TS,

Anyone have any experience with the little C Class sedans? I am looking at one for my girlfriend and we really like the new model year (2012) version of the C300 with the 4Matic. She likes white () over black with a sport package. No arguements there. I think xenons are a key option along with pano roof. Anything else i should be in for?

Thanks a lot!!!

Ill take 90 views and no replies as nobody has anything BAD to say so i will proceed

 

My buddy has one, and loves it.

 

Jon, I had a rental 2012 C250 a few weeks ago and that car was surprisingly fun for what it is. You can hear the waste gate open and the turbo spool its very cool. Also they made the interior so much better in the newer gen C-classes. I enjoyed that car.

 

C Class are great cars.

 

i currently drive the 250, white with black roof and really, it doesnt really excite me all that much, only thing i can say, is that i would be bored without the nav/entertainment/sat radio inside.
I drive it for what it is, i would have a lot more to say had it been a C63.

 

Soild car ive driven it on many occasions, and with the FL its even better.
So thumbs up from my side.

 

I have a c350 coupe. It's really comfortable and interior is awesome. I'd recommend it!

 

I only have rental experience

and honestly,

I`d rather go for a 3 Series or an Audi...

Really,the C-Class tries to be "younger" and more dynamic but the suspensions feels rather wooden and the steering feedback is less than exciting.
The transmission is rather slow imo and the gear changes are not as sleek as in a Bimmer
The Interior looks good,but I guess this is a thing of personal preferences anyway
Well,..and concerning the NAV,I think it works well and does its job properly
The Audi is sort of a mix of BMW and MB...so just check out some reviews and decide for yourself then

 

having sold MB and leased 8 MB's myself I can tell you that the 2012 C is a flipp'n great car. Interior is gorgeous with equally impressive navigation and bluetooth music...HUGE improvement over the 2008-2011 C300... ride is very comfortable for anyone under 6'1" imho and it's got sharp looks. My only complaint is the lack of real power, but if you keep the Revv's up it's fun. Even exhaust sounds fun.

The interior alone makes a 3 series look like crap.
