Great comfort in a terrific looking automobile.

Size is perfect for us. The trunk is ample and the driving and passenger seats are extremely comfortable. The technology is fantastic. The car is very peppy.

My first Mercedes Benz, Great car but....

I like almost everything about the car, comfort, handling, performance and looks are all great but I am having a returning issue with the front brakes. This car was a dealer loaner and I purchased it with about 10,000 miles on it. At 28,000 miles I noticed pulsing in the front during braking. The dealer said the rotors were warped and replaced the rotors and pads at a cost of $703.00. At around 38,000 miles I am getting pulsation in the front again. I am retired and do not drive the car hard nor do I brake hard. I have moved so the original dealership I purchased the car from will not be involved, but I did contact them and the service manager said the parts were guaranteed for 12 months or 12,000 miles, but I have been on several trips and the car has 43,000 miles on it now, so I will bet any type of guarantee is toast. I purchased this vehicle with the thought that I would not have these issues to deal with but life often has a different plan. Basically it is a great car if the brake issues were not reoccurring.

Fabulous cat

This car meets all my needs. This is the second one I have owned. My husband and I both drive a C300. Happy commuters. We will probably buy another

What an amazing car!

I got a CPO C-300 with the AMG package. The exterior is simply stunning. The car looks like the new E and S class, but it's way less expensive and looks as luxurious. I was amazed with the power of the engine. When I put it on the Sport + I feel it gives torque like an infinity Q50 that I drove once. The gas mileage is great. The ride is very comfortable and sporty at the same time. I'm in love with this car

Fun to drive

We purchased the C300 AMG and it is awesome so far. Following the purchase, we took a 9 hour road trip to West Texas and the car performed to perfection. I am a 6'4 guy and am usually sore after that trip, but felt no pain due to the amenities available in the car. My wife and I both loved it.

The best car ever

Just purchased a certified pre-owned C300. Absolutely love it. So solid and feels so safe. Spunky and sporty! Tremendously classy and certainly eye-catching. Totally awesome!
