New Member Intro
Hey everyone; just want to introduce myself and comment what a wealth of info and great cars MBWorld is. Thanks for sharing!
I used to have a 2003 Audi A4 3.0, but unloaded it after it was constantly in the shop. I went a year without a car until 2010 when I bought a new VW Golf 2.5; great car, beautiful craftsmanship and parts quality, but it always left me yearning for something along the lines of the A4 I loved.
This December the Golf was flipped for a 2012 C250 Sport. After being around my parents' 2007 335, 2010 IS250, my Audi, the Golf, and having test driven the new 335, I can earnestly say this C250 is the best car I've ever driven. Although it doesn't have the high performance limit of the 335, it matches it nearly so in most daily situations but maintains this vault-like security and plushness that I suppose makes a Mercedes-Benz so. The beautiful styling, parts and build quality, and plethora of equipment is something I appreciate very much.
Subtle feature I love best: halogen cornering lamps at night!

No mods planned as of yet, although I'll likely get OZ Superturismo wheels at some point - they remind me of one of my favorite race cars, the CLK DTM, circa 2002.
Thanks again!
