Office workers in the capital drifted to windows overlooking M exico's Independence Angel Monument and filtered out to the street where a brass band played a special rendition of the anthem. In Bahrain, restaurant chef R o m ald o M a rtin e z , 45, o f Acapulco, was too busy to join in the worldwide rendition.

Mercedes-Benz follows suit like other manufacturers changing their model line up over the years to comer a market for a new breed of consumers. It was design to scoop up the young, affluent population to become lifelong Benz customers. Its C-Class offers performance, sporty style, and an affordable price. The C-CIass sport sedans have firmer suspensions, racy body cladding, 17-inch alloy wheels with high performances tires. Transmis sions include an optional five-speed automatic that can also be used as a manual sans clutch or the standard six-speed manual. The C Class hatchback coupe has a supercharged 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine tuned to 189 hp. Noteworthy mechanical tools aboard include power rack and pinion steering for precise turning control plus power- assisted disc brakes tied to anti-lock and traction control systems The C23O offers a view of the sky from front to rear passengers to enjoy the stars. It is difficult to recline the front seats forward to allow the rear k Fremont i ’ i - ± C h il d passengers entry into the rear seating. Although the C23O offers many standard leatures like the 6-disc CD changer located in the glove compartment, they will need to improve the stereo system for the younger consumer, rh e( 230 Kompressor is a classic Benz with a balance of ride quality and handling. It is a pleasure to drive with its smooth, powerful engine and responsive automatic transmission. The C23O will be satisfying to the driver that maintains speeds within the law but for the power hungry driver, it will lack in performance.
