WOW!! Inexpensive DREAM CAR look no further (low reserve)

2005 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Sport Edition Description

You are viewing my beautiful 2005 Mercedes c230 1.8L SuperchargedKompressor. This car is in wonderful condition and runs very strong. The car has new brakes, suspension, and exhaust as well as various other goodies as shown in the pics.

Driving this car is simply a blast. I was planning to buy a c55 AMG, but when I test drove a couple c55's, my car felt much faster. I ended up buying a CLS500, because I found a really good deal and needed a change. I do not have enough garage space for the c230, which is why I am selling.

The sale comes with two fully functioning keys with cases. Complete service records are also provided.

Pros:

· This car is stunning. It has 18" AMG wheels that are Plastidipped black, but the Plastidip can easily be removed to show the beautiful silver.

·New headlights and grill really make this car stand out from other c230s, as well as drilled and slotted Brembo rotors

· Interior is clean with stock COMMAND GPS, as well as

aftermarket back up sensors and camera

· Acceleration in this car is quick and will impress

· There are no warning lights on the dash

Cons:

· There are a couple minor dings in the vehicle, as expected of a 12 year old vehicle. The undercarriage has scratches, but they are not noticeable unless you get under the car.

· The car sometimes idles a little rough upon start up. I took the car the several mechanics, and they all said that there is nothing wrong with the car and to leave it alone (i.e., since there is no Check Engine Light). Once the car runs for a few minutes idle smooths out.

Here is my honest, evaluation of various parts of the car (i.e., mechanical, body, interior, etc.):

Interior (8.5/10). The inside of this car is very nice. The only blemish I can think of is slight wear on the driver’s side seat rear cushion and very minor scratches on trim. Overall the trim is shiny and looks impressive.

Exterior (8/10). Given the age of this vehicle, the exterior is very nice. The paint is glossy. There is one ding on driver side, but it didn’t bother me otherwise I would have had it repaired. The bumper and undercarriage has some scratches, as one would expect from a daily driver.

Headlights and Grill (10/10). The headlights and grill are upgrades, and they look really good.

Mechanical Overall (8/10). Aside from the slight annoying idle at start up, this car is really in outstanding condition. I babied this car from the first day I bought her. Brakes, suspension, transmission, electrical are excellent.

Audio/Visual (8/10). The car has OEM Mercedes COMMAND GPS that works fine. Sometimes the screen flickers a bit but it has never failed. Navigation disk is included with purchase. I also hard wired a back-up camera and sensors, which are really helpful when parking.

Tires (7/10). Tires (Kuhmo Extas) have about ½ to ¾ tread depth, but are in good condition and grip and ride well.

Wheels (7/10). These 18" wheels are Plastidipped black and I believe look really nice. However, you can easily peel off the Plastidip to expose the beautiful silver AMG pedigree. I do not recall any significant roadrash on the wheels.

Suspension (8.5/10). The upgraded suspension makes going around turns very fun. There is minimal body role. Now and then you will hear some suspension creak.

Brakes (8.9/10). My car has new Brembo slotted and drilled rotors, and they are impressive. The pads are new and stop well.

Exhaust (8/10). People always think this is an AMG model due to the exhaust note. The sound invariable brings a smile to your face.

Performance. (9/10). This car is simply a blast to drive. It’s hard to believe a 1.8L could be so much fun, but the combination of the exhaust note and upgraded suspension really will get your adrenaline pumping!

I have videos of my car available upon request. Ebay would not allow links to be inserted in my add. Feel free to contact me and I will forward the links to videos of exterior, interior, and the exhaust note.
