Canadian tuning specialists SR Auto Group have a cool event going on called Fitment Friday, where they present a fresh set of wheels every week. The latest has been done as a joint venture with Reinart Design in Hong Kong and centers around the best compact executive sedan Mercedes has ever built, the W205 C-Class.
This bad boy is the 2015 model year C300, equipped with a 2-liter turbo engine that's good for 241 hp. In the US, it comes with a standard all-wheel drive and a 7-speed gearbox for the princely sum of $41,000. Ouch!

For this project, the wheel chosen was PUR Wheels' RS04, finished in gloss rose gold. They are 19 inches in diameter and a subtle, elegant design that works well with the gloss white paint, Basics lowering system and the AMG Line body kit. Just don't park it anywhere near a curb!

The son of an S-Class

OK, the W205 is still not in the same luxury league as the S-Class, but it's got the best interior in the segment, all finished in brushed metals and fine leathers. The wheelbase is also longer, which means it rides well and handles like a bigger car than the W204.

Besides standing head above shoulders over the whole executive segment in terms of class, the C-Class is also brilliant in terms of design and ever the "basic" C300 does a great job at looking like an AMG car, thanks to its low chin and metallic rear diffuser. Sexy!

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
