. Any pics of yours?

Sport Package

Looks Nice

May be this is what we should expect when the rumored facelift takes place in 2004???

Get the interior inbrown and the seats look like my wife's Louis Vuitton Bag ... MB - LV edition (just like the Lexus Coach edition) hehe

Agreed...however I don't think either car works well with any cloth with a pattern...

it looks like the rims that are on the apearance package on the CLK320. which kind of remind me of the lorinser RS6 wheel. which i am dying to get.

maybe this will be the rims coming up on the facelift.

I have visited 2 dealers looking at the 2004 Sport Sedans, have not seen one with the 3 spoke steering wheel like the Coupe's. Looks like the rest of the world gets the 3 spoke wheel.

Now is the aluminum trim like the C32 or like the Coupes?

Those wheels come standard on 2004 C320 sport sedans only, 2004 C230 sport sedan still gets the C7 wheels.

You need to go into the feature section and look at the description. The pics sre carryovers. But then again, MBUSA has been known to be incorrect more times than not.
