This car has 162,000 miles on it. You would never know it to look at it or drive it. It is so quiet that when you stand outside it and the engine is running, you can’t tell. Almost all of themiles are hiway Miles, as I used it heavily for business travel. I got over 31mpg on the highway. The car doesn’t even have a door ding on it! I bought an extended bumper to bumper warranty for $80/mo, which lasts as long as I continue to pay the fee, and it is transferable. The interior is as clean as the exterior. The performance is beyond believe. The rate at which it accelerates can get you out of dangerous traffic situations on the freeway, or anywhere else. It has a hookup for an iPod, has Bluetooth, and plenty of room. I’m 6’6”, and can drive it with my legs fully extended. It will make a u-turn in the smallest radius I’ve ever seen, on any street without having to use reverse. It’s been judiciously maintained, no accidents, and no major repairs. I have only put Michelin tires bought at a Mercedes dealership on the car. With the offset build of the suspension, meaning the rear tires are one inch wider than the front tires, and AWD, I have driven this car through three nasty blizzards, and never lost my footing, even when cars around me were spinning into the ditch. This is one great car!

I live up at Lake Tahoe, the C300 has performed flawlessly at altitude in snow, ice, hot weather, cold weather... Better ride and quieter than my 03 BMW XI 3-series. Solid handling and no maintenance issues to date.

One Year Review - Update

Had the car for one year and this is my second review. Made only minor adjustments to my ratings to up the rating for exterior styling and reliability. Car has been bulletproof; has been in the dealership only for routine service and one damaged tire. The car isn't particularly exciting but it has a certain intangible quality. Like an expensive suit, I feel like a better person when I drive this car. The ride in the sport model is perfect and I like the steering feel. The car is exceptionally smooth and quiet, and the seats, while firm, are extremely comfortable on long drives. MB-TEX is an asset... not an ounce of wear, which you can't say about leather. I want a new E Class!

I've owned the 2009 C300 4matic since august of 2011. My certified warranty ran out at the end of August 2013. I took my car in for routine maintenance for a transmission flush. Just 3 months later my transmission is making a weird grinding noise, at first I thought it was coming from my front wheel bearings but after inspection from the dealership it turns out its the bearings in my transmission! I was shocked to hear that I needed to replace my transmission at 83K! I purchased a Mercedes hoping I would get many thousand miles from it! I take very good care of my cars . Not sure I will buy another benz! Otherwise I loved the car ...beautiful car

MBNA Corp has no regard for customers out of warranty

I was happy my C300 Sport 4matic while it was under warranty. A few technical problems (mostly w/navi) but otherwise good. Recently, at 53,00 miles and 46 months old, my inside door handle broke making it impossible to exit the car. It is $1200 to repair this plastic part (must replace entire pannel)! The dealer said it was out of warranty and suggested calling MBNA corporate. Both the agent assigend to my case and his supervisor were rude and could not care less that this would have been covered 45 days earlier, or that it was my family's 13th Benz. I told him I would never buy another - he didn't care. At least the dealer agreed to split the repair cost. Next time Porsche!
