Feel free to ask or post a "spotted " and add location and time. If you have a pic would be fun too.

LOL! In chicagoland area that are so many W204s on the road, I'd be doing nothing but snapping pics all the time.

The person was driving forwards the tunnel. It was by the Kennedy Blvd. exit when he passed me. Exactly the same spot but the opposite direction where I was clocked 85mph on a 45Mph zone and given a $420 ticket to brighten my day.
If you heading west, be aware that the PAPD likes to hide on the 30th street ramp with the radar gun checking everything that comes out of the big loop and the tunnel towards the turnpike.

After all is a great spot to let the horses go.

I think today is the day I saw the most w204 in a intersection. I counted 11 including mine at Granville and 49th in Vancouver. There were 6 side by side and back to back and I was the seventh and on the opposite side was*4*waiting at the stop light. It looked like a meetup actually. Most of them are white and one is a 2014 lux model. Vancouver is really saturated with c-class that sometimes it doesnt feel like special anymore.

Oddly I seem to see more w212 than w204. At least up and down 90.

One time I saw a matte orange W204 C63-look-alike (or an actual C63, I couldn't see the front) driving on I-405 in Kirkland WA area. Keep wondering if its one of you guys? So slick...

I saw this one last Saturday in Edmonds, WA. Any of you guys?
The fog light conversion and black housing headlights look great.

Yeah I am surprised they aren't around here. Probably busy doing mods
There are so many C here in WA. I can easily spot W204s, 203 on the way back home from work every day. Today on I-405 I saw a CL65 AMG, pretty sick V12 Bi-turbo
