From what I keep seeing on the forum there won't be a 2003 C230. They say it will be replaced by a 2003 C180. This may be the last chance to own a C230. Some 2003 models have already come out. Last year the C230 came out on August 1st although a few people got it in late July. The C sedans came out a month later in September.

It seems that the 2003 will still be called the C230k even if it has the 1.8 liter engine. Someone posted that the 2003's go into production in August, so if that is true, it would be early September before they are at the dealers.

It has almost the same hp, but torque will be less. On the other hand, it will have better fuel economy, and because it has balance shafts, it will be smoother. The price, if it changes, will only go up.
