Great car but...

2011 Mercedes-Benz C-Class C300 Luxury 4MATIC 4dr Sedan AWD (3.0L 6cyl 7A)
Overall this car is pretty amazing. I would recommend this car to anyone that is looking for "affordable luxury". Be prepared to spend a lot of time at the gas station. I've only been able to carve out 21mpg at best on the highway. Back and forth to work consumes a 1/4 tank per day. Other than the less than stellar mpg's it's a great car.
It's an MB.

I wanted a luxury car and my budget was just about enough to cover C class.
I am happy that I got it. It has been about a month now.
I am biased for MB (I didn't even look at other options like BMW or Lexus).
An MB is an MB!
The drive is very good.
I actually got the sport version first but gave it back next day because it was too rough for my comfort.
I could feel a penny on the … road.. I guess I am not a sports car person. I am glad I exchanged it for the luxury version.
btw, this is a luxury car so expect to spend some extra every month for premium gas, and a thirsty, but fast, engine.
but if you are buying a luxury car, it is part of equation.
My first MB and it's a winner.

2011 Mercedes-Benz C-Class C300 Luxury 4MATIC 4dr Sedan AWD (3.0L 6cyl 7A)
After 1000 miles I can only say that it's been a pleasant experience.
After driving BMW 3-series and Acura TL, this car is quieter, smoother and more comfortable, without the built in "sports car" bounces.
Have Premium I Package which has some but not all of the goodies of the prior cars yet at less cost for the lease.
Can live without the NAV (got a Garmin, which is transferable) and … the Premium II package ($$).
Fit and finish are excellent.
Engine is underpowered for the weight and the rear seats and trunk are short on space.
Seldom carry passengers; so they are slighly inconvenienced for a short time. Could use technology updates in communication area, like Bluetooth enhancement.
Still going strong

This is my 1st MB, and I will definitely consider another one. It has been very reliable and a joy to drive.
