C230K
my 2005 c230 just came into the dealer.
Just drove by last night and saw my baby sitting in the back lot with the tape and everything on it, i was told it wouldn't come for another 2 weeks, but i know this is mine, has all the same options and was told it was rare, so it has to be it. Going down there today, but normally how long will the dealer have it to clean up run diagnostics etc. before ic an pay and pick it up?/ thanx Chris
I will post picks asap when i get it

WELL, i don't like to think of the probe has a ford, rather a mazda with some ford body panels!!!haha(i really hate fords, guess its ironic) but anyways, the benx will be the daily driver. It will have priority over the probe but driving a car as modded as the prbe gets annoying (3 inches off the ground sucks ***!!)
As to mods, i'm gonna get that new cl star grill first, then i'm gonna look at a small sub, prolyl 10, and get a custom enclosure made so it takes up as little room as possible, nothing that really thumps, just something that sounds really good for hip hop/rap music. Then i'll prolly get some 18's maybe 19's, but i'm sure i would haev to lower it so it looks right, and i don't really want to sacrifice the ride that much since this will be my daily driver for a long time!
Just got back from the dealer, i shoudl be able to pick it up on tuesday!! Can't wait later Chris

Well just one bit of advice...I used to have an eclipse spyder on 19's prolly like 2" off the ground, comparing the ride of that car to my semi slammed C on 19's is like comparing night to day, there is a HUGE difference! These cars are ment to have 18+ diameter wheels man, the ride doesnt suffer that much.
