Having never driven a W205, I will say the big V8 is what I wanted. Although the tunability of turbo cars is very appealing. The sound, the V8 sound, the AMG sound makes this car.

Once again, that's just my opinion. Opinions are like azzholes, everyone has one.

edit** I bought my car without ever driving one before. Aside from me not use to small cars, it blew all my expectations.
I'm on the fence right now. I LOVE my C63, but I have been looking at the w205's tunability. Coming from a Turbo background its ridiculous the type of power you can achieve with a simple tune. & unless your a baller badass like Durranic it'll be hard to ever achieve the power the w205 will be able to put out.

Once I've had my way with my w204 and the w205's start dropping in price I will keep them open as an option.

yeah same here, i saw a w205 in person and it looked pretty sharp, exhaust isn't as loud as the w204 but that isn't always a bad thing as the w204 does get a bit excessive sometimes
