The 2013 Mercedes-Benz C-Class’ ride is comfortable. Very comfortable. And quiet too — don’t forget quiet. But if Cars.com reviewer Kelsey Mays were to stop there out of respect for the virtue of “If you don’t have anything nice to say … ,” he wouldn’t be saying much at all about the C-Class, which curiously remains a top seller despite superior sport-sedan competitors. In nearly every other category — interior space, styling, acceleration, fuel economy, brakes and handling — this last-place finisher in Cars.com’s $46,000 Sport-Sedan Challenge is strictly riding on its rep, Mays says.
