Black 2010 C300 Sport
Service Shop near Raleigh, NC?
Hey everyone!
Just bought a 2010 Black C300 Sport, yes, I'm excited.
I got it from Auction Direct USA, so I was wanting to take it to get looked at to make sure everything is okay (brakes, spark plugs, etc.).
I really don't know much about cars, or mechanics in the area so I was wondering if anyone had suggestions on what to look out for or on places to take it? One friend told me to just take it to the dealership, anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks in advance,
batkoski

Awesome man! thanks for the lookout.
I do have a question for you - how much do you have your car lowered and do you feel a difference in the ride? I'm afraid to do it because I love the way my new (to me) C300 rides. Do you have stock wheels?

That's awesome, good to hear. I wanna find someone in Raleigh I can ride with. I was thinking of grabbing some 19s and seeing how it looks. Maybe 18s with a drop will feel better cause I can get a little thicker tire. Idk, I just got this car wednesday so obviously I've got some research to do, ha.
The only thing I've gotten so far is I just ordered some clear side markers, those orange ones had to go on a black car.

I can meet up with you sometime or my car will be at euroclassics Oct 4-12 while I'm in California. He is painting my grill and front spoiler. I like 19's, depending on the offset they can be too aggressive. The 18 inch wheel has more options and gives you a little more side wall.
Congrats on the car, I've had mine for 4 years and love driving it.

That would be great man - I work in RTP so I'm not too far from Durham. Yeah my goal in modding my car is honestly to kind of give the "luxury" side a little more sport look. I'm not into the racer look or anything.
My potential mod lists is as follows:
Clear Side Markers
Remove Door Chrome
Wheels
Maybe Lower?
HIDs (Fogs and low beams)
Tint (35 all round)
Maybe amg tips and diffuser? Not sure about that one.
But I'd love to see/ride in your car sometime! ha

Nice, thanks romeo.
I'll have to check out both. Not sure when I'm planning on doing my big mods, but I'm not really handy so little mods kinda freak me out a bit (such as removing chrome and replacing side markers).
