  • Great car - 2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
    By -

    Purchased a C300 in palladium silver with black MB-Tex seats. This car gets noticed no matter where you go. Very smooth ride and you hardly know the vehicle has a transmission it is so silent. Seats are very comfortable and all guages are in the proper place. Gas mileage has been very good..averaging 25 plus on the highway and 19 in town. This is our first MB and it is definitely a winner. One to keep for a long time.

  • My first Mercedes is a Winner! - 2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
    By -

    I have to say that I didnt know what to expect, but I am so pleased that I chose a Mercedes this time around. I normally drive Nissan Maxima but have been very displeased with its stability and maneuverability (drove like truck!!). I heard how fun it was to drive a C-Class so I test drove the 2008 when they came out and was blown away. Great pickup and the steering is awesome. Im a bit of a "speedaholic" so this car works for me for its safety features as well.

  • Impressive automobile - 2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
    By -

    We had purchased a new 2007 Lexus 460 for around 70K in Nov. of 2007 and for various reasons were not utterly impressed. Terrible in the snow! Decided to buy a smaller, less costly, but still high end auto that would be great in the snow. Had my Land Rover LR3 in for service one day, saw the new 300 and test drove it. Wow! Loved it, bought it, drove it 2500 miles and enjoy this car more each time I drive it. Ditto for my wife. Have not missed the Lexus 460 one day. Never thought I would say that. The truth of the matter is we are considering trading the LR3 for a second C300AWD. Will wait for the new Audi A4 this fall before making the move. The Benz will be tough to beat!!

  • Great Car/Value/Buy! - 2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class

    Bigger, faster, smoother, and quieter than my 2004 Comprressor Sports Sedan. Appears to be improved in all areas. Classic Mercedes exterior styling, but the company should swallow half the cost & put real leather in all models to elevate itself above the BMW 3 Series entry sedan. Received a great deal with year end factory rebates & convenient home delivery!

  • The best C. - 2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
    By -

    This is for 2008 MB C300 Luxury. I traded in my wifes 2006 BMW 325 (I am glad I got rid of that disappointing car. So noisy my god the chevy 2500 diesel was quiter - no kidding). Love this C class though. Smooth, quite and fast enough for me (I am mid 40s). It does everything in Merced way. I owned the previous C (2003) and didnt like that one either. But his one is defeintly a winner. Thank you Mercedes to built this.

  • I Love This Car - 2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
    By -

    I was cross-shopping BMW 335i and Audi S4. When I drove the C350, I knew this was the car for me. Sure, its not as fast as either the 335 or S4 but overall it is perfect. Mine has the P2 package, Multimedia package, Panarama sunroof, 18" rims and iPod adapter. There are more audio storage options than I could probably ever fill. The stereo is great and the build quality is fantastic. I love driving this car and everything about it. I have no regrets and do not miss having a BMW. I will keep this car for a long time. Drive it, you wont be disappointed.

  • Turns a lot of heads! - 2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class

    I have a black on black C300 Sport. Everywhere I go people just rave about how it looks. It is very quick and the comfort is amazing.

  • So far, so good - 2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
    By -

    Very happy so far. I have the C300 Sport and I really like the exterior styling. The car is very comfortable and rides and handles very well. Pleasantly surprised to be getting about 25 MPG with the 7 speed automatic. Overall I feel it is a very good value for the money.

  • Best $ 40,000 Sport Sedan - 2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
    By -

    Traded in my 2006 Acura TL for the Sport 300 C -4MATIC about one month ago and Im now happier.The car is much more impressive and looks like it costs considerably more than the Acura.Handling in the snow and rain is superb in contrast to the Acuras scary handling in wet stuff.Three Series BMWs(RWD) are also scary unless you get AWD but the cost escalates and is considerably more than the C class. I dont like the looks of the Infinity G nor the Lexus thus the MB decision.The 228 HP. engine is fast enough and responsive, the trunk is fine especially with the fold down seats(fits 3 golf bags),the pop up Nav screen and the Harmon K. audio are neat conversation items.

  • Why buy anything else. - 2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
    By -

    I have owned 3 mercedes C series and this is by far the best to date. My wife and I were going to be practical so we looked at the Accord and Camry. By the time you put everything in them that comes standard in the C300, you are over $30k. It makes it no brainer then to buy the C class.
