This is my 2005 Mercedes-Benz C230 Kompressor Sport Sedan. I got it on December 9th, 2007. Believe it or not, it was a Christmas gift from my brother Jon. We've never owned a new car before, so this really is amazing to me. It's the nicer of the C-Class W203 models, with a supercharged 1.8l I4 which is actually pretty quick. It may be the cheapest Mercedes, but it sure as hell isn't the slowest. It has two modes-- Comfort and Sport. Sport makes throttle response quicker, steering better, tighter turning, it's pretty cool. Comfort is obvious, the shocks soften up, goes over bumps nice a smoothly, the expected. It is completely stock and it will stay that way, aside from a few little things.

It's very comfortable, but the backseat is kinda small. I'd love to list the features, but honestly, I don't have that much time... haha. I love the lumbar and seat controls... not to mention the car is already as low as a Corvette.

It is rarely driven because I wish to keep it in utmost pristine condition. That, and I'd rather rack up the miles on my 4Runner. It had 25,300 miles when I got it, now it's just hit 29,000.

One thing I am actually going to do soon is smoke the tails and the orange lights on the sides.

Haha, that's cool that you see the "NVER LA8" NSX around town. You'll have to talk next time you see him and let him in on how famous that plate is. =D
