2001 C240 SPORT or 2004 C230 SPORT?
I have a 2001 C240 Sport Edition, and I'm trying to decide if I should trade it in for the 2004 C230 Kompressor Sport Sedan.
Things I want on new '04 C230 vs. what I have on my '01 C240
- Bi-Xenon lights vs. Regular halogen
- Sun roof and sun shade vs. nothing
- White interior vs. black interior
- Automatic transmission vs. 6 speed
- new warranty vs. extended warranty till '05
Dealer offered $18,000 for my C240, and they wanted $31,000 for the lighting package and the automatic transmission. Is that good.
Let me know what you guys think I should do! Is it worth it to pay that much more for the things I want?

you want a white interior? good luck keeping that clean....!!
I'd stick with black...looks much sportier (IMO) and easier to maintain.

Out Of Control!!
Honestly, I don't see much of a need to upgrade, especially when they're so close anyway. $13k could be used in so many better ways.
Now, if you were going to a different level within MB (E, CLK, etc.), or another marque, it would be more easily rationalized to me.

here. Big difference in price and you are still going to stay in the same class?!!? No way. If you do go E or CLK. If you really are itching to waste that money then MOD IT UP!!!!
