This is really a nice car to drive. My favorite feature is the coffer cup that comes up and remind s you to take a break. Bought it new, and the only issue we've had is the ruin flat tires don't seem to really last. Highly recommended if you're in the market for nice small luxury sedan.

Great car, engine is quiet. One negative, I do not like the position of the navigation system. Some of the questions is N/A as I only have the car three weeks and am only driving 5 miles to the bus station.

Beautiful interior

I own the 2017 coupe and the ride is harsher than the sedan but not that bad. I compared it to BMW 4 Series, Audi A4, Lexus ES and the Cadi ATS. I am picky about details and ended up with the C300 Coupe Edition 1 with the flat mango paint. The ride was quieter and the interior blew away the competition. If you are not conscious about taking extreme caution with you are and the paint, DO NOT buy the mango flat paint. It is durable but once you scratch or rub it too hard, it will shine some and then there is NO WAY to get it back to matte without basically painting the whole side of the car. The run flat tires are terrible. I do have some front end noise and not sure if it is from the tires or wheel bearings, only 25,000 miles. The interior is absolutely stunning and gas mileage is incredible. Some what of a fun car to drive and it gets quite a bit of attention. This is probably because of the matte finish. This is my first MB and a little concerned about future reliability but I'm really easy on my cars so hopefully it will be good to me. Still under warranty and the dealership is incredible.

Amazing to look at, just don’t touch anything

I bought a c300 coupe about a year ago and I just sold the car a few days ago, this car is so unbelievably beautiful and the interior matches, everyone I showed the car absolutely loved it, I bought mine when it was already 6 years old and had 60k miles so I wasn’t expecting it to be perfect, but I had gone from a 1999 Lexus ls400 before this that had over 150k miles and that car was built so solid and held up amazing in the 23 years, I cannot say the same for the c300, this car is unbelievable rough on any type of road, grinds going into reverse, shifts like it’s about rip its out apart, and rattles itself to pieces going over 65 miles per hour, if you touch any part of that interior with any amount of pressure it will crack and make a horrible noise. As comparison, I just replaced it with a used Kia soul and somehow it feels 10 times more well built, obviously the Kia soul is hideous but it’s at least well made and feels solid, other than the interior quality the car looked brand new even after I put another 15k miles on the car, I had to replace a piece of the interior that was this aluminum looking piece that was just plastic with a vinyl wrap, but from the heat started to peel off completely but I could cheaply replace it and it was fine.
