Maybe it is good to start a new thread the last one is getting too big and with all the photos it is slow to load.
In addition to the 1st gen Audi A4 tail, the grill with the star in it looks like the one that is on the Sprinter Van. While the SL CLK and CL star looks good, this one looks like it belongs on a truck

Not blown away
Well...all I can say is that I am not blown away. The car doesn't flow like the W203, it looks a bit choppy. The trunk looks pushed in a bit and the tail-lights look sort of like a kia rio. Plus the headlights don't look very stylish to me...I really hope the car looks better in person. Right now I love the way my current car looks...
I am also wondering how much would the new W204 cost with all of the same options I got in my W203, especially considering that MB has been taking away some standard stuff just about every year since 2005. I can tell you right now that I must have an AMG bodykit on any future benz I buy...and that includes the W204. I know the car will be priced 3% to 5% higher than the W203, but I wonder how much the AMG body kit will cost.
Hopefully in a few years I can afford a CLS...but just in case I can't, I hope the W204 grows on me so that I can have a back up plan to stay in the MB family. Still can't wait to see one in person...

2007 C230 Sport manual
I think the car will be fine once we see it in the flesh. Pictures are never as good as the real deal.
My only concern is that the steering wheel seems kind of busy. I like the 2004 version, which is very straight forward. A minor quible, to be sure.
OKAY.....Saints v. Patriots in the Superbowl....ANYONE disagree?

From what I have seen I quite like the W204, I only wonder if the cigarette lighter will get stuck in them?

The sport steering with paddle shifters behind, see them. I like what I am seeing.
You can get birds eye maple too with this trim.
