The way a car should be designed.

I've tried other brands but this is my 12th Mercedes since 1985. I presently own two recent Mercedes models.

Style at an affordable Price

Car has style coupled with performance. Mobile apps only enhance the ownership experience. This is the third C300 4matic I have owned/leased. Currently lease a BMW also as a comparison. Each have their strong points. Final goal is to wean myself to one or the other. MBZ is making it tough!

Better than a BMW

We have owned both Mercedes from 1972 thru 1995 and then BMW cars from 1995 thru 2016. In the last few years the Mercedes is a better car in style and comfort as well a better car for the price. The interior design of the dashboard and controls in the Mercedes are really excellent and well thought out.

Fabulous handling sports car with luxury feel

2017 Cabriolet: This car drives like a dream, best I've owned (have owned Porsche, Jaguar, Lexus, other Mercedes, etc). Feels like a fast sports car (in "sport" mode) but has all the luxury features you find in a Mercedes. Do plan on spending extra to get the really neat options, best to get these as packages (P2 or P3). If I had a wish list, I'd love to see these available as hard top convertibles. I'd also make the ambient lighting like what's in the new E and S series, where it's a part of the dash and doors; in the C Cabriolet it's just over the interior door handles. Not much of a cool ambient lighting feel there. And although I'm getting used to the navigation screen looking like it's not a part of the car (it sits against the dash) I would integrate it into the dash. Other than this wish list, there's nothing I'd change, my new C Cabriolet is a sleek looking, fast, comfortable car that handles beautifully on winding country roads and highways alike.

Makes you smile from point A to point B

All wheel drive and easy on the eyes. This is my 3rd Mercedes and they just keep getting better. It?s reliable, comfortable and gets a lot of compliments. If you?ve never driven one go on a test drive.

Exquisite!

My Mercedes-Benz C300 is a combination of class and sportiness. It purrs like a kitten with all the bells and whistles you can imagine. It also has lots of horses under the hood to satisfy any power craving! I love it!
