What’s up fellas,
So I purchased a new car!
This car is a work in progress, I plan to go "balls to the wall" with this car, and it should hopefully be complete by the end of next year. For those who remember my X5; I still have it, well, my older brother does. It is still modded, and will continue to be modded (KWv3 coilovers coming soon
), but on my brother's dime.
I bought the car last July as I wanted a car for my daily beater instead of the X5. The X barely got 14mpg with the wheels and all, and I knew gas prices would soon soar. I went out hoping to purchase a 335i, but the APR rates were in the high 8’s and the MSRP was near 50k. So I went down the street to check out the new C-class. It looked pretty awesome, very aggressive and classy at the same time, but there was a 3 month wait and all the cars on the lot were already spoken for. Then as I was walking out of the Benz dealership, I noticed four or five 2007 C230’s on the lot. I immediately noticed the 07’s looked slightly different than the older C230’s. Some of the changes included dual tip AMG muffler, different wheels (concave 6 spokers), and the C55 rear spoiler. They had a low APR rate (2.9%) and they gave me their ding and curb rash warranty for free. I believe I got the car for 33k out the door with taxes and everything.
And hopefully after college, I'll be in a Porsche 911 C4S.
