  • Its The Bomb - 2004 Mercedes-Benz C-Class

    Have a 2004 C230 Kompressor Sport Sedan. Im the original owner and have 257,000 miles on the car. I bought the car for reasons of safety, endurance, looks, and a sporty feel. Its given me everything I wanted. As long as I follow maintenance schedules I expect to exceed 400,000 miles. Ive not had any major problems with the car. This is the best car Ive had in my life.

    My c240 is a 2002.Great car for the price.An affordable luxury car with a lot of amenities. The c240 runs and rides like cars of a bigger size. The mileage is excellent, as I have attained 23/24 mpg city and a surprising 32 mpg highway. The 240 takes turns and curves with ease and is very smooth. The engine is highly responsive when the demand is put upon it.After owning this car for 2.5 years, it is like getting into a new car every time. Would not hesitate purchasing this product again.

    When I get in my car, I smile uncontrollably. Performance is great, I can go as fast as I would ever want to, the finish and materials are top- notch, it feels like the S-Class, and I cant wait to try out the 4-matic in the Snow. On top of this, I get better mileage than I did with my VW Jetta. I have become a Benz lifer; I cant imagine driving anything else.

    I bought this car about two weeks ago, it had 36 grand on the odometer. So far this vehicle has far exceeded my expectations for a used entry level Benz. On my 250 mile trek back home from purchasing it, I got over 31 miles per gallon, and I loved every facet of the c230. My friend has a BMW 325i and he commented the ride better than his BMW, also the leg room in the front better than the BMW. He also said less road noise, and a few features the Benz had he wished the BMW had. The regular halogen headlight are phenominal, I mean super good, better than any other car Ive ever had. The seats were great, power is fine and I just love this car. If youve never had one, get one, worth it

    Good handling, adequate performance, fit and finish good. I have had the vehicle for four months and Im not convinced that reliability will be very good. Would not start on a couple ofoccasions. Dealer could not duplicate the problem. Not much room in rear seat for adults.

    The design, performance...everything about this car is awesome! It handles great and will not dissapoint you. I drove everything including the 3- series, IS300, A4 Quattro, G35 and this was by far the best.

  • All I Could Ever Want - 2004 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
    By -

    I spent five hours at the Audi dealership haggling and became so upset I called up Mercedes and they had me in the car of my dreams in an hour and a half. I didnt expect my first car to be manual living in LA but I love it. Its so quiet and corners better than an A4 (also has 20 more horsepower). Chose the car over IS300, 325i and A4 and have no regrets. It has a very sporty yet distinctive look. Love the four door sedan with the feel of a coupe.

  • Better than I ever hoped for - 2004 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
    By -

    I turned in a ML320 for this car and was worried about driving in New England in the winter, but I was pleasantly surprised. This vehicle got me through a terrible storm - plows had not gotten out yet and there was well over 6 inches of snow on the ground and more coming down - with the utmost stability. I dont understand the complaints about front seat comfort. I drive from the Hartford CT area to the Mid Hudson Valley weekly, and commute 25 miles to work each day, and find the car to be extremely comfortable.

  • Cool Car - 2004 Mercedes-Benz C-Class

    Fun car to drive - looks great. Did cost much more than the "everyone has one" Accord.
