The c 300 runs well and handles niclley on the rough New England roads. We have 27,000 on ours and it makes a thumping souond in the brakes now so it is going into the shop.

2011 Mercedes C300 VIN WDDGF5EB7AF442072 The car went into limp mode Traction Control failed and then the instrument panel turned into a rolling screen with one thing after another failing or deactivated while we were sitting (literally not moving) in Charleston traffic. The car would barely move with the accelerator floored - dangerous at the least unnerving at best...... Returned to Baker Mercedes of Charleston Dealership read below the sales manager's email response below Thank you for taking the time to relate your experience to me. Clearly, that is not how we wish our guests to experience this marvelous brand or our dealership. I know for a fact that this vehicle has been driven by other guests and associates with no issues. Unfortunately, this incredibly complex vehicle operated flawlessly until it didn’t, with you behind the wheel! I certainly understand your trepidation but I would love an opportunity to show you one of the other vehicles we have in stock, confident you would enjoy the vehicle and the experience. He also stated: Have you considered any of the other brands we offer? We represent some of the worlds finest automotive manufacturers. I am personally very impressed with the reliability and durability of the Infiniti brand and I would love the opportunity to demonstrate their vehicles to you. Best part the car is still listed on their website for sale as a CPO ! Shopping Lexus and Acura now

Bought it yesterday and only put 30 miles on it. My previous four new cars are all Japanese and never thought about a european car because of reliability concern. Consumer report recommendes it so I get it. Gethered a few premium compact car ratings side by side. C300 has the highest overall score, especially the noise level rating. Excellent quality inside out. Back seat passenger can easily talk to the multimedia person. Time will tell me if it's reliable.
Make sure to check if subframe has been replaced

I've had my car 12.5 years & plan on driving it the rest of my life. I don't drive much & have only 52,000 miles on it. There is one defect that now has a 20 year unlimited mileage warranty-the subframe. I had mine replaced after 12 years & got reimbursed a few months later after MBUSA extended the warranty. If you plan on buying a used one, if the subframe is good and hasn't been replaced you'll have to monitor it & at the first sign of holes, go to your nearest Mercedes dealer & get it replaced under the warranty. If it has been replaced ask for the bill, since some people replaced their subframes with used parts. I would not buy a Mercedes with a used subframe replacement. .

I'm usually more of a BMW fan, I value the way a car drives over interior or prestige. When it was time to sell my BMW I asked my dad for recommendations to replace it and he suggested this car. I kind of dragged my feet when purchasing it because my experience with Mercedes had been hit or miss in the past. I loved my 04 clk convertible but hated the 08 C300. He assured me the drive got better in the newer ones and I have to say I am pleasantly surprised. The car actually has a pretty sporty drive and is extremely comfortable. There are a few minor issues I personally have such as the base model stereo lacking any type of subwoofer compared to a BMW base stereo. The lack of memory seats can be annoying as well since I swap the car out occasionally with my husband's who is a solid foot taller than me. Outside of that though I actually like the car a lot. I feel safe, the suspension is great, extremely reliable, and it's a very attractive car. It's not enough to turn me to the Mercedes side because I do feel it's a bit overpriced for what you're getting compared to a BMW 3 series, but I'm happy with it and will definitely not rule out Mercedes in the future. Maybe the C63 is in my future.
