Lovely Ride, technology moderate
its a great car. be careful and try out the multimedia entertainment device. voice activated navigation etc is a bit complicated and does not work as well as you may be used to with google map on your iPhone. maybe airplay option is better. The acceleration is very sensitive and gives a jerk everytime you increase speed, and not a very smooth ride, unless you use cruise control

Love My GLC
Shoppers should know that Mercedes Benz is the best made car in the world. Nowadays MB cars cost the same as any other car out there to keep and maintain. Any MB dealer treats you better than most other dealers.

Enormous disappointment
"DONT BUY IT unless technology, innovation and the cool factor are more important than simplifying the use of your vehicle for intuitive and enjoyable driving performance. The learning curve is beyond insulting, and the most ordinary functions are way too complex and time-consuming. That applies to navigation/choosing a destination (which has taken me as much as 40 miles out of my way), connecting to my iTunes music, controlling the interior temperature, even the ridiculously complex dashboard functions. I drove Atlanta-Knoxville and back for Christmas and the audio on my navigation suddenly disappeared (phone call to dealer couldn't figure it out so I used Google maps). I never knew how fast I was going because overnight on the road the controls went from miles to kilometers, and the appropriate dashboard function would not convert while I was on the highway (which is when I realized it). My recent trip Atlanta-Philadelphia was even worse. Frustrations are endless--like who would think that three knobs virtually on top of each other to the left of steering wheel (cruise control, steering wheel adjustment, and turn signal) was a good idea? You're driving on a trip, cruise control at 70, the speed limit slows down, you reach for cruise control to bring it down and you hit the turn signal. Or vice versa. Remember you can't SEE these knobs as they are hidden by the steering wheel. Some things could SO easily have been simplified if that were Mercedes' emphasis rather than "how high-tech can we make it?" The hands-on tutorial at the dealership was like 1 marble in a bowl of 100 in terms of how much it covered--but you don't know that until you're out on the road on your own. This is a lovely car and has a very smooth ride, but it's like a computer lab on wheels, not what I'd hoped for in my first-ever luxury car. I traded it in after 4 months on a new Subaru Outback--I love it, and things which takes 8 steps in the GLC 300 can be done in 2 steps in the Subaru.

The Old Benz ain't what it used to be
There are many problems with the 300 AWD. One of those problems starts with the Tires that come the new Vehicle. Run-flat tires allows you to go to a repair station but beware, if you are at speeds of more than 45 miles per hour, you may be in some trouble controlling the vehicle while moving any faster. The Front Seat and room to move around with your phone hook up, cup holder are a joke. (two people up front bump elbows often) I feel like I'm in a race car when in driving position for driving. Had to replace all 4 tires at 20,000 miles because normal driving wears them out kind of quickly. Seats are designed for 5 people but, the middle back seat put the passenger too high for any comfort. Being dissatisfied about the Vehicle in almost every category. I went back to see if we could trade it after 2 years and we were told, its not worth enough. We surmised that the vehicle with 19,000 miles 2 years old was worth less than most other cars with the same amount of wear. It is a shame that the fine vehicle I bought in 2000 has become a high price low end vehicle. As soon as I can, I will trade this for a better car/model. After 4 different MB's we have just given up on this "high price Chevrolet" If you want to wait until December you can buy ours from a used car lot, that lot certainly won't be Mercedes Benz.

Ok but not what we expected
We found the GLC 300 SUV to be very noisy on the highway and had control issues during windy conditions. Also there may be a continuing problem with brake noise. Other aspects of the vehicle were excellent.
