Hmmm... looks like I have new destination for my vacation next month and a road trip from Chesapeake ... i'm on the way to help !!!

slowc

just hope theirs no adams apple.

Cillys

too funny

luxgal

Not cool. Where are you guys living? The C300 is such a cool-looking car. How could girls not want to drive that? I love driving it in sport mode. VROOM!

Then after it will be a struggle to find the spring coil or whatever thing you mentioned. Can I get bigger wheels or increase the coil length?

HA HA

Cillys

btw what color is yours inside and out ??

luxgal

I've noticed that since driving this car, guys in trucks seem jealous. They act like they have such a large ego until they see me switch to sports mode and vroom away.

Cillys

Damn that's SEXY !!!!

I wouldn't think Boston would be a place with too many big trucks. Up here, everyone works at the Oil Rigs and they have big jacked up Ford F350s and Dodge 3500s with smoke stacks. Biggest douchbags i know drive them, I don't have many kind words for truck drivers after sharing the roads with the ones up here.

I see most women driving GLs and MLs. My mother personally drives an E but my friends mothers mostly have the SUVs.

I drive the highway often so I see all kinds of cars. Guys in trucks are horrible here. However, I sometimes want to get a truck so I can look cool in one. Can you imagine a girl with long hair and heels driving a truck? That would be so funny. I want to try it.

I'll trade my C-class for your mom's E-class.

Cillys

You are free to drive my '02 Excursion. lol ...

luxgal

Do you have monster wheels on them?

luxgal

In all seriousness, is there anyway for me to make the car less low? Could I add something?

Cillys

No ... had them .. drove very bad and rough ... these are brand new .. i do have AP Racing two-piece 14" 6 piston rotors on and stops now ... but if you want large tires and jacked up ... i can arrange that ... lol

JaredP

You really gotta check if you have stock springs or not, as of now, we can't tell.

Cillys

could you post a pic so that us may see the stance and type wheels too ... over size rims and low profile tires can lower the chassis as well if the previous owner installed lowering springs ... HOWEVER, if it is a CPO Mercedes then it is all OEM most likely ...

luxgal

I would need a ladder to climb this thing haha.

luxgal

I'll take a photo tomorrow and post it after I get out of work. It is CPO, but this low thing is not cool. I don't even want to imagine what it will be like driving in New England snow.

Cillys

cannot view this .. behind a .mil firewall and they do not allow sites like this ... i get to this site only because its not meta tagged with certain keywords that the bluecoat filter looks for to block ...

Cillys

will be looking forward to see ... i'm curious of the stance ... i purchase my '11 in Feb with 17k .. fully loaded even with the rear camera

JaredP

That sounds pretty awful Cillys, have you ever thought of using a VPN? I bought one when I was going to China for a month, and I was able to access anything, provided I could access the VPN.

angeloxnet

sorry, im still reading the line that says my car goes BOOM!
and then quietly laugh

Cillys

Get caught using a VPN ... go home ... no more 15k per month

The car has got to be lowered or the shocks/struts completely blown. There's no way a stock car should have to take bumps or driveways at an angle in order to not scrape.
When you say the car goes "boom", what does that mean? Are you scraping the front lip or do the tires feel like they're rubbing the fender?
Post a side shot of your car? We should be able to see whether you're lowered or not. You can do a quick check to see how much gap you have between the tire and the wheel well. Either the "how many fingers" scientific method or break out the tape measure.

Its also a possibility that something is stuck underneath the car or a part that wasn't locked in well enough, should take a look
