    1999 Mercedes Benz C230 Supercharged BBS - $2300




    http://nh.craigslist.org/cto/3104710710.html

    Custom Suspension
    16x7 Merecedes BBS RA repainted with polished lips
    Loaded
    200K miles
    2.3L Supercharged 4 cylinder
    5 Speed Automatic

    Car is a blast to drive and gets a lot of looks. It has been my daily driver for the past 2 years, but i have 9 cars at the moment so it's time to liquidate. Higher mileage, but it's never left me stranded. Runs and drives great. Many new parts.

    I know the guy who built this car. One of his less "wild" projects. I prefer the LT1 swapped A4 avant.

    Fun stuff, but the car really is a complete turd
