  • Great car, once I stopped babying it - 2007 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
    By -

    Got a great deal on a CPO 07 C230 with only 10k miles. It seems theres a glut of off-lease cars on the market right now (not surprising considering the problems with brokerages & banks). Great interior and exterior, but I miss having a fold-down rear seat. I first thought it drove a bit larger than it really is. Then I drove it aggressively on a twisty road. Wow. Body roll is very well controlled, and grip is outstanding. Real-world acceleration is outstanding; the 7 speed runs to high rpms as required in sport mode. It has a long-travel throttle that makes it easy to drive sedately or aggressively, once you get used to it. Hwy mpg is much better than I expected based on EPA ratings.

    Really safe and solidly built. Leased 15000 mile contract. Mileage acceptable, sporty and classy compact. Easy to park. Great highway performance. Enjoy driving it.

    Bought this in 2007 with 8k miles. Love this car. handles well in sport mode, very peppy, great shifting with 7 speed. Superb mileage, over 30 highway. Comfortable and great in corners.

  • 1st time Benz owner-initial impressions - 2007 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
    By -

    Decided to make the move to a Mercedes for $20 more a month than what I was driving, preowned end lease C280 4matic with 30k miles. The car feels and looks as tight as when it left Germany so it seems. The ride is smooth, very responsive and quiet. Feels larger than it is. Interior design is "simply sophisticated", lots of functions with basic no nonsense finish, yet textured with the brilliance only found in a Mercedes. Shifting is smooth, good acceleration and with little engine noise. The car glides at 55 mph and above, so sweet. Interior cabin sound is nil. The sound system is second to none period(oem), as Harmon-Kardon is known for. Overall exceptional value preowned for a 3 year old.

  • True Luxury in an affordable package! - 2007 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
    By -

    We love the 3 setting memory seats and power head rests with height adjustment on both sides not just driver. The 7 speed auto transmission with 2 reverse gears is very smooth, giving 30-31mpg highway at 70-75mph on a cross country trip. The power rear sunshade and excellent climate control just seem to work better than in others cars. Surprisingly more leg room and baby seat room than we expected and more than in several much larger vehicles. Most of all, this is just a very quiet, very smooth, truly luxurious vehicle to drive for miles and miles.

  • Almost Perfect! - 2007 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
    By -

    The C280 has a distinctive and elegant appearance unlike any other car in its class. This car feels solid. Very pleasant to drive and extremely responsive. This car makes you want to drive. The C280 is the best car I have ever owned or driven. Period.

  • OK ride - 2007 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
    By -

    This vehicle is a somewhat marginal improvement over the 2004 model we had owned previously. The additional horsepower is welcomed and clearly evident over the 2004. The 7 speed transmission also boosted the long distance MPG to a surprising and respectable 31-32 average. If there is one complaint, it would be the excessive wind noise eminating from the driver side window. To date, all attempts to have the problem rectified have failed. I suppose we will have to just live with the problem until its time to trade again. However, this seemingly small defect will certainly impact our decision to buy a Benz in the future.

  • Mercedes C230 Great Car - 2007 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
    By -

    I tried the Infiniti G35, Lexus ES 330, BMW 330i and the Jaguar X series. The Mercedes has a comfortable ride as if you are on a cloud. The build quality? Of course, Mercedes quality all the way! The car is very exciting and very fast. I have put over 10,000 miles on the car . No transmission problems like Lexus and no warranty issues like Infiniti. The car has a Mercedes-Benz S series feel and look to it. My friend bought the Lexus brand and now has traded it in for a Honda. I am thankful to God I chose the Mercedes over all the other vehicles

  • Once you go MB, you never go back - 2007 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
    By -

    Car is sexy and sleek - its black on black and get compliments on it weekly (I guess it is true that once you go black, you never go back). Car has a great drive. I like having the option of take-off type; Comfort (smooth) or Sport (better acceleration). Car is so smooth on freeway that I got 2 tickets for going 80 mph within the first few months of owning it. Very quiet in cabin when driving. Radio could be upgraded a bit; the louder you go, the less crisp it is. I like the big trunk space. It allows me ample space to hold several outfit options. My biggest complaint is the backseat; 2 fit fine, but add a 3rd person in the fun and it is much more cramped.

  • lst Time Mercedes Owner - 2007 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
    By -

    Purchased my C280 AWD in Oct. 06. The ride is truly smooth. It takes road bumps with no problem. The sound system is great and the navigation system gets me where I want to go without getting lost. I had to take the car back to the service department since it was surging forward when my foot came off the brake. They discovered it was down a 1/2 quart of transmission fluid (and this is a brand new car). Needless to say, Im gonna keep my eyes open to this potential problem.
