Just got my new car (it was a surprise) and I still can't believe it. The problem is finding someone who will be happy for me :x
The ironic thing is that I had to leave town on a business trip so my car has been sitting in the driveway and I'm in a rental car.... :(
Ah well, it will stay new this way for longer. I did get a chance to try out some of it's gears but I still don't know how fast you have to be going to get it in sixth :? Hopefully I won't find out with a speeding ticket 8O
I sure am looking forward to driving to work now, and driving home and driving to the corner store and,...

I would like to offer my congratulations, along with Lynn.To be happy for someone else's good fortune or happiness, is a clear measure of one's personal qualities. Enjoy your C230. I pick mine up on Wednesday.

Awsome....I picked mine up 3 weeks ago. It is a exciting time picking up a great car. So enjoy and trust me when I say most here are happy proud owners and know the excitement and pride you are feelings. I say why cant I be happy for having great taste.

Congratulations!

Mine was delivered Oct. 01. I love this car! :D

This car still turns heads!

I usually drop it into sixth around 65-70 mph if I'm trying to keep it legal.

It'll run 60 mph in sixth but feels a lot better over 3,000 rpm.
