Not a Mercedes by any standard
If you don't take out of the city it might work for you. I traded in my GLK350 and I loved it. Just getting up in the miles. It came with run flat tires , no spare and no jack. The tires came with a warning saying that they've were not safe in temperatures under 45 degrees! I had of course purchased this vehicle with a 4 magic so I could use it for winter driving with all season tires. My travel out of town is all 200-300 miles and in desolate areas with no cell service or road service which means that a flat tire could be life threatening in summer or winter weather. Run flat tires are not stocked anywhere close and can not be repaired [non-permissible content removed] The dealer and MB are of no help at all. Can't by a jack or a spare for this vehicle. So if you're looking for a safe car look elsewhere. It is also noisy and bouncy. Not a Mercedes by any standard I'm aware off. You'll also need to study the manual as there is nothing intuitive about anything on this car. Don't be tempted by the styling.

Love this SUV.
Really love this car. Comfortable, quiet, great sound system, and really great gas mileage. On the freeway I can get 29 miles per gallon and around town getting 21+. The mouse is somewhat antiquated but easy to use - I would prefer a touch screen. Love the turbo which allows great acceleration entering the freeway.

Father's day Gift
Just got it as Father's Day gift. Only drove 75 miles (mostly on high way at 70 mph) so far. Got 33 mpg on high way. My old ML got 20 mpg, my BMW X5 got 26 mpg on high way. I've never driven a car having this high gas mileage before, not even a sedan. No complaint here. V4 with 241 hp is still very powerful. Competiters: X3, Q5, RX, MKX, XT5, RDX, QX50 and Macan.

Screeching Brakes - buyers beware
Cold weather locales will no doubt find screeching brake issues. Manufacturer is aware and even though it existed in the 2016 models, the fix still eludes their engineers in the 2017 models. Neighbors hate us and it's forcing me to attempt less braking while backing out of my shared (and loooong) driveway. Take away this issue and this car would be near perfect. Yes, controls are clunky but it can grow on you.

A+ Mercedes
Looked at BMW X3, Audi Q5 and Porsche Macan. All were excellent automobiles. I choose the GLC because it stood out in all the right ways price, options, style and build quality. My advice is not to skimp on some of those options that make owning a car like this pleasurable.
