new c280 owner
Whats up MB world. Im new to the forum with my first mercedes. Its a 2007 c280 4matic. I just picked her up today and I love it. She is completely stock and was very well maintained. Now she is mine and will be subjected to a little molestation lol. Im currently a full time student and part time so my upgrades will come slowly untill I graduate. Nothing to crazy is planned but she will be lowered 1.3 in. In the front and 1.2 in the rear. Eventually id liie to ride on vossen cv3s, hid headlights, leds in the city lights, replace the interior l8ghts with brighter leds, swap the grille and put in a better radio. I dont think thats too bad of a starting list. Here is a few pics of my car.

Hey thanks man. Yea this car was a steal. The car is 8 really good condition. I need to repair the back bumper but other than that it's a solid car and I love it. I wish I had the money now to start some upgrades. That's quite a bit to ask for an 03 class lol

Welcome fellow NJ resident! It's a really clean car, love the stock rims it has, interior color is not my cup of tea, but it's super clean as well!
