The Mercedes-Benz C-Class (W203) is an automobile that was produced by Mercedes-Benz from July 2000 to December 2006.
Design work on the W203 C-Class began in mid-1994, with the final design being approved in December 1995 by the executive board. Design patents were filed on 20 April 1998 and 4 March 1999. Testing began in 1997, with development concluding in 2000. The second generation C-Class was introduced in March 2000. The sedan debuted with a range of inline-four and V6 petrol engines and inline-four and -five diesels. Most of the engines were carried over from the W202, but the C 320 was exclusive, offering 160 kW (218 PS). The diesels now featured common rail direct fuel injection and variable geometry turbochargers. Six-speed manual gearboxes were now standard for the entire range, except the C 320.
Mercedes-Benz debuted a coupe variant in October 2000, labelled the C-Class SportCoupé and given the model designation CL203 (see below). The third body variant, a station wagon codenamed S203 arrived in 2001. Then in 2002 for the 2003 model year, a new family of supercharged four cylinder engines, dubbed M271, debuted for the entire range C-Class range. All of them used the same 1.8-litre engine, with different designations according to horsepower levels, including a version powered by natural gas. The C 230 Kompressor variant sported 142 kW (190 hp). The newer 1.8-litre was less powerful but smoother and more efficient than the older 2.3-litre engine (141 kW (192 PS) compared to 142 kW (193 PS). For the C 240 and C 320, 4MATIC four-wheel drive versions were also offered in addition to rear-wheel drive.
Back in my review, still a picture perfect you
Slow down so I can see, who my passenger should be
Lovely your style of light, bought you beauty into my sight
Knew my direction and follow the girl in the Mercedes Benz
Chorus:
Didn't car how far she'd go, tank full, top down, come on lets roll
Had a girl she was great but I changed direction,
Cause the girl in the Benz was my destination
(Repeat)
Drove around for a little while, I guess you could say I was following her now
Pulled up to a big old house, she signaled to me to get on out
She said I know you think your slick,
but ain't nothing' coming near me if I don't go near it
I guess you could imagine it now and me and the girl in the Mercedes Benz
Chorus (x 3)
Nothing against the Jags, Nothing against the Rolls
Nothing against the fords or the Chevy's but I got to have the Benz
Nothing against the Cads, Nothing against the Lex
Don't really matter what your running in I gotta have the girl in the Mercedes Benz
