here's my car



still showing the rear end with CG rims as I'm working on the front

so far I have done the most inexpensive mod
de-chrome linings and trunk bar, added the brabus inspired rear taillamp fitting
converted from chrome to black.

I plan on adding the C63 inspired front grille with evosport sidelamp conversion with palladium silver.

and further more
Brabus full body kit with carbon fiber 3 piece spoiler
Brabus 20" monoblock s double spoke design (silver or carbon black)
AMG C63 brakes and suspension kit or BRABUS sports suspension W 204 with AMG C63 brakes.
final goals are to make it look Bullitish

Tomek, yes classic but few AVG ornaments installed (grill, trunk chrome lip, window chrome lips, etc..) . Here new C is very difficult to order. I mean limited series, and gotta wait for more than 6months. I was lucky to have a friend working at local Daimler. So, can have mine in 1wk but classic model. Few mods are still coming but gotta wait till goods arrived..

Here's mine...

She's a C300 Avantgarde with sports package (as defined in Japan) in Carneol Red / Barolo Red. <Note the absence of side marker lights.>







Here's a pic of the LED eyelids as supplied by the dealer (a matter of some controversy on another site).



I welcome questions / comments.

Thanks for the warm welcome. My wife wanted a distinctive look, so we ordered that color. I didn't tell my wife, but I saw a C250 yesterday in the same color. As far as my dealer knows, we have the only car in that model / color in the Nagoya area. The LEDs also add a bit of distinction.

We absolutely love this car! (We chose it over the CLS because of its size. In Japan, it's often better to have a smaller car. We also considered the C63, but the cost difference is substantial, especially since taxes are calculated here according to engine size.)

I couldn't imagine driving anything larger than an E-Class in Japan
especially the local roads.

LED from the supplier?? from Mercedes? do you have a product code? lol
I really wished US dealers would pay close attention to detail. the service there is outstanding!

Yeah, it can get dicey sometimes maneuvering my Grand Cherokee through the TINY side streets.

Regarding the LEDs, I'm gonna try to find the option sheet the dealer showed me so I can get that info to others here. It seems there's a lot of interest. Wish me luck...

Well, I don't know how much the GTRs go for here, but I like the C class better, anyway. I'm actually from the US, but came here for a job and stayed to start a family.

I went to see the GT-R's at the Ginza Main building as well as the gallery
the retail there is Y7,770,000.

great car but the moment I put my hand on the wheel, It really felt like a car form a video game. everything felt VR rather than reality.
