I didn't know they still sold the C-class coupe in Canada. Why did they keep it there but discontinue it here?

Just bought a 2002 CLK55 AMG and am looking for an active discussion. This car is certified thru Jan 2007, but just received an offer for $2.5k that would provide an exclusionary warranty for 5 years/100k miles. Has anyone had dealings with 5 Star Warranty??

They still list 2006 C coupe in Mercedes Benz Canada offical website, but I've been to the dealer and can not place an order on the 2006 C coupe, all you have is very few 2005 stock.

I have my C230K coupe for 3 years and the problems have never stopped, one after the other. May be I'm just not lucky!
 
First was the on-board computer suddenly shut-off after a stop in front of the red light, took it back but the MB dealer couldn't diagnose the problem, told me it's been fixed, happened again. After several attempt. They found out it's the fuel pump sensor that's not enough fuel(half tank), change the fuel pump.
 
Then it's the ESP, always beeping(failure), took it back. Diagnosed for software update. Ok afterwards.
 
Then it's the battery alternator, suddendly stop working oneday morning when I have to go to work. Nice!! I had to call Road Side and tow the car out of my own garage. MB could not diagnose the problem, just replaced a new battery alternator and gave me a detail report saying that the voltage in my car is higher than normal, but why? no answer!!
 
Recently, the front disc brakes are squeaking like hell, took it back to MB, told me not to replce them now because there's still a bit left on the fronts. disc brakes came with package of 4. almost $800!! not covered by warranty!!
 
I'm a very slow and patient driver, handling the car and engine really well, but still....All the problems I mentioned above was extra besides regular maintaince which they called service A and service B. I never missed 1 service day but the car has way too many problems that anyone can handle. I admit that it's a very good looking car but you have to take the risk that the Kompressor starts to deteriorate after 4 years like mine, getting slower and slower to kick in when you need it!!

I have the same problem as you do, the lug nut gets rusted after around 2 years, I've been driving it for 3 years now but the outlook is not really a matter to me. What fursturates me is the actual physical problems like fuel pump failure which lead to engine shut-off, ESP failure, light bulb always goes out, battery alternator stop working one morning, brake disc squeaking like hell. You name it, I had it!! I'm glad they stop selling C230K coupe for 2006, great!!
 
My other 2003 Toyota Highlander never had a problem since we bought it, same time as the C230K coupe already went back to the dealer for 11 times for total of more than 1 month of service time!! Every failure took more than a week to diagnose and fix!!

Friend of mine got an 03 C230K. I took it for a spin and I must say I fell in love with this car. So now of course I want one .
 
I can't decide between the 2002 or 2003 models. They seem identical except the 02 has a 2.3L engine while the 03 has a 1.8L. From what I gather in the end there isn't much of a difference but I was concerned about one person saying that the 2.3L version is much more louder. Is it only on a cold start or overall compared to the 1.8L? The 1.8L my friend has is really loud on a cold start but then it gets nice and quiet.
 
Well anyway I can't decide between the two year models. I can save quite a few K going with a 02 but I'm worried about the engine. There must have been some obvious reason why Mercedes changed the engine.
 
This will be my 3rd car by now and I must say I'm awaiting it with great anticipation.
