Default C180 Kompressor- know anything about them?

Just found out yesterday a mate of mine has bought himself a C180 Kompressor.
Being a Supercharged 1.8L i was wondering if anyone knew Power output/Performance figures for them...(Steffo?)

the 430MLK goes good from an article I read. It was quicker than the 330kw Monaro, and its a truck.

It was Street Machine though, so who knows

Just about any mercedes is a nice car. Forgeting performance figures, comfort and luxury are the selling points. If you want performance, you go AMG, if you can afford it of course.

We drove one back in December. Believe it or not we actually bought my wifes fiesta instead of the C180. Cost lots less and she preferred the ford. The C180 are nice enough but the performance per $$ is just not worth it.
