A wonderful all-around compact luxury sedan!

I stand 6'1". With the seat three quarters of the way back, there still were infinite seating positions available. This car had a excellent base sound system with rich sound. I drove it on the comfort setting. It rode smoothly over less-than-perfect road surfaces and handled sharp curves athletically. The interface takes some getting used to, however. All in all, these cars are second to none.

Happy C300 Owner

For around three hundred a month for a new luxury 4 door car that is both dependable and gets great gas mileage this car can't be beat. Please note that although white is the most popular exterior color (which is what ours is), seemingly black has the highest resale value.

Most fun care I have owned

Excellent car, fun to drive and comfortable enough for daily commute. Exterior and interior designing is best in class. It responds to you when pushed with firm grip on the road with all 4matic drive.

One of my favourite cars!

The drive is really smooth and comfortable, the only complaint would be that since the car is front wheel drive, back of the car tends to drift if you enter a turn a bit faster. The interior design is very elegant and beautiful. However, the fact the screen is not touchscreen is a bit uncomfortable. Overall, I am very happy with the car, my previous car was also the same model and I will definetly buy the newer model.

Dazzling from Outside - Disastrous from Inside

This car defines style and beauty. However from engine and other consumable parts point of view, it's a disaster. Henry Ford wrote that `Quality means doing it right when no one is looking.? Mercedes however has totally forgotten everything about quality in this model. Engine knocking is a common problem. Change your gas station as Mercedes service center would recommend, but it will not work. They would tell you to drive it in sports mode and nothing will happen. Same is the case with brake pads. They will start to die by 6000 km only (non premium brands like a corrolla and civic will run for 18000km). Changing them will easily cost $ 600. Standard reply from Mercedes Service Center would be "this can happen due to bad driving style". This is my first hand experience and I know few more people who have had similar issues. Worst and the most frustrating part is to see the attitude of Mercedes after sales. They have the most creative ways of defending a faulty vehicle and put all the blame on you - the driver. I would strongly recommend to buy either A4 or BMW 3. Great reviews plus their after sales is what a premium brands service should be.

Extremely comfortable much improved

W205 (2015-Current) Mercedes-Benz C-Class is much improved over previous years. Ride is very soft and handles well in corners. Interior is very quiet. No rattles or squeaks heard on extremely bumpy road. Excellent audio system. Very reliable. 25k miles on it no problems.
