C55AMG W203; 330i E90
Smile C55 for life

2004 Aug launched , C55, 16 months, 22000km, this car now rocks.

Unless something goes really right or really wrong, otherwise this is the car for life , provided:-

1. You don't feel to drive more agressive looking cars
2. You don't need more than ( or less than ) 5 seats.
3. You don't win the lottery.

In our tiny city, C55 wins my heart on,

1. A young and sporty looking medium size car with both high performance and luxury status, and it is the most affordable AMG despite our high tax.
.
2. With the normal W203 look, you (as a powerful car) won't be easily noticed, thus, to race or not to race , I make the call most of the times. You know how much I have enjoyed for many occasions other drivers were so surprised of my speed and they must be thinking "What the hell is this , a C-Class ?"

3. 52km/m torque, I know I would never enjoy any quick and easy driving with cars less torque than that.


The only major issue of C55 is the 52 litre fuel tank size not matching its engine displacement's fuel consumption rate.
This does not make a good excuse to place my C63 order :p .

Nice summary. I agree that you can be as inconspicuous as you like in this car. It flies under the radar nicely, until someone hears the exhaust...
