Happy with our Used 2013 Mercedes C 300 Sport

We purchased a 2013 Mercedes C 300 Sport for our Son. The cleanest used car we have ever purchased. AJ brought the Mercedes by the house for a demo/ride, then came to my office to finalize the deal and process the paperwork. Absolutely the BEST customer service we have ever experienced. AJ did a great job with presenting the Mercedes and following up on all our questions and concerns. This is the 4th used car we have purchased from Wickstrom Auto Group and have never been disappointed.

THIS CAR IS THE WORSE

The car can’t drive it shut completely off. And I am still paying for it. THEY ARE THE WORSE. There’s not a lot of mileage on the car and now it’s completely DEAD. Benz is the worse.

Technology is older,car feels aged.

I purchased CClass but didn’t realize the car was a compact sedan until I tried to put my family in the car. I should’ve got the EClass. I wish I would’ve done more research on stereo equipment. I felt like I went back in time with only one USB connector. 6 disc changer. Car has no Led lighting. I didn’t check the tire size but after purchase I realized the car had the wrong size.

Extremely reliable & drives well.

This has been a great car to own. Affordable luxury and drives well. Has required nothing more than normal maintenance. Would recommend this car to those desiring an affordable Mercedes.

94k and still going...never missed a beat.

This car is hands down a work of art. In a traditional sense. The revised 3.5L in my C300 AMG sport pack provides adequate power while providing decent MPG numbers. Remember this is a V6 vs. all of the 4cyl turbos that are flooding the market nowadays, I prefer the V6 for reliability. I purchased this car in 2015 as a 2013 model with 12k on the dash and driven this car well past 94k currently, within that time, this car has never missed a beat. It literally starts up each and every time with ZERO issues mechanically. Everything works as it should, however, I would say that the low profile sport tires are the weak point. I go through these on a regular basis and it's not because of what I'm doing, it's because of the pavement on NYC streets that destroy the rims and tires. I went thru 3 tires in 1 month due to potholes and other terrible road conditions. The windshield wipers are another story as well...they only like Bosch. Don't try anything else. In all, I wouldn't think twice about driving this car from NYC to L.A tomorrow, it's that reliable and I have that much confidence in this cars build quality and performance. Is it a C63 with crazy power? No, it wasn't meant to be that, what it was meant to be is a reliable, awd vehicle that provides years of trouble free headaches that you'd find on other vehicles. Take care of this car and it will take care of you and your wallet. Also, oil changes are every 10k but I've been doing them at 8k to be on the safe side. I would recommend this to anybody looking for a great all around vehicle that is of the Benz status and lives up to what your buying, just take care of the car and it will take care of you. If you can, try and get the AMG pack, they aren't in every dealer lot and have the 2tone interior trim which really makes it stand out, the red seatbelts are a giveaway, I have the Nav with Logic7 Harmon kardon sound system, sunroof, rear spoiler, 18' staggered AMG rims and other AMG touches to boot, which include a factory lowered ride height about 1.5' for better handling. .

Never buy a Mercedes

Piece of crap. I bought a 2013 certified pre owned in Dec 2016. Only have 77k in it and have dumped almost 4k into repairs (no fault of my own).

Perfect Car except Engine Issue

Apparently one oil change that we paid for wasn't performed. Metal shavings were found in engine. We were going to trade this car this year for a truck anyway. Until this happened it was a great car. Fun to drive and looks good. Well taken care of but Oil Change place didn't do their job so now we are selling it to someone who can change out engines or repair the current one. Less than 50% of what we would have asked without engine problem.

Another great Mercedes

Just had this outstanding used Mercedes for a few weeks but it looks and drives great. It’s bright red and my wife loves to zip around town in this “spiffy” little sporty model.
