Hey guys I just got my 2005 C230K two days ago. Black on black leather, textured aluminum trim, 6 speed short throw manual, driver's seat package, heated seats, sun roof package. They're making my first month's payment plus 2 years of service. MSRP $33,040, Invoice $31,178, my price $31,177
I love it so far!

ctC230K

thanks! actually the 323 is fern green metallic, even more rare.
the c230k they had all the way in back of the dealership hiding behind 6 cars and they wanted to move it off their lot so they gave me a great deal.

nice, looks awesome! i say keep the stock rims. i dont like the look of the 19's, way to big IMO.

I agree. Its a nice car, and the 5spoke SS rims are one of MB's nicest designs to date. Put some money in the hamster.

Damn...I miss winter. And the snow. And the smell of the brisk winter air. And the sound of trains.

But since we're talking about cars, nice car.

thanks

So you only paid 31,177 OTD?, Damn that is a great price and they threw in free service for 2 years? Thats awsome. I agree, i like the stock rims as well. Congrats and welcome.

i just leased my 05 c230 k... same car except orion blue on grey interior.... what is all this talk on services? so far i only took it in for the first service whcih was completely free... the rest i have to pay for? i heard for a new car, lease the services are free.... any comments? sorry if im a newbie

I think the first year of service normally comes with a new car, service includes basic stuff like oil changes. Warranty covers stuff that breaks and that's for 4 years. I think an oil change after the first year is like $100.

Very nice, Black on Black is very nice. I see you need those heated seats in that snow. The 2005's don't have free service from the factory, but some dealers give away the oil change for the first year. You did OK on the price, but you put $1,652 in the dealers pocket, plus the difference between 0.9 and the APR shown on your contract. A maintenance plan for your car for four years is $1,312. If you get a satisfaction survey from DaimlerChrysler you might carry it in and ask the dealer to toss in the plan if you mark all excellent on the survey.

ctC230K

hmm good idea! do 2005 models usually come with one year maint included or zero maint?

revstriker

I am pretty sure this is a dealer add on.

I know if I were a dealer, with the discontinuation of included maintenance, I would be selling people a 4 year maintenance plan up front.

Another vote FOR the stock 17's! You can use the wheel money to get another 20 HP with the Kleeman performance kit!

awesome kit, i will definatly get that eventually. one problem, i looked at their distributors and none of them in my area even list the c230k kleeman kit on their website. anyone know where to buy it and how much it goes for?
thanks

I just called my Kleemann dealer yesterday (also happens to be the dealership I bought my MB from) and they quoted me $2100USD installed.

ctC230K

oh snap, for just some pulleys and a chip?!? i could do that myself, what do the parts cost like $1k at the most??
