Great car but...

Overall this car is pretty amazing. I would recommend this car to anyone that is looking for "affordable luxury". Be prepared to spend a lot of time at the gas station. I've only been able to carve out 21mpg at best on the highway. Back and forth to work consumes a 1/4 tank per day. Other than the less than stellar mpg's it's a great car.

It's an MB.

I wanted a luxury car and my budget was just about enough to cover C class. I am happy that I got it. It has been about a month now. I am biased for MB (I didn't even look at other options like BMW or Lexus). An MB is an MB! The drive is very good. I actually got the sport version first but gave it back next day because it was too rough for my comfort. I could feel a penny on the road.. I guess I am not a sports car person. I am glad I exchanged it for the luxury version. btw, this is a luxury car so expect to spend some extra every month for premium gas, and a thirsty, but fast, engine. but if you are buying a luxury car, it is part of equation.

After 1000 miles I can only say that it's been a pleasant experience. After driving BMW 3-series and Acura TL, this car is quieter, smoother and more comfortable, without the built in "sports car" bounces. Have Premium I Package which has some but not all of the goodies of the prior cars yet at less cost for the lease. Can live without the NAV (got a Garmin, which is transferable) and the Premium II package ($$). Fit and finish are excellent. Engine is underpowered for the weight and the rear seats and trunk are short on space. Seldom carry passengers; so they are slighly inconvenienced for a short time. Could use technology updates in communication area, like Bluetooth enhancement.

This is my 1st MB, and I will definitely consider another one. It has been very reliable and a joy to drive.

I love this car. Period. Roll credits. ..I have had a pretty wide range of vehicles throughout my life, but there's nothing that compares to driving a 'Benz'. It is in a class by itself. Even other brands in it's class cannot compare equally to even the most affordable Mercedes offering; the C-Class. It has exactly that; class. Even more than that, it has strong engineering, attention to detail, comfort, power and much more. Even a 'used' Mercedes-Benz will more than likely have been meticulously maintained and looked after before you've gotten your turn with it. If you have the opportunity to buy one, even once in your life, do it. Overall, you won't regret it. Not to say it doesn't have it's Cons, because there are a few, but with some planning and general know-how, they can be managed. 1. Maintenance is not cheap on a world class car. Be prepared to either pay large sums for a Certified MB dealer to fix whatever goes wrong, or be savvy enough to know where to buy equivalent grade parts and install yourself. It can be done. If you've owned or driven any Euro or non-American brand car and done the maintenance yourself, it's no different with only this one exception; you will need a MB grade code reader and resetter. Do the research, some run under $500, some run well over. You'll need one to reset maintenance notifications within the cars robust computer system. 2. You will get every Tom, Dick and more of a d@#$ that will want to pass you and be just about as inconsiderate a driver to you as you'll ever have to deal with. Something about an MB says to other drivers that you think you're better than they are. If you have a little arrogance to you, this car will easily confirm that for them short of them have top of the line Corvettes, Mustangs, etc. Even most of them, you can hold your ground with. High end AMG owners scoff at the 0-60 in 7.1 seconds the C300 can run at.. but there aren't many cars, used especially, that can boast that. This car does exactly that. You've been warned. It IS addicting, but can get quite expensive at the inquest of Johnny Law. 3. Other than minor annoyances that you really tend to overlook because you're just in awe and appreciation of this finely built and tuned machine.. fade into oblivion when you consider how nice these cars are and how fun they are to drive and be seen in. I personally don't know that I could ever go back to driving something of a lesser class now. It would truly feel like falling from grace.
