2011 C300 1995 Carrera
New Owner

Just purchased this 2011 C300 with 10,500 miles on the clock. Wanted a 6 speed manual and the one that I test drove was not as clean as this car plus the wife really liked the aftermarket 19" TSW wheels. This car has the Premium 1 and the 333 Sport Sedan Package. Driving impression is rock solid as expected and the fit and finish are top quality. My last 2 cars were both manual so still trying to get used to the 7 speed auto. Really enjoy the quiet ride and time will tell about the 19's that are shod in General rubber. Knowing what is expected here are the obligitory pics!

2011's have black housing on the bottom and chrome on the rest. It's not fully chrome, so you end up seeing the black housing in his pic. Enjoy the car, it's a hell of a ride!

Snowmuch, never noticed the black headlight detail until you pointed it out.
Richard2011, the car did not come with the HID light package.
Interesting detail, thanks!
SiriusXM has turned on their signal free for the first few weeks this February so we are enjoying great tunes in the car, may have to subscribe again!
Have ordered parts from Pelican for years and will be changing out the engine air and cabin filter this week, there is quite a bit of good info on this site for some DIY projects that are fast and easy.
