  • I Love It! - 2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
    By -

    Ok...after months of looking for the right car, I finally decided on the 350 and Im soooooooo happy I did. I love this car, the style, the looks I get when Im driving and the fact that it is a MB. I find myself being cautious of where I park.

  • Dream Car - 2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
    By -

    I just purchased the C300 4Matic. I am a car junkie. I work as a dealer representative for an wholesale auto auction in New York. My week is spent on new and used car lots, dream job for me. After looking at at all the new 08s my pick was the Benz. The price for style and comfort makes this a winner!

  • 08 Best New Luxury Car Award from AJAC - 2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
    By -

    ...and I agree! Got fully loaded Luxury one Oct. 24th, but waited to really know car before review. Amazed how much more impressed with it after the purchase than anticipated. Great ride & maneuverability, rapid passing & breaking, much quicker than the numbers would have you believe... guess because the 7 spd. tranny gets optimal use of power at any speed. One reviewer here wanted backup sensors to be available, they already are... we got the "QuickPark" option on ours. Love sending google & yahoo map entries to car from any computer via "Search & Send" feature with the TeleAid & MultiMedia options. Great interior & exterior lighting, actually enjoy night driving again. Highly recommend!

  • My first and last M-B - 2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
    By -

    I am very disappointed with my first M-B. The wind noise at highway speeds is terrible, have to turn radio up 3-4 notches just to hear, dealer says nothing they can do. The placement of the cruise control lever is a joke, dont know how many times I end up signaling a right turn and not turning on the control. My bluetooth phone worked fine in my last car, but will not connect in the M-B. The navigation system got me the first time I needed it with the "Prepare to turn right". At the next street I turned and as I did it then says "In 800 feet turn right onto bla bla street". Wouldnt it have been just as easy to say "In a quarter mile, right turn etc".

  • My first MB - 2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
    By -

    First off, Im an admitted car nut. Get all the mags, spend too much time on car lots late at night. When deciding on a new car, my priorities were safety, AWD, engineering, style, and value. This one has it all in spades.

  • Good automobile for the price - 2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
    By -

    Have had a chance to drive the car at high speeds and without a doubt it can definitely handle its own. The interior is a little bland but the technology package, with its gadets, helps give the vehicle some pizzazz. This model is a good introduction into MB.

  • Better than my 325xi - 2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
    By -

    I really like this car. It came with pkg.#2 and the communication pkg - plus iPod connection. Prior to this, I owned a 2003 BMW 325xi. The Benz offers a larger, smoother ride and looks sharp. Ive driven 1000 miles and like it more and more each day.
