hi i'm new, my mom might get a c320 or a used clk430 and it'll be mine in a few months. i was kinda hoping for a bmw but looks like she can't be convinced but anyways, what are the advantages of the 320 over the 230? much difference? and can you put monoblocks on a c class? those are my most favoritest amg wheels in the whole wide world

oh and nice site, this car is soooooooo nice i want a mb now lol

 

thanks alot guys, but i meant the difference over the c320 and the c230 4 door or at least i think its a 230. And another question, does mercedes only make automatics for the c?


thanks

 

ah, that's why i wanted clarification...

the older c230 4 door sedan (also a kompressor i believe)? or the new c240 sedan?

most mbs are automatics. you can get manual C230k sportcoupe, c240 sedan and slks.


mb-bob, i added the D-rings in trunk standard for the sportcoupe

 

mmmmmm, you gotta tell us what we're comparing, the W202 C230 Kompressor sedan to the W203 (MY2001+) C240 or C320?

Please ask mommy and get back to us.

Young, I'd like my D-rings fried, please.

 

hey dis is one of those stupid questions .. wat's a d ring.. and what does it look like?

 

D-rings are in the trunk and are used as tie-downs.

Hope this helps.

ah those rings.. that's wat they are called....

hahahaha duh......

 

sorry about that i mean the c240 not the coupe

 

just curious how old are u?

 

get the C320 with the sport package, you'll save a heap in insurance and speeding tickets, and it actually drives a lot better than the CLK.

but WTF do I know, I bought a BMW.

 

LOL...Self bashing by the BMW guy. I like it!!

 

I've been trying to cut down on drinking a soda in the morning, but it's not a big will-power thing with me, so I've decided to let the fates play a role. Here's how it works...

On the drive to work each morning, I check out the first BMW 3-series I see. If a guy is driving, I will treat myself to a soda. If a girl is driving, I promise to drink a glass of water instead.

I thought this morning would be a cola day, 'cuz a very nice, freshly washed, black 330ci convertible (top up) blasted past as my first Bummer sighting. After noting to myself, "there's gotta be a dude in that one" I bided my time as the inevitable traffic jam allowed me to catch up... drat, a girl (again)!

I started this on Monday, and I've had only one soda all week.

 

You might as well give up soda in the morning!!

 

And here we have it, folks, absolute proof that BMW's are girlie cars.

 

you all suck.

 

oh come on now lol, i'm 17 and dasmafia are you on dtmpower?

 

Does a bear $%!t in the woods?

 

wha

 

LOL

 

mmmmmmmm... Das doesn't need me to speak for him, but YES, he tells us frequently he's a forum member at dtmpower. Um, I wouldn't be surprised to find he's a founding member, actually...

 

actually Bob, I only post in one section at DTM, and that is the mid-west meetings and gatherings section. for some reason, a bunch of the members over their don't think I'm funny?

I'm a Moderator at bimmerforums.com though... maybe thats what you were thinking.

bob, it seems to me that we are a whole lot more alike than either of us ever wants to admit... your sense of sarcasm is unreal, it makes reading this forum worthwhile.

 

Dude, I've always enjoyed your posts, just not wild about your taste in cars...especially when you were nearly into an MB but then got lured to the "dark side." It all means that you can be won over, eventually.

John closed your other thread about the S-Class flame, so I couldn't post there. I hope they're not taking your butt to the wood shed over that one. I thought the other guy was way out of line with his name calling (I reported him to the moderators, myself). We all know you're not gay. Well, you do drive a girlie-mobile Z3, but... (sorry, couldn't resist. My bad.) Later, friend.

 

Although he has been takin by the darkside, the force is still within him and in time he will return. Too funny... I would go for the C320 also... much nicer and the beefier six will move a bit quicker and feel a bit nicer than the smaller six. But if you want a manny tranny, then go for the C240. From what I hear, it takes a bit of time to break in, but once it does they are nice. Fuzzo is selling his so I cant use him as a reference, but there are lots of others here that can give you some input. Fuzzo, you are not going to the other side also, are you? LOL

 

thanks bob... I'll be back (if they ever build an AWD C-class, I'll be a member for life!) just to keep you sated... MBs I lust after daily:

CLK55 (coupe)
E430 4matic (sport)
C230K C7, C5, K2a
S600
'70 230SL (or is it a 280?)

 

thanks were going for the 320, and no ones answered my question about 18" monoblocks amg
