From Wikipedia:
The Mercedes-Benz C-Class is a compact executive car produced by the
Mercedes-Benz division of Daimler AG. First introduced in 1993 as a replacement
for the 190 range, the C-Class was nicknamed the "Baby Benz" as it was the
smallest model in the marque's lineup, until the 1997 arrival of the A-Class.
The C-Class is built at Mercedes-Benz factories in Sindelfingen and Bremen,
Germany, in Santiago Tianguistenco, Mexico by Mercedes-Benz-Xicotencatl as well
as in Mercedes's factories in Brazil and DaimlerChrysler's South African
factory in East London. The very first W202 C-Class sedan was produced on June
1, 1993, and the second generation W203 C-Class rolled off the assembly line on
July 18, 2000. The third generation W204 C-Class was launched in 2007. The
C-Class is the entry-level offering in Mercedes-Benz's United States lineup.
The C-Class platform has been used for several coupes, including the CLC-Class
(and its predecessor, the C-Class Sportcoupe) and the E-class Coupe (and its
predecessor, the CLK-Class).
Daniel la Rosa (born October 10, 1985 in Hanau, Germany) is a German racing
driver. He has raced in the Formula Renault 3.5 Series and also in the Deutsche
Tourenwagen Masters. He is most well known for getting a podium in the opening
round of the 2007 DTM season at the Hockenheimring. He also was a test driver in
the 2008 Superleague Formula season. He doesn't race full-time in motorsport
anymore.
