Question Hello new forum...and a plea for a C32 Coupe?

Hi to all, the new forum is a little different but i reckon we will all grow to love it!

Now for my question to you all?

What about starting a petition to MB to make a C32 Coupe?

we know they wont make a c320 coupe as it would steal sales from the CLK but why not a C32 - a niche model in its self would not really cause them a headache.... and what a car it would be?

In the meantime, why not dump a new Kompressor in the current C-Coupe. For a mere $17k, you can have your cake and eat the C32...too!

Smile Great Idea

I have been thinking that a C32 Coupe would be a good idea. I doubt that I could afford one, but a 350 hp coupe would be great. maybe we could get them to make Amethyst with blue tinted windows an option.

Re: What exactly can i do to my car for 17k?

brabus, carlsson, renntech, kleeman, and various others have everything from chips to pully upgrades to complete engine rebuilds/swaps....

mods i have looked at start at 1.5k and go up to about 18k (renntech 2.6 liter stage 3 engine conversion)

A Kleeman Supercharger will make you VERY happy. In the E55, for example, the mere 7psi unit makes for a hefty upgrade to 550hp!

Cool kleeman...

was going to use nitrous....and a pulley kit...

figured 230bhp with the pulley... then a further 75bhp of nitrous would give 300+ bhp and a much quicker standing quarter....

not to useable on the road though... maybe ony 25bhp of gas on the road?

will the autobox take the strain?
