The C280 has little to envy other luxury vehicles. The new Flex Service System (FSS) does away with traditional 3,000-mile oil changes and service is only required every 10 to 20 thousand miles. Spark plugs at 100,000 miles. Oozing with elegance, the C280 is a solid, tech-rich machine governed by outstanding safety features. When you add the leather seats, Bose audio system, moon roof, and its spunky V6 engine, the C280 is hard to beat.
It does everything I need it to do

The first time someone asked me how I liked it - I found myself saying "It does everything I need it to do". Which after an extensive search at the time - was I tall order. I was happily amazed. It's a great work car, (work while stuck in traffic) use the integrated phone - great for taking clients and employees - and while working in san fransico - I found what it really could do - just propel itself up hills & navigate wet streets. Comfortable for long trips with the great seats. My back actually feels better when I get out of the car than when I started out the day driving. Great mileage on long trips. I haven't had anything but good experiences.

From day 1, this car has been fun to drive, is great on long trips, and it's fuel efficiency is surprising. Ample back seat room and good traction continually remind me that purchasing this vehicle was a smart move!

Really fun to drive. Love the immediate response when I press the gas. Purchased used w/ 63K miles from a 'mom & pop' dealership (Big Mistake!!!) Stay w/ a larger dealership who offers the MB warranty or you will regret it!! In less than 10 months already replaced the drag link ($500) and condenser ($1200) My independant warrranty covers harly anthing costly.
Great car, exceptional engine.

I bought this car new and I have had no problems. The best feature about this car is the powerful V6. It makes passing on 2 lane roads quick and easy. The outstanding suspension smooths out potholes yet is taut enough to tear through mountain passes. The interior is businesslike and neat. The seats are comfortable enough to travel for around 2 hours, but cross country trips are quite uncomfortable. The controls are well placed, but the radio is hard to use when moving. The trunk is big enough for luggage for 4, and the back seat holds 2 adults comfortably. The only problem with the car is, with the big engine, it has a tendency to understeer, but this can be fixed by power induced oversteer.
