2005 Mercedes-Benz C-Class consumer reviews

Back in February, we were looking to buy a Mercedes and we felt the '05 c230 was the best first time option for us. We had to choose between buying a new lesser quality car or a pre-owned. We settled for the MB but with that element of doubt that comes with buying a car that others drove and cared for. When I looked at some of the comments @ Cars.com, they were quite frank and spoke highly of the MB 05 Kompressor. What I saw helped me to decide and I promised that if the car lived up to my expectations, I would come back and post a comment. If the reader is in the same position like I was, let me tell you, my car is great! It's small, I would say for a couple maybe with a couple of small kids but it's very fast for a 4-cylinder turbo, it's quite stable cornering, and has great looks! The MB design is practical, sporty and yet simple. The only negatives r that there is no MP3 connection and even though there are phone wiring and buttons, it costs about $1.5K I was told to have it connected. The trunk space is quite good for a small car and when you lift the hood, you can't help but like what you see. The sound system, either radio or CD (with 6-CD Changer) is great. So, if you r wavering, and the mileage is not too high, go for it, you would almost certainly not regret it. So, I fulfilled my promise to lend a hand to anyone trying to decide, like I was three months ago. Drive well and enjoy! T. in the sun.

This car is one of the best I have ever owned. It handles as good as it looks. Love the styling, handling, and ease of maintenance. Came with all the features I needed and then some. Still looks as good as the day I drove it out of the showroom.

engine realibility in question. expensive maintenace. tires non rotaional. the intake manifold breaks at 49,500.

THIS CAR IS COOL I LIKED IT THE DAY I BAUGHT IT. ITS GOTTEN ME EVERY WHER I WANTED TO GO. ITS PERFORMED THE WAY I WANTED IT TO. ITS ALSO RACED ON A TRACK THE WAY I WANTED IT TO, OR BETTER. OVVERALL THIS CAR IS THE BEST LUXURY SPORTS CAR, ESPACIALLY THE 08

This is my third Mercedes and I just love the way it handles. It almost drives itself...my husband always wants to borrow it. The ride is smooth, and quiet.

You will enjoy it you dont know what you are missing drive it today. Fill your review. I am serious ,it hugs the road at turns. YOU WILL LOVE DRIVING. SEE YOU ON THE ROAD.

Great fun to drive, very quick off the line Quite and just plain fun. The interior is clean and freah, use of alum. trim is just right. Seats support well even in tight turns.
