2002 Mercedes-Benz C-Class C230 Kompressor review from North America
"A high performance bargain for sure!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Since I owned the car, nothing has gone wrong with it. I changed the oil regularly and put high octane gas in it. I guess if you treat your car gently, it will treat you back the same way.
General comments?
There is nothing, but good to say about this car. Of course it's no Ferrari, but it is one hell of a car. The car is really quick, as soon as you step on that pedal, you get what you want. And for the price it is one awesome deal. This is the first year they came out with it and only the year with a 2.3 liter 4 cylinder supercharged engine with 192 horsepower. They only make it with a 1.8 liter with only 189 horsepower just like any other car in its class. But hey, that's probably a good car too. It's comfortable with great sport seats. I have no idea of what I can say bad about this car so I won't even try!
