MERCEDES C-COUPE`

and with the Opera stg 2 kit its good for 240hp
not bad considering that a stock one comes with a 6 speed 2.3liter 16valve air/water intercooler 197H.P. 215 FT LBS and optional 245/40/17`s
and i like the rwd #1 good traction #2 no major driveline loss due to all wheel drive
oh, got to love a german sports coupe`
what are your opinions ?

Not bad, dig the wheels. I like the numbers. And again, I really dig the wheels. From this angle though, the back looks like the back of a Saturn. The rear side area kinda' looks like a Hondas. And the rest looks kinda' like a mix of Lexus and Mercedes. Overall though I think that it's a pretty sweet ride. Do you know how much it weighs?

one thing i cant get over is how the rear looks like the rear of a neon combined with those 3 door coupe saturns

Is "Opera" the name of a tuner? If not, who did this car?
What is included in the "Stage 2" kit that raises the car to 240bhp?
Really digging the tricked out Sports Coupe. Very sharp.

That car looks sharp, and I think it would be fun to trick out a C coupe, but for the money...well, let's just say I would rather drive a certain AWD sedan with an ugly front end.

Considered C-Coupe's specs, its good for upgrading since its a RWD hatchback with supercharger. A few suspension mods would give this car the handling it has always been needed.

I like it. From the top picture on the side it looks real aggressive.
It's all fun and games until someone starts a "a certain AWD sedan with an ugly front end.

" thread.

The side looks good, very Corradoish....overall though I just can't deal with that car, the back makes me want to ralph.

Re: hey guys what do you think? (Beltfed)

looks like a cross pollination of a Saturn and a Corrado, with CLK lights tossed on for looks....I do like the panoramic roof tho'

Opera is the Mercedes division from the known BMW tuner Hamann:

Yeah, and then you could blind oncoming drivers without your high beams on!...

Pretty sweet. I know someone getting one pretty soon. From some angles it looks badass, from some angles it looks not so badass. Mabey in person its better than the pictures.
