New here so thanks in advance for any help. I like the odd C230 Sport Coupe and need to make a car move soon. I have an 85 mile round trip commute through mountain hills, twistys, highway and back roads. I live in snow country. I get by fine with front drivers with snows and our '92 rear drive Volvo "Brick" with the traction lock rear is a tank in the snow. My wife is addicted to Quattro's. I want a small car with decent mileage; don't need a race car but do need a fun car. I do all my own service.
My question: What kind of rear end is in the C230 Compressor Sport Coupe? How would it be in snow understanding that I'm flexible and would run dedicated snows/wheels? Any other comments about trim level or options would be appreciated.. Thanks, C.
