We have been very happy with our car for the first 12 years . We recently replaced Cat. Converter, Exhaust Manifold and the Thermostat at the Foothill MB at a high cost and smog checked it. I guess you expect to pay a few $$$ for a 14 years old car...We have advertised it with Craig list, so far we have been getting calls from people promoting their own websites or want to sell it for us for a fee...We are confident it will sell. The car is in EXCELLTENT condition inside and outside and RUNS great.

Finally moving up from Accords. I purchased this black Benz a week ago with the automatic transmission, sunroof package, heated seats, and CD changer options. This car offers an excellent combination of luxury and performance. Interior room is fine for those up front, but a bit snug in the rear. So don’t buy this car based on its people-hauling ability. After test driving the Audi A4 and Acura TSX, I realized the C230 Sport was the best choice for me. Whether or not it is better than the 325i or A4 is a matter of opinion, but you owe it to yourself to take this car for a good long test drive. Dealing with the Mercedes dealership was a pleasure.

The C230K sport sedan is a fun car to drive. The best value for your money 2-3k less then a BMW 3. Seats, body, tires/wheel combination are all sporty and agreesive and make for a beast of car. Take a drive and you will love it. First time Benz owner and have driven Honda's and Nissan all my life and have finally got something fun and not boring to drive!

I love my 2003 C230 Sedan, it has all the style and luxury appeal of Mercedes- Benz but a price tag that I could swallow. Great Performance, styling and comfort, my only regret is thaT I didnt get the Cold Weather package (heated Seats)....

Most Bang for the buck! I've owned my 2004 for about 8 months now. I initially was out to get a BMW 325. However, after driving the C230k, the BMW was out of the question! In my opinion, the exterior styling/whoa factor can't be beat by any car in it's price segment. The interior materials are grade "A". Also, performance is awesome! Everyone who I let drive my car, usually is quite shocked after I tell them that there's a 4cyl under the hood, not a 6cyl. I will admit that handling isn't as precise as that of the Bimmer, but I will say this...the c230 is the BEST combination of sport/luxury that one can get for barely over $30k!
