Dude! Check out Mercedes web site first before you say anything.... It's the C Coupe not the C series.... it's priced at around 24K.... it's Mercedes fight back against Compact Cars
As you can see, it looks just like the new coupes that are out in the market... as far as luxury... it has way more that the Jap versions... and costs just as much!
The Mercedes US site is down right now so I linked to the uk site... i know this is 195HP.

C Coupe is nice. But it is not fully loaded like RSX Type S. The fully loaded one runs to about 28K. 24K gets you cloth seats and nothing else. By the way it is 190hp and 200 lbs torque. 2.3L supercharged engine with improved low end and engine noise reduction.

Benz said plain C230 Sports Coupe should propel 0-60 in about 7.4 seconds. Becareful though the more option you add to that car the heavier it gets. It could well end up near 3500 lbs range fully loaded. 1/4 mile time should be mid 15's for the plain car.

that'd be cool, i'd consider buying that if there were aftermarket parts for it... but i bet it won't get that much attention from aftermarket part companies... since is more luxury, it's german and well it's a mercedes... you don't expect anybody to really mod a mercedes

Modding europeans car = a lot more money than modding japanese cars. You can buy some Brabus parts for that car. Also the in house turner AMG parts.

Japanese luxury car is catching up though. Look at what Acura, Infiniti and Lexus have accomplished. The 3 put a big scare into the European car company.

Just picked up the RSX Type S. It is an amazing car. It will rip through first, second and third spinning the tires through each geer. ummmm so much for the break-in period. Good thing it isn't a motorcycle!

Michellin Tires
Hey Does anyone know if the RSX comes with the same cheesy michellin tires that came with the Integra? I hope they fixed it! Those tires are the worst... they don't deserve to be put on any car, specially a sports car at that...
