Just got word from my lawyer that MBUSA has agreed to buy back my car (2002 C230K). I drove it 33000 miles for 17 months and it only cost me $5083.

Next thing to do is pick out what color i want. Silverstone on Red, Spa Yellow, or Suzuka Blue.

 

wow man thats really cool that your gonna get one. i dont know what color you should imo you should get white or black but any of the colors look cool

 

definately black, I hear it's the fastest of all color

 

Get black. If you have black you are cool.

 

White is very rare, you would be cool if you had one!

 

Black looks the best (IMO). Sorry to hear about the Benz, but nice to hear about the S.

 

I have white and actually chose it over Black, silver and Red. White is a much cooler(and by that I mean temperature) car, and this is a summer car, right? If any bird crap, tar, or bugs happen to sit on your black car in the sun, it will bake into the paint and damage it.

Plus, I just sold my black prelude. Black does look awesome when it's clean, but White always looks clean even when it's dirty and is less susceptible to the effects of the sun.

 

Take Suzuka Blue or Spa. These two are the best s2k colors (for me)

 

Lemon law, huh?
Seems like Mercedes' build quality is plunging.. I'm assuming the C class is built in the States, right?
As for color -- Silverstone on Red. The interior's actually red/black in '00 and '01 models. It's pimped-out, fry-your-eyeballs total red on subsequent models.

 

i have a C230 Kompressor coupe, or should i say had. It was built in germany. The problem was that the engine would lose about a quart of oil every 1000 miles. Id except that if the engine really had some power but it doesn't it's about equal with the prelude in terms of power and the engine is blown. they replaced my engine at 30K miles with the problem constantly happening. The new engine also did the same thing. in addition to the engine losing oil, the car constanly had problems with the ESP/BAS system, which is the electronic stability program and the brake assist system. the sunroof had problems, my ignition had problems and my windows bounced down when going up. So i guess you can say i got a lemon.
