2009 c300 - $32,770

Written by: scgirl1 on Nov 22, 2009 10:55 PM

Walked into the dealership today after reading these blogs and test drove the c300. Been looking at the 328i b/c I had a 2006 that I loved. Wanted to see what the c300 was like and enjoyed it a lot. Still doesn't have the sportiness that the 328i has as there is a delay when you accelerate, but is definitely finished off nicer. (Still bothered by the fake leather, but ... Read More...

Need advice.

Written by: dash5 on Jul 06, 2009 09:34 AM

Was hoping to get some advice on my search. Looking to spend no more than 22k on a used entry level luxury sedan. No more than say 40-50k miles.

Quiet smooth ride. Dampen road noise. ... Read More...

Mercedes-Benz C350 & C280

So I'm Thinking of getting my first Mercedes

Written by: mercyuponme on Jun 16, 2009 09:17 AM

The thing I really want to know is the myth that they cost so much to maintain a myth or truth. I was looking at a 2006 C280, certified pre-owned of course, and seems like a really nice car, well within my budget, but want to know if I'm going to be out alot of money trying to keep it maintained. I had a friend that told me it was $75 for oil change. So, hopefully some of you ... Read More...

Wrong Size Tire - Flew off on freeway

Written by: joannaw on Mar 11, 2009 10:54 AM

I have a 2006 Mercedes C230. 3 weeks ago I got a flat tire, passenger front. I took it in and it was unrepairable. I bought a new tire and the tire company put it on. At the time, I did not know it was the wrong size. My fronts are 17’s and my backs are Profile 19’s. They replaced the passenger front with a 19. So I was driving on 3 19s and 1 17. Yesterday on the freeway going 65mph, ... Read More...
