I drove a 230 a few weeks ago. Here are my comments:
Love the styling in the front and rear. Not wild about side view. Reminds me too much of 318ti and says "the owner had to have a Benz but couldn't afford the C-Class sedan".
The engine is powerful but sounds terrible - very unrefined.
Ride is somewhat noisy - kind of like my 9-3. The suspension in the 230 is better than the 9-3. The 230 handles very well.
I like the interior with the brushed aluminum.
If it were me, I would try and get the C240 with the V6. It's only 168hp but drives much better than the C230.
