Great but not so great

Steep learning curve for the instruments in general and navigation system in particular. Wish they had just used CarPlay, which has native smart phone integration. Programming the nav while driving is extremely distracting. Voice recognition is terrible. Lacks alternate route capability. No advice on traffic avoidance. I do like the freeway advices on services available at oncoming off ramps, but google maps or apple maps are much better. Headrests are superb -- all the other cars these days have head rests far too forward in response to recent federal standards, including the E-class, giving me a pain in the neck just sitting in the parking lot. But the seats are VERY firm. Park bench firm, and not comfortable for long drives. Steering and handling are very light and precise. Fold-down seats make for cavernous cargo capacity. I lost $10,000 in resale value the first year, which is ridiculous, as this car seems like it's built to last forever and is very high quality. After a little over two year, the car is worth half of what I paid for it new, even considering the $5,000 end of model year discount.

Good but not Great

Could improve technology features, should have more bells & whistles for price. Sport package should come with more features considering the price bump it adds. Like it but not over the moon about it and feel that I'm paying much more than I should be for what I got. Was also pushed into this specific vehicle with a lot of false promises and inaccurate information which is extremely upsetting and I will never go back to that dealership again.

I’ve had my c300 for 6 months and have put about 6000 miles on it so far. The engine has plenty of power, and I never feel like I’m in need of more. Interior comfort was the big selling point for me on this car. The seats are very comfortable and supportive, and the interior feels sturdy and well put together. I use it for commuting and it’s been fantastic in that respect. I average around 30 mpg in a mix of city and highway driving, and average 35-36 mpg in eco mode on longer highway drives. ***Update February 2023*** Still loving the car, no issues at all except for the run flat tires that I replaced with non-runflats. The run flats don't seem to last more than 20-30k miles and since mine is an AWD model you have to replace all 4 at the same time which could get quite pricey. Maintenance costs have been consistent with other German makes. Not cheap by any means but not outlandish if you can find a good independent mechanic.

Great car with outstanding looks and features

Bought this car to replace my 2014 W204 which was a good car but way behind in style and technology. This car comes standard with a lot of nice feature rich items for safety and technology. I am very impressed with the style of this car, it has definitely turns head especially in my coupe version. I have had zero problems so far with this car but that does not surprise me since the W204 had zero issues as well. I drive my cars pretty hard but it doesn't seem to phase the Benz. Overall I am very happy with the design and comfort of the interior as well as the features this car has to offer. I do wish they offered over the air software updates because the system is starting to age. Very reliable car though, and although it's no C63 or C43 it is plenty powerful for day to day use. Great car especially if you can get it used for a deal.

Beautiful car. Very good power for a v6. Convertible is so much fun. Like most the trunks are smaller. A owned a 2015 C400 so the engine is similar along with most interior and body aspects. The upgraded exaust is a must. Snap crackle and pop. In Sports plus the gas mileage is poor. I paid close to 80k with all the options. Thought about the 63s cab but the all wheel drive was a draw in case I need to drive in weather and especially snow.
