2010 Mercedes-Benz C-Class C350 Sport 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 7A)

Review

Extremely solid and seems to be very well built. Great looking especially with the AMG wheels. Interior function is very well thought out. Very solid performer with the sport package. Very new so need more time with the car.

Favorite Features

Handling, brakes and power. COMMAND interface.

Suggested Improvements

Another 30 horses. Or put in the BLUEtech diesel that's available in the E Class.

Review

I went to the "dark side. Coming from BMW 3 series coupe, I decided to try Benz for the first time and wow what a great choice. I love this car. It doesn't have as much power and doesn't handle quite as good as my 335 coupe but damn this car looks good and it has adequate power and handling. Comfortable solid ride which a nice quality sporty interior. No car is even close at this price point in my opinion, bang for buck. My bimmer was $200 more per month!

Favorite Features

Sleek styling. The front on the Sport Model is RIDICULOUS! I love it!!!!!

Suggested Improvements

better fuel mileage. Annoying cruise control stick needs to be shorter. Odd location. Sick of hitting it instead of the blinker bar. LED rear lights should be standard. And the labels on the headlight knob are the only thing that doesnt light up. Makes no sense. Rear could use a facelift..

Review

only one day into my new car and I am not pleased. the C300 really lacks in comfort and room. If your claustrophobic this is not the car for you. The seats are small and uncomfortable. Programming your settings is a choir. I have 3 years on this lease and I am counting the days. Purchased this MB instead of another Chrysler 300C V8 Hemi because of Chryslers Financial state. Personally as far as comfort goes... Maybe in time I will feel different about this MB, but why do I doubt that? "Should have had a V8"

Review

I have been a Camry owner for 11 years and loved it. Decided to take a step up and looked at BMW, Lexus, Acura and Audi and decided on the C-300. It was a bit like Golidlox, the BMW too performance oriented, the Lexus to posh and soft, but found the MB to be pretty much in the middle and like the looks. Loved the ride and looking forward to seeing how it performs in the winter. I also knew that I would be sacrificing something on the mileage side, both with the premium fuel and the larger engine but the trade off has been a fair one. So far I think I made the right decision. The dealership couldn't have been better

Favorite Features

It's definitely a car for someone who does a lot of driving. the seating and cabin comfort are superb, the Harmon Kardon sound system is first rate as well. overall a very simple but smart interior layout.

Suggested Improvements

The rear seating is pretty tight but 95% of the time it's just me driving so it really doesn't matter. the truck space is not huge and it took a while to learn not to stand up with the lid open!!! A few head knocks later I learned to back away. Still would like to see better fuel economy.

Review

Solid ride that keeps getting more enjoyable. Car could use a little more power but looked at many vehicles and felt like the price and equipment were put this car above others. The amg wheel package makes the exterior of the car.

Favorite Features

ride is quite and solid, car seems to hug the road. amg wheels and exterior looks

Suggested Improvements

I keep looking for a sunglass holder and wheel controls are different from other vehicles I have owned

Maybe next model will do justice

2010 Mercedes-Benz C-Class C300 Sport 4dr Sedan (3.0L 6cyl 6M)

Review

Leasing, so exonerated of any worries. Good pulling manners, the star still attracts decent admiration from aspiring debutantes. The design is a mix of the old MB with BMW 3 series features a and a reminder of the old Honda Accord right on the butt (or boot).

Favorite Features

The front and ... the passenger (not the passenger seat) :-) Good handling over 30 mph. Steering to soft under 20 mph.

Suggested Improvements

The designer fell asleep while he was finalizing the back; The fuel consumption really bad for a car of this size. Wind noise from the side mirrors (not a clue why MB pulled the mirrors upwards (not many cars flying low) and the Continental 3 tyres make a very intrusive noise.
