I got a offer for assistance to get a Mercedes Benz c230 Kompressor Sports coupe if i forgot this whole Lancer Evo 7 thing. WHAT SHOULD I DO! the Benz is pretty but is it as good as all wheel drive?

THe benz has a 2.3l Super charged Dohc. and its only 26k
but I WANT ALL WHEEL DRIVE.

i really dont know what to do.

Can i get some sugestions?


Thanks

Dippie

I think the question here is....Do you want an Uglymobile, or a Phatmobile?

I'm goin with the Evo on this one

Dude that Benz is fugly AND slow. Not to mention if you're the type to mod cars, you'll be deeply disappointed with that Benz.

My question is why anyone would want you to forget the EVO. It's not out for at least another year, so there's plenty of time to make a final decision, and a mercedes is, technically speaking, a higher-end, riskier (at least more at risk of being broken into, stolen, and shit) car to own.

I look at it like this: you meet a woman who fits you, looks good to you, performs in all the right ways, but you go off with another ho who looks good as well, but you had a better shot at nailing right away. You'll probably end up lying awake at night thinking about what you gave up.


or was that too deep:huh:

That was quite possibly the kewlest and most dead-on analogy I've ever heard.

Mad props man!!

Now...the benz is a hella nice car...it's not as fugly as some cars i've seen, but that ricer peasoup color has got to go. I still say wait for the Evo...not just because i'm in love with the evo, but because it has a wider horizon of modification. PLUS, it's going to be a year long AWD war. All wheel drive is what you need Dippie.

i really do love the evo, its cheaper, faster, (not more powerful, but faster with all wheel drive) and the underdog of the all wheel drive pocket rocket race.
but the Benz is class, plain and simple and if i get the benz, i will get the offer for help on the payments. which i dont need but it will be nice. OH yeah the benz comes with a supercharger. /shrug.

ROOOAR!
Remember the broader horizon Dippie....Don't get me wrong, the benz is a really nice car. BUT No one in there right mind would ever take that thing out to race. even if it's high 20k low 30k. Annnnnnnnnnnnnd it's two door...that in itself should change your mind, and it kinda looks like a smaller version of the Aztec.

Remember...when buying a benz...your paying for the name, not necessarily the performance.
