BEST CAR I HAVE EVER OWNED

by BUDDY from MOBILE AL. (9/29/08)
Pros:GREAT FUEL MILEAGE, BETTER THAN ANY CAR I HAVE OWNED.
Cons:RIDE IS GREAT, NO PROBLEMS AS OF TODAY.

Great car, Bad dealer

by Tyrone from hampton, va (9/19/08)
Pros:Love car. Drives great and looks great.
Cons:Dealer experience

Tysinger mercedes-benz (Hampton, Va) gives you a loaner car comparable (in contract) to the mercedes-benz you bought when you buy a new benz. Took car in for 1000 mile service and got a hyundai. We were told it was comparable to mercedes. Have contract and this problem is still unresolved. Only want what I paid for.

Best In Class!

by jcast from Ohio (9/08/08)
Pros:Rock solid feel indicative of a Mercedes, bigger/better/more balanced than previous models.
Cons:Standard audio system of 100 watts borders on the absurd; no coin/sun glass holder; manual lumbar.

Feels/looks like a smaller S-Series Sedan. Terrific overall performance & acceptable gas mileage. No better car/value in the mid $30,000 range.

Very good value

by Julius Harper from valencia california (8/21/08)
Pros:Fuel economy is better if you don't drive hard. 60 MPH can deliver 30 mpg
Cons:Could use more wood trim inside. Not a plush as my 528i

Overall a very good value. I moved to Benz after three BMW's, which had a lot of electrical problems. MBZ isn't the ultimate driving machine, but it was a great replacement and has the kind of looks and style that are to be expected from a Benz.

Fantastic Vehicle

by Steve from Houston, TX (8/04/08)
Pros:Aesthetics, technology, safety, multimedia
Cons:Acceleration, missing some features

I purchased a C300 Sport and absolutely love the car. The only things lacking are - acceleration not in line with competition, no memory seats (2009 model has it though), no start/stop button, no rear view camera. But it is a solid car and in my opinion, there is not a better looking car on the market.

Very Satisfied Owner

by Cue from Merrillville, IN. (8/01/08)
Pros:I recently took a trip where I averaged 30.0 mpg when I was expecting to get 26.0. Good Fuel Economy
Cons:The cruise control is too close to the turn signal.

Overall, I am extremely happy with my C300 Sport 4 Matic. If there is one thing that I would like included is that there should be a memory seat setting. The car performs well and you can move out when you need that extra punch power. I would also have an Auto-Start System.

C63 AMG

by Alpesh (7/05/08)
Pros:GPS comes standard, POWER of AMG, beats an M3
Cons:handling isn't as great as the M3

Fierce. With technical highlights adopted from the world of motor racing — like an automatic transmission with fingertip shift paddles — this is the sportiest C-Class ever. Performance enhancements are everywhere, including a 451-hp engine, sport suspension and brakes, and body-hugging sport seats.$54,675*AMG-built 6.3L 32-valve V-8 engine - 451 hp @ 6,800 rpm

Love that Big Silver MB Star on Front Grille

by Cindy from Birdsboro, PA (7/05/08)
Pros:Soft Leather Interior, AWD is Great in Winter, Radio Control Near Shifter is Neat
Cons:No Back-Up Sensors, No Seat & Mirror Memory, Multi-Media Pkg is overpriced at $2,900

Quieter than my Jaguar X-Type but not as good on cornering; 18.5 MPG in city, 26.2 MPG on highway, and avg. of 20.3 MPG; More leg room in back than same class BMW, Lexus, and Jaguar models; My Husband Complains that it's a Tight Fit in the Trunk with his Golf Clubs; I Took One Look at the Big Shining Silver MB Star on the Grill of my Jet Black C300 4MATIC and fell in Love with the Styling; Service at the Dealership was Impeccable - What I come to Expect.
