Great Car for the Value

I loved this vehicle from the first time I drove it. MPG's are better on the highway than advertised. The only part of the car I didn't care for were the halogen bulbs for the headlights, brow lights, and side markers. Also, not a fan of the Orange/Yellow front side markers. Easily and inexpensively changed all to LED's and couldn't be happier with how clean it all looks now. Can't wait to see how the 4Matic handles in the winter! I'm sure it will be smooth as ever!

Best car i have owned

This car is a pleasure to drive, it's comfortable and quiet. It has plenty of power for all of my needs and it has always been fun to drive. It has never given me any problems, most people are scared to drive German cars due to high maintenance and repair costs but this car has never cost me more then any other car I've owned.

Good starter Mercedes

Nice introduction to the Mercedes family. The newer models will offer better technology and I will enjoy that. But, if you want the ability to say "I own a Mercedes" and you are on a budget - this is the car for you!

Real German Engineering

Outstanding German engineered value - I owned a C300 4matic with all bells and whistles. My first 4wd car... my first German eng. car and i'll never go back - 60K miles without a brake service (dealership was blown away) mostly due to downshifting - the 6 cyl. engine actually did slow down the car - triptronic driving is a must if you have a feel for what this car can do! I just gave it up after a 48 month lease and got into a 2015 C300 (Turbo 4 with more hp) 10 days ago. The two cars are totally different. 2015 is bigger feels less sporty. I miss the old 6 cyl and stick shift triptronic auto. Paddle shifting on the 2015 is useless. I don't miss the old convenience elements like pop up nav/lcd, poor radio reception (tried 3 times to get it fixed under warranty without success), poor bluetooth performance and worst every voice response functionality. I love the 30% less fuel consumption on the 2015. Makes the 2011 seem like a pig. All in all I loved and miss the way the 2011 drove. Should have gone for the 2015 C400 but way over priced for what you get in my opinion!!!

Pretty and Perfect

Not only does the Mercedes Benz C Class look good, it s components are just as great! I am deeply into my music and was astonished to find out that the radio system holds up to 6 CDs as well as the option to connect it to my personal music and/or Pandora while driving. As a mother of two athletes, our family is always on the go to practices and tournaments which means gas and different locations. The mileage on my car is at an extraordinary rate meaning less money to pay for gas and the built in GPS system makes traveling a lot less hectic. I am happy to own this car.

Best car I've driven hands down

The Mercedes Benz C class is the best car I've drive period. A prior BMW owner and the C class is luxury, style and performance. This car is stylish whether on the road or in my driveway and a head turner as you drive by. This vehicle is load with heated seats, dual heater/ac controls for you and your passenger. Bluetooth make making and receiving phone calls easy, with reception clear and crisp. This vehicle hugs the roads on curves and taking corners with excellent pick up. Comfortable leather seats that feel like they conform to your body for a good fit. Sun roof, side mirrors and rear view mirror that automatically dims as dusk and evening approaches. This vehicle also sports a retractable shade for the rear window for your passengers in the back seat. Overall very happy with this vehicle ands would definitely recommend it to friends and family
