2017 C 300 Cabriolet

We test drove many convertibles and decided that the Merc would fit our lifestyle best of cruising in luxury with the options to steer or accelerate quickly when needed. The dealership experience was great and the dealer's representatives were very helpful. We looked online nationally for a specific color and trim in a sport model that included warranty on a low mileage late model car. Torque on the 4 cylinder turbo is excellent as we were accustomed to driving a 2004 Nissan 350z with 280+ hp. The electronics require some study but the learning is quick and the controls are intuitive. This vehicle had the sport trim with 19 AMG wheels and most of the options but did not include Distronic , Park Assistance, which we would have happily paid for but could not find in our color....... I suggest that a potential buyer view the Carfax carefully for clear title and repairs ....... Ask lots of questions and confirm with Mercedes Customer Service.

Purchased new in ‘17 we still love our 2017 C300 Cabriolet 4matic. The perfect top down car it handles well and in sport mode Aquits itself nicely. While service at the dealership is not cheap we have not had to make any major repairs yet. My only complaint is that the gasket between the front and rear windows pinches and deforms when raising the glass. It hasn’t leaked yet but is a concern. I love this car as a Sunny Day ride. 2024 update- Still loving this car. Technology is getting outdated, no CarPlay or android and no Supercruise but still drives and looks great.

18,000 miles motor blew up

As above, a 62,000 dollar car the motor blows up. The new 9 speed transmission shifts hard and horribly painful.... The transmission needs to be in sports mode all the time just so the car is safe to drive (4 cylinder) I just traded it in for a BMW.... after 20 years of MBZ ownership. Bought the car used 2 months old with 200 miles on it...

I was happy I decided to take the drive to find out about the car. It was worth it. I had a safe and satisfying experience.
