This car never fails to excite me! I've enjoyed each and every of the 34,000 miles I've driven it over the past 3 years (I purchased it in 2013 with 9,000 miles on the clock). One word of caution though - if you need to drive it in the snow you'd best get winter tires or look for a C350 4Matic. It's a great road trip car, commuter car, or a back roads car. No matter where I take it I always have a blast behind the wheel! It's been extremely reliable with no warranty issues, although I did buy a 3 year, 75,000 mile extended warranty just in case. Would I buy it again? You bet I would!

So I used to be all about BMW and nothing else. I came into some money and started looking at these a little bit because I was getting tired of the same old design with BMW. So far this car has lasted way longer than all of the BMW's Ive had, there has been no major mechanical issues so far. My BMW would have been out of commission by now hands down, I get compliments on the car all the time, and after I installed my Amp, Sub, and Apple CarPlay I pretty much lived in that thing! I can't wait to hear what the whole driving experience is like after im done sound deadening it. Anyway, this car is a total must buy!! It has the take-off power you'll need (and even a little extra with the sport option), the flashiness to keep everyone looking, and is very reliable. To all BMW owners out there, you will not be let down if you decide to make the switch like I did trust me!!!!!!!

Perfect Car

My 2012 C350 is the perfect car. Solid, comfortable, quick with fine steering and handling and excellent brakes. The car has been very reliable and gets decent gas mileage. It is now 8 years old and feels brand new. I have no plans to replace it anytime soon. The newer C Class Mercedes cars don’t come close. The 300 horsepower 6 cylinder engine makes all the difference! It is a true driver’s car.

Terrific Ride, but no excuse for plastic seats

The performance, comfort and style of this vehicle are delightful, and my friends are jealous. I love the responsiveness of the accelerator, the way the transmission holds the car back going down a steep hill, and the traction and stability on curves. Best yet, long drives are not a problem with the C-class. It's a joy to be behind the wheel of this thing.

Costly repair popped up right after 50,000 miles (right after the warranty expires). Repair is going to cost over $4K. MB has problems with this issue. It seems similar to the issue in the class action from 2012 in Northern District of California.
