Very nice looking car!!!!! & pix Fattysnax! Have you ever thought about removing the lower door trim?

Real jealous of you Canadians Cosworth, showing off with your C350 4Matics.... Real Nice otherwise, but very jealous...indeed (Is that a cell-phone pic?)

PS: Although we own a new W204, there's still something about the previous front end design I like better. Better proportions, better line flow with the eyelid headlights... they're better looking and suited to the car, their larger size fits with the grille height, and the front bumper isn't as pronounced as my 2012, it just looks like it "belongs" with the design, as the designer intended it to be.

Thanks MBRedux,

I took that with my Blackberry about 24 hours after I drove the car off the lot. I have been all over the internet and I have to tell you...I didn't know that the C350 only came in rear wheel drive.

So I was not surprised that I was able to purchase it as 4-Matic... but it's an option now so that is a good thing as it really puts the powerful 300+hp to the ground.

What part of the US are you from? You can always just come over the boarder and purchase a C350 4-Matic.

Actually I thought of that, but MBUSA strongly discourages this practice. I can't remember exactly what it was, but they have some kind of road block.

So we ended up with a C300 4Matic.

Thx MBRedux! I am thinking about removing the lower trim. I actually have a bit of damage on my left rear passenger door right near that lower chrome trim. If I remove the trim, the damage will look more obvious, which means it will force me to stop procrastinating and get it fixed at a body shop!

Btw I agree with your thoughts on the new head light. I like the blacked-out housing but there's a weird "kink" to the upper edge of the lens that makes the shape awkward. I like the mildly refreshed rear end though.
