As a matter of practice you're better off searching Google for technical details. Forums like this is a great source for first-hand USER info, but a poor source for first-hand TECHNICAL info. If Google, Wikipedia and their ilk don't have the info, there's a very small chance someone on here will.

Very few of us work for, or involved in, the engineering, production and/or marketing of the vehicle itself, and at best get 2nd/3rd/4th hand info. As opposed to Google which has links to the actual documents produced by the manufacturers themselves.

Are you sure you don't mean a C300 with a 3.5 liter engine instead of a C350 with a 3.0 engine?

I thought that MB only had a 3 litre (2.987) V6 engine and that the 300, 320 and 350 designation is an indicator of different states of tune / output hp. Its certainly true here in the UK for V6s, for petrol/gas 180, 200 its 1.8 litres (1,796) , and with 200, 220 and 250 diesels - they're all 2.1 litres (2,148)! I think the only other deviation from these engine sizes is the old C180 Kompressor which was 1.6 litres (1,597).

This data comes from my vehicle handbook - it might be different for FL cars, not sure. I do know that the FL C250 CGI (gas) and the C250 CDi (diesel) are both 2.1 litres and are bi-turbos.
