very luxurious

I went from owning a mini cooper to owning a Mercedes-Benz. The seats are far more comfortable and have all of the extra perks .

This is my second Mercedes. Wouldn't buy another

Love my car but C-class is not designed for large or tall people. Not much head room. If could've afforded, would have purchased an E-class or MLk.

Nicest car I've owned

This car is nice, it has good looking interior and exterior but I wish it was a little bit faster but things can always be added.

Don?t be afraid of German Automobiles

The c350 4matic coupe is AWD and has been tested for decades. Mercedes designed and built the first AWD back in history. And has continued to improve upon this driveline. Let?s face it. Everyone has done their best at ripping off MB technology. So if you are thinking of making a move into your fave Mercedes go for it !! You will take your comfort and driving experience to a whole new level

Great car that looks more expensive than it is!!

Really enjoy driving the C300. Smoother ride than BMWs and doesn't have the whiplash effect when you accelerate. Decent on gas mileage. Nice interior design in the 2012s and newer years/models. If you can find a good deal with low miles, jump all over it! Clean and detail the car well and it will look much more expensive than it really is!

Be careful with BAD time chain cost $5,000

The interior & exterior are nice for being the low end of their models. ran good until at 41,000 miles ignition hesitated. took it to Benz dealer was the timing chain and cam shafts cost $5000. No other shops , that claimed to work on Benz, could do the job. Don't get hooked on a vehicle that is NOT dependable ...very disappointed , read about other peoples with same problems . Also many years backs they had this time of problems in like 2006 and other models which they recalled. However, they will not recall these newer models, they do not care , meaning Mercedes benz, so much for prestige. NOTE: purchased car with 9,000 miles.

The c350 is one of the nicest luxury cars ever

The c350 is one of the nicest luxury cars ever, I never had problems with this car. It's really smooth on the road and it's really fast.
