2017 Mercedes C300 Sport 4Matic AMG Pack (W205)
A first time Mercedes owner!

Hi,
I got my hands on a nice 2010 Mercedes C300 Sport 4 Matic (W204).
It's the first time I had a mercedes, and I'm very excited about it!
I came across MBWorld a few times while doing some research, and today I decided to subscribe to be able to post something, and also hopefully bring my help to MB users.

Have a great day!

Welcome to MBWorld. Grats on your w204 pickup. That model has been well explored so you'll find a ton of useful information on her. We have a w204 test vehicle here as well and were one of the first early modifiers to that platform, so feel free to hit us up with any questions and we'll do our best to help answer.


Let us know if we can help you out with any lighting upgrades. We have the full spec of that vehicle and can replace all the lights with newer and whiter plug and play LED/HID options. Really gives it a nice clean facelift.

Hello guys!
Thank you for your replies!

That's the one!
(After a few weeks of owning it, I lost the passenger side water deflector. I never replaced it, but I'm about to buy a new one this week)








When I bought it, the tires were in very bad shape.
So, first order of business, a new set of Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 tires. Bought them from Tire Rack, and got them delivered to a tire shop nearby.
I drove 28K miles with these tires, and they still look great! (I originally expected to replace them after 20K miles)
Very satisfied with these tires. I had to hard brake a few times, and you can feel the grip... amazing




Yesterday, I installed these Mercedes Logo lights.... just for fun.



Have a great week end!

nice looking ride and I really like the door lights. Now you need to install illuminated sills.

Hey guys!

This past Christmas (Dec 2019), I sold that sweet 2010 Mercedes C300 (W204)
I was so sad to part ways, because it was a great companion since I bought it. Never gave me any issues, only scheduled maintenance.
I never got tired of it, and was always joyful driving it.
This was one of the pictures I posted in the listing when I was trying to sell it





And this was the last time I saw it in front of the DMV, where the new owner and I exchanged the title and keys for money






But then, a couple of weeks ago, I drove all the way to Georgia, and found the new replacement one. A very sexy White 2017 Mercedes C300 Sport 4Matic with the AMG Pack (Panoramic moonroof, Burmester sound system, COMMAND 8.4", with the Night Pack). I am so excited about this one! I have been driving for the past two weeks, and very happy with it!
