Unless the car was an ED, I don't understand it, the Euro plate. $.02

In any case, nice car. AT or MT?

you should get rid of the Euro plate. unless it's a real german/euro imported car..... otherwise, it's kind of Ghetto...

lots of people have done the us plate over the euro plate mod. it's just for looks. however, it doesn't look as good on the w204 as it does on the w203
