My 2009 C300 sports 4matic is good in general. After driven 16,000 miles, I heard noise at highway speed. I took it to the dealer and they could not find anything wrong but charged me $50 for the check. 2 months later, I still felt its too noisy at high speed. I took the car to a different dealer and was told that the continent tire making the noise. They recommended to replace the four tires with a price over $1000. I couldn't believe the news. I paid over $40,000 for the car with expensive package and assumed Mercedes-Benz had the quality free of worry. It turned out the car used a cheap tire on it. With only 16,000 miles of normal city driving, the tires need to be replaced!
Luxurious ride and powerful acceleration.

My 2011 C300 Sport has 178,000 km on it and still runs as smooth as butter. Despite it being an entry level car into Mercedes, and almost 11 years of age from the time of this writing, it still surprisingly delivers a modern and sophisticated design and engineering that still catches people's eyes all the time. Its acceleration is very smooth and quick, definitely feels quicker than 228 horsepower. Feels like high-end v6 engine accelation power that comes from a G37 or IS250, but with more fuel efficiency (3.0L). This engine's acceleration power and response has put up a real challenge for cars on the road from my experience driving this car. If you want this car to be comfortable, quiet and get a reasonably luxurious feeling, this car can also provide that sensation. It comes with comfortable seating infrastructure, smile-creating interior design, efficient heating/cooling system, smooth 7-speed automatic transmission experience, and astounding Harmon/Kardon sound system. (Navigation and DVD system may be available depending on the packages in the C300). Overall, if you're looking for an affordable entry-level luxury/sports car that you can add into your life, have reasonable maintenance expenses, have solid reliability scores, and get looks from people all the time, this is definitely the right car for you. In my opinion, it would be more preferable to pick over the 3-Series or the A4 for the year of 2011. Definitely more preferable than JDM luxury car manufacturers for 2011 as well as it holds the most impeccable engineering out of all.

At 78,000 miles everything fell apart. All the oxygen and fuel sensors went kaput. Leaks at the CV joints and oil filter housing. All of this messed up the spark plugs Severe frame rust. Computer software required upgrades. In July the dealer told us it was in great shape. Six months later the repair bills will exceed $8,000 Considering the very low residual price, the $1,000 annual oil change, the 18 mpg using premium fuel, it was a very poor economic choice. The dealer was not great - he wanted to replace an entire seat belt when WD 40 easily fixed it in my garage. Still, it gave a nice ride, and was a decent car until it was not. Now I believe that it belongs in the car crusher If you must drive an MB, either lease it from the dealer or trade it in about a minute before the factory warranty expires.

Wanted to share my experience. Recently sold the E46 330ci and bought a W204 200CGI and found these useful features that the E46 don't have: - Seat memory for both driver and passenger side. E46 is driver seat only. - Power adjustable steering column and head rest with memory. - Seat has power adjustable lumbar support. - Reverse auto-tilt of passenger-side mirror can be adjusted and memorized. - Head restrain will lock during impact. - Seat belt automatically pulls tight after engaging. - Automatic cabin light has a button to enable or disable.

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.
