Nice car A///MG_Power, good color choice. What made you choose pewter? I picked mine b/c I see too many brilliant silver cars floating on the street.

thanks for the warm welcome guys, i appreciate it. I did buy it, out the door it was around 61k, got it a lil bit under MSRP with negotiation. I Love this car. I got every option except telephone, and it's awesome! TeleAid even knows my name! And the navi is really cool too. =) About mods, of course, as a 19 year old testosterone filled speed/looker demon, i guess you might say I am interested. I am new to benzes, I've been following m3's for a while now, hence my handle. I'm actually picking up an 04 steel gray e46 m3 at the end of the year too. I was going to ask you guys about how I could mod my c32. I know one can tune ECU, tune the supercharger, pulley kits, are those the most major things? how's warranty deal with that? Any dyno stats? Well thanks for your time and consideration guys, its nice to be welcome =)

Thanks, I do see too many brilliant silver cars out there even though it's a great color. Pewter sparked me and my dad's interest because in certain lights, it looks gold and then dark grey. We have a thing for unique colors. My dad's 911 turbo was repainted in 16 layers of metallic blue pearl paint, it also varies in color shades. I will post some pix soon if you'd like. Not very many people had it so its something different. Its pewter on charcoal. Is pewter new this year? Talk to you guys soon, thanks again i appreciate your response. oh about mods, man i think dual exhaust is awesome. What do you guys think? How much of a hole in my wallet would it put me? Any internals like filters or intakes recomended? I look under the hood of that AMG and i dont really wanna mess with it, its so clean and busy under there, seems like everything has a purpose. Well, just as long as its done right, right? but ive been checkin out the forum lately and whats this SL55 y pipe thingy?

How can you afford this car, in addition to the new M3 you plan on buying, seeing as you are only 19? Im just curious because im 18 and am trying as hard as I can to afford a w208 clk430 and am struggling to come up with money for that, nevermind a $61K new car.

I also took Pewter because I just don't like the way Brilliant Silver looks on the 203, I vowed to never have a black car again, and Tectite wasn't an option for 2003.

As good as Pewter looks on the W203, it looks stunning on the W209.

wait, do the 03 and 04 c32's have clear lens bi-xenons (as opposed to non-clear lenses)? i thought they didn't because the headlights of the c32's in the 03 and 04 brochures don't have the clear lenses. am i wrong?

white and whiter
congrats on the new car.

air, the cars in the brochure does not have bi-xenon option pictured. That's why it doesn't have clear lense cover. If you look closly, the car they pictured is probably a 02.
