Same. I also have my eyes set on C200 Exclusive line. Since the facelift model is coming out soon, I would expect there would be some discount. Is there any sales person in this thread that has any information?

If there is no discount, then it makes no sense to buy it now. Might as well wait for the facelift model if the price is the same. dry.gif

Im hunting for white C200 Exclusive as well. But Hapseng SA said very rare unit and need to wait 2-3 months for sarawak. Yes i saw the facelift version in paultan. Wonder will debut in geneva motor or not.

Im surprised so many Exclusive kaki here. But on the road I see Avantgarde only. I prefer Exclusive coz the suspension they say slightly more comfortable than avantgarde.
I really wanna know when is the facelift coming out . hmm
*
Exclusive model is 15mm higher. So actually more comfortable but wont feel sporty as avantgarde. Avantgarde rim very ugly. Exclusive got extra sunroof, better rim, stitched dashboard.

Serious? C200 got sun roof now? I thought only c250 and above get sunroof!  Lol...each on its on! I can't stand the emblem sticking out on the top of the bonnet!  But you are rite, I need to do a zig zag when crossing over a road bump! If I am not mistaken, only the c 250 and above is much lowered in ht! Don't think there is a difference in the c200 !
*
Sliding sunroof instead of panaromic one. C200 exclusive got comfort suspension package stuff.

Grey imports are coming in. My SA got 1 unit C200 AMG line japan spec 2014 going for RM235k. After discount RM218k. Worth it? Local avantgarde cant match the amg line spec.

the spec way better than the current c200... how much is it?
*
Rm228k. After nego rm215k in Kuching, Sarawak. It is demo unit from Wakayama Mercedes Japan so it explains the high spec. Sadly not amg unit. But given the spec and price, it is worth i guess.

Not from mbm. From largest recond dealer in sarawak tan brother. They deal directly with mercedes wakayama there. Not like usual auction market. I compare local spec from mbm, really want vomit. So many things missing.

More  or less a 2 to 3 years used car! The price is not much of a difference  from a ckd brand new with 4 years warranty for peace of mind! 9 G vs 7G! Think a pre reg unit ckd is around this pricing too that cum with 4 years warranty by MBM!  Anyway, your money your call! biggrin.gif
*
Cant compare like that though. 1 is kosong specs, 1 is what make C-class the World Car of the 2015 year. If Mbm were to bring specs like this, it would be over rm300k plus leh. Unless dont mind to drive without all the extra features i mention, then better get local unit.

Recently C250 AMG specs got trimmed down. They remove the burmester and comand online(back to tiny audio 20 screen). Actually mbm should include DAP+(Driving Assistant Package+) as standard. Feature like Blind spot assist is helpful especially changing lanes. And for night drive, ILS will be good. Head-up Display and powerboot are extras though. Lastly, no keyless entry except c250 model onward. My 2.8 hilux revo got keyless entry!

One is second or third hand car and one is brand new! To each of its own ! I am pantang on driving a second hand car and also warranty is Beri critical for me when buying a conti car! My previous w204 got a warranty claim on the gearbox screws in my second year of ownership! If I were to replace on my own, it costs minimum 6k ! Furthermore, I enjoy suka suka going yo the sc to get my car check and drink kopi  under the warranty period ! Lol.  The most common issue is the steering wheel, it will get jam from time to time! I just got certain parts replaced by the sc after three jams in two years! Anyway, enjoy your new ride!  smile.gif
I believed JDM specs's radio frequency is also an issue!
*
This one referring to W204 or W205 leh? You clock how many KMs per year? Actually mine mostly drive 4 times a week only, town drive.

i was in situation like yours too..thinking local w205 c250 or e250 (w212 new facelift) recond with many extra goodies with it. below are my concerns for it:-
- warranty only 1 year (it can be extended but matter is HOW easy to claim it from 3rd party warranty)
- how the car is being used and how come all reconds are low mileage despite 3 years car
- for the additional cool and safety features in the car, is there any mechanics who can actually FIX it or not if it's faulty
- lastly that local SC will not take in recond cars to rectify for you the problem.
but it's your money so i guess you've thought all of these before going into it...it's definitely something nice to have for the c class on the specs you highlighted.
cheers!
*
Not all recond car with low mileage tho. Other 2 units is 45k and 56k 3 years. Matter of luck actually whether all the safety features will be faulty or not. Along the way i will update it here. See how it goes. If recond unit giving alot problems, then next time i might stick to local unit.

Guys, recently bought a Mercedes c200 import.
It has traffic sign assist inoperative issue,I believe is affected by GPS.
Anyone of you know where can I update GPS modules?
Car dealer said maybe can try those accessories shop in Sunway, but I need recommendation.
*
I also just received my c200 import unit in sarawak. The GPS module you need to flash it locally. Try ask hapseng. Last time i was quoted rm5k plus for SEA firmware.

Any of you toy-ed with the individual setting for agility select, any tips? I tried sports+ yesterday and it was so fantastic

Yes the sports+ mode is quite fun on good roads. Night drive the ILS really come in handy. Road so bright especially county road
