am ordering this baby around august/september

ScottyGams

awsome! its almost the COMPLETE opposite of my car! I am going to be ordering my car around september as well...

I want a C300 Sport with 6 speed manual, 18" AMG rims and the AMG body kit. Beyond that maybe the multimedia package, I really want the sound system but don't want the nav so that makes it a pretty expensive option for me.

C300 comes in a Sport Package as well? I though it was only for the C350

MercedesFTW

Can I get a 63 in wagon form?

ScottyGams

yes, 300 comes with sport package, but the 7 speed automatic tranny will cost extra...

and Multimedia package will only be $2800 apparantly (or roughly $30 added to your lease). Considering what you get, I consider it a pretty good deal!

C-63 w/ factory pick-up.

Remonster

Yeah I'd probably lease it so if I pitch it as $30 more a month, I might be able to get the multimedia package too but its no biggie to me, the looks of the car are more important which is why I want the AMG bodystyling and rims.

I'm also not a huge fan of automatics so I'm glad it costs extra because I can get the manual for cheaper (as usual). Right now I've got one of the ****tiest cars at my school, its 11 years old and even when it was brand new, the 318 was a joke to BMW enthusiasts because of its 1.9L 4 banger (not just due to the horsepower which was rated at 139, but because its a pretty rough engine as well by contrast to BMW's usual smooth inline 6s) but also because its got a massive dent on the side from my friend backing into it with his van and tons and tons of scratches and other dents, enough to make me wait until I go to college to get my C300 because my high school friends have no clue how to not beat the hell out of a car.

That being said, every time I drive my car I couldn't be happier, I mean its slow as hell but driving a BMW manual is pure joy to me.

ScottyGams

dude, that sucks when ANY beamer is considered the ****tiest cars at your school... Nobody is rockin a 88' Ford Escort? Ouch! Good luck with the car, and for once I am glad to see a College kid like myself aspire to MB!

Outland

That escort that was done up on 'pimp my ride' with a M3 front end looked pretty damn good.

ScottyGams

did it go any faster with the badges? sorry couldn't resist...

I am also considering getting keyless entry on my car, just to get this thread back on topic

w212

too bad .. you can't get keyless this year

Remonster

Nah it kicks *** actually, I never have to worry about people messing with my car, it's so dented from the crash (friend backed into me while I was parked in front of his house) and from people climbing into and out of my car from the sunroof and I don't even bother to keep it clean so actually I'm afraid for when I get the new Benz I'll have to have a heart attack every time I take it anywhere, obviously I can't keep the BMW too because insurance on 2 cars is nuts but it would be nice to still have a beater as an everyday car.

ScottyGams

what a life! be sure to get the pre-collision detection! haha...jk

Crustydog

Ordered C280 Avantgarde with AMG package (C300 Sport in US) in Irridium Silver with black leather and alloy trim.

Stormin

I'm going to hold out for a year and see if they get smart and offer the C350 with a 6spd.

I know that the 7spd is a fun automatic, but it's still an auto...
