It looks like we're either going with the C-class or the 300. Probably the C. It's closer to the size we're used to, and we like the styling better.
The 300C was a little floaty on the highway (remember, I'm coming out of a Viggen), and the SRT was just too thirsty and expensive for what you get.
Sadly, the C230 is rather slow (8 or 8.5 sec to 60), and the C350 is pretty expensive. All you get for the $8K difference from the 230 is a power passenger seat and the larger engine. Maybe the C280, which is the "luxury" version might work. But it doesn't look as sharp as the "Sport".
Decisions, decisions.
