2011 C300 Sport V6 w/optional 7-speed automatic non-AWD

2011 Mercedes-Benz C-Class C300 Luxury 4dr Sedan (3.0L 6cyl 7A)
My review after 3.5 years. Been an excellent reliable car. Still has the classic C-class Sport look that can compete with any of the new models.
Had one issue and that was the power door lock passenger side which sounded like a shotgun when it repeatedly locked and unlocked, over and over again. Issue resolved at the dealer.
Love the looks of it. The sports front with the … LED's, the crisp side. Wheels are nice wish I had 4 out of the 2015 accessories book. Steering wheel looks, feel, and function is tops. 2-tone dash colors are pleasing to the eye. Seats are a bit firm but that's a good thing for my bad back. Dealer tips: Charge less for your glorified oil changes.
Luxury vs. Sport model

2011 Mercedes-Benz C-Class C300 Luxury 4dr Sedan (3.0L 6cyl 7A)
The car is great but our hardest decision was Luxury vs. Sport.
While the Sport seems most popular, this is why we decided on the Luxury.
1. We keep cars for 100,000 miles or 10 years, whichever comes first.
The Luxury is a more traditional look so we thought it would 'last' longer.
2. The ride is stiff, maybe a little too stiff in the Sport.
3. The tires are different sizes on the … Sport so can't be rotated.
4. The ground effects stuff on the sport looks alittle edgy, and we don't have curb cutouts in our hood so we have to jump an angled curb.
Looks like the ground effects stuff is a little closer to the ground.
5.
This one is really shallow!
Like seeing the star from inside
Great little Benz

Bought this C300 in Oct 11 and got a fair deal as it was the end of the year.
Received 10% disc off MSRP which is good as in our area the dealer has little competition.
This is our 7th Merc. and I have to say for the money it is a quality Benz.
It is the smallest we have had so you do need to lower expectations. It is not a S Class.
From the two front seats it has a smooth ride and good … performance. The fit and trim are outstanding and the car is quiet.
The only thing that I have found that maybe a problem is that if you have more than two people to cart around the folks in the back need to be short as the head room and leg room are very tight if the front seats are set far to the rear.
Very Impressive.

We just brought 2011 Mercedes Benz C300 Sport sedan. Love it. Beautiful car! The car is quite and handling very well. Feel secure and solid. Get a lots of attention on the road. Great pricing and peace of mind. Black on black with L.E.D running lights. Moon roof come with it. We compare with BMW 3 series, Infiniti G sedan, and Lexus 350is and go with Mercedes Benz. We go to Edmund.com to … shop our Mercedes and got $1400 below dealer invoice. With in few hours local Mercedes call us back. Thank you Edmund for saving us time and money.
