04.5 Black C230K Sport Sedan
New Car

Hey guys, I got my new ride 2 weeks ago. I got an 04.5 black/charchol C203K sports sedan. Heated seats, BiZenons, CD changer, sunroof. I had 4 dealers looking for a car optioned out like this and I believe that Ive got the only one in the U.S right now like this. The best part is that I got the dealer to swap the 5 spoke 04.5 rims for the 7 spoke 04 rims. The car looks awesome! When I drove down to pick it up, it was in the showroom with about 15 other cars and it was getting the most attention from other customers. With the 04 rims on it you can definately tell that the 04.5 is lower than the 04. I got the windows tinted last week and will get a pictue up this weekend.

Congrats! It seems that it is difficult finding a C-Class with xenons.

Congrats on your Purchase bro!

Welcome to the MB family and enjoy your car!

Are you going to mod? maybe some springs to close the gap just a bit more? maybe a tint and W211 mirrors?

Thats good you have the bi xenons, and I would keep the sport wheels. They are starting to grow on me.

Enjoy the Forums.

If your car is a 2003, surely this is not true.

My dealer told me that C-class with bi-xenons usually have to be a special order. Dealers will not stock W203 with bi-xenon because most people are not willing to pay an extra $1000 for brighter, white lights.

2 cars available for sale is different than 2 cars in existence with xenons.

No, I'm saying there were surely more than one that had been sold. But at the time, I guess there's a chance that there were only two available to buy across the country. But I have my doubts about that even.

i couldn't believe there were only 2 available in US at that time... according to the dealer, they did some survey and most ppl didn't really care about xenon option and that's y there aren't many cars available... i could've ordered one from germany, but that's extra $1000 for custom order... bimmers don't charge for that and most 3 series come with xenons... :-( maybe dealer was lying to me so they can sell whatever they have in the inventory instead...
