C300 4MATIC (w204)
Another Arctic White

Hey everyone! I've now entered the darkside (previously owned a Lexus). I just picked up my Arctic White c300 4matic sport and I must say the w204 is absolutely awesome!

...just had the windows tinted yesterday.

Very cool
What % tint did you get?
Just curios on what made you decide getting a 4matic when you live in Vegas?

The tint is 5% all around except for the windshield. The dealer wanted $300 to tint the windows, so I asked the tint guy if he wanted to do it on the side. He ended up charging me only $160! He even did it at the dealer, while I waited in the waiting room, eating all the free food! lol

I got a 4Matic so I can go skiing in Utah.

nice car!

Hey, how come everyone finds the most ghetto places they can to take their photoshoots?

Ive seen them under the bridge, industrial areas, closed down factories, haunted houses, etc... how about some big baller pics, like in front of a mansion, or a resort!!? Or maybe i just dont get it... i realize there is contrast, maybe to make the car look even better than it already is?

Um, contrast? If you shoot in front of a really nice place, it competes with the thing of beauty you're trying to shoot. Dang. Makes sense though.

sorry, my run on sentence is confusing. I meant that there is contrast between the ghetto backgrounds & the nice cars. Not between any nice backgrounds & the nice cars. I wanna see some pics with nice backgrounds!
