Temperature -3 degrees Celsius (26 degrees Fahrenheit), road surface: dry/black ice, wind: headwind 2 m/s. The car is bone stock and despite its age, it is in mint condition and runs like new thanks to meticulous maintenance. The C 230 SportCoupé is powered by a supercharged, four-cylinder engine. It offers 145 kW (197 hp) at 5500 rpm and 280 Nm (207 lb ft) of torque between 2500-4800 rpm. The 2.3 liter supercharged inline-four engine (M111) is considered to be coarse and noisy at the high end. However, some experts consider it to be one of the best small engines ever produced by Mercedes. C230 Kompressor SportCoupé is a poor man’s SLR McLaren.
