Nasty mileage :/. Auto only :/. It could also use something to distinguish it from the other models, other than the badge. Why is it so many American sedans are auto only, weather upscale or not (yeah I know there's a few exceptions), although this is partly European.

Lets see 19 on the highway and 14 in city driving, average 18.4 not to shabby.
20 in wheels, Brembo 4-piston on 14 in rotors, ground effects, and most importantly 425 hp and 420 lbs-torque.

Forget the badges, keep it a total sleeper, it should been capable of getting into the low 13’s and 0-60 around 5 sec, not to shabby for a 4 ton vehicle.


If you insist on the badging here ya go http://www.bumpertalk.com/bumpertalk/BC251A.html?id=yxpPQso6

There are four models of this car. I would say there are three. One with 190hp, another with 250hp, and the one with 340hp. Each is a little different from the other, but you have to pay attention to details, which is my middle name. The 190hp one does not come with fog lights. The 250hp one does have fog lights. The 340hp one has fog lights and the main head light assembly is shaped differently from the former two. The 300c, which is the 340hp one, also comes with 18 inch rims instead of the 17's that the other two come with. You can probably get the bigger rims on the other two if you really want, but you can't get the head light assembly.

I noticed the headlights were different.
I thought the straight ones look better.

I disagree, the C style headlights look better, IMO. They give it a more distinctive look.

Because it's supposed to be a luxury car like a Lexus or Mercedes-Benz!

Sometimes I look at the car and I think it is beautiful and then at times I look at it and think something is missing. I'm not sure what it is, I think it may have something to do with the back end. Maybe missing something around the exhaust tips, it looks unfinished to me.

Well, considering the price, its not missing much. The looks are well beyond the 30k price range.
