I really like the new C also. You could cross shop the A4 which I also like very much. The five spoke wheels are awesome as well and should be added. http://www.thetorquereport.com/asset...x329-17585.jpg

 

Having sold and leased MB, BMW and Audi forever do her a favor. Put her in an A4.

 

Do you really need 4Matic ?

If I were you I would pick the C250

It has the same 0-60 time, more grunt.

C300 4matic Torque @ rpm 221@2700
C250 Torque @ rpm 229@2200

C250 has better fuel economy even the C350 is superior to the C300 interms of fuel economy.

C250 and C350 weight less than the C300.

C300 3737 lbs.
C250 3428 lbs.
C350 3616 lbs.

 

I bought a 2012 C250 in December to serve as my commuter car. Interior is great with all the necessary features. Torque and acceleration is quite impressive and much more than I expected. On a recent roadtrip, I averaged 35mpg going 70.

 

Why do you say this???



Thanks for the numbers Mo. I dont REALLY need it but with my Cayman R as the only other mode of transport living where I live it will be nice to have 4Matic for those days when the weather acts up a little. If i end up getting another Range Rover then this all means nothing but until then i would prefer a 4WD vehicle in my household....



Great - thanks for the info. 2012 C300 4Matic is in the lead so far!!!!

 

a freakin C300,..cmon

I smell a great lease deal behind that decision

nothing else would make real sense to me

either A4/3er or a C250/C350

 

C300 is great in the snow. Great car.
