Different sources say different things, but Zetsche has been quoted directly by at least one car mag that the C will get a diesel option in the USA. Better be - it's the only one I'm interested in. My guess is that we will have to wait until middle-to-late 2008, when the 2009 model year comes along.
MY2008: 3.0 and 3.5 gasoline only
MY2009: Add the 3.0 Diesel [which for marketing reasons, continues to be called a "320"]

I just have a question for everyone out there. I own a 2004 C230 and I've recently noticed on some 2006 models that they made a beeping sound when locked and unlock the car. Does anyone know how to program your car to do this? Thanks

I don't know, iu couldn't find that in the owner's manual, because my 2001 C240 doesn't beep either and I'd like it to.
Did you check you owner's manual?

It's in the owner's manual; you have to reprogram the key fobs to do this. It's a simple process. We preferred silence; before you do this, think about how annoying it is to have cars beeping at each other every time somebody locks the doors. Anyway, if you're sure this is what you want, look in the book...

I've looked throught the book, but I can't seem to find it. All I could find was how to reprogram the locking/unlocking paterns (1 door or all doors). Can u shed some light? Thanks

We don't have our C any more, so I can't reference the manual. You can call the dealer's service dept, and one of the advisors would be more than happy to walk you through it. Or call the MBUSA national number and ask for help.

I can't find an answer to this question, so i hope somebody can help me here. Why does the 2006 C230's fuel economy is 21/30 and the 2007 C230's is 19/25. They both have the same 2.5L V6, 7 speed auto. The new EPA guidelines are not in effect until the 2008 models come out.

Well for those interested in diesels, Mercedes is introducing an R280 CDI(and for those who care, a 7 passenger R). This is good news because of this engine, There is a chance that there will be a 194hp C280 CDI diesel!!

According to the 2007 C-Class brochure the C230 is still 21/30. Not sure where you saw the mileage posted.
