35+ U Can Buy — Its a comfortable car cant talk too much about its performance though its a car for people who enjoy easy driving not a car for an enthusiast, its not a driver driven car. No i am not too poetic but yeah some times here and there.

Once You Drive This Car, You Won't Want To Get Out — The acceleration and handling keeps a smile firmly planted on my face. The carbon fibre interior looks great and every control is right where you want it. The seats are bolstered to really hold you in place and yet they're extremely comfortable. The exhaust note is very addictive. It's a little thirsty with the gas but with this type of engine it's actually not that bad. The build quality on this car is excellent. I haven't been able to find anything I dislike about this car.

Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.)

Pros

Nice car to drive but it is a little under powered for me, but my wife loves it, and that is all that matters. Handling is not bad, it is pretty tight steering but not enough feedback. The sound system is phenominal.

Cons

Entering destinations into the Nav is bt far the worst I have ever used. I was test driving another Mercedes with the same version nav and told her to try to find the closest Cumberland Farms and she couldn't. If you use the spelling feature, it won't give you the closest one. I used it to find a post office and the first one it brought up was in PR. Yes Puerto Rico. And you cant even drive there

Great Design, Good Space For The Size, Horrible Navigation — This is my wifes car. That said, this review is from her pespective. She owned a 2008 M35 and a 2007 Lexus ES350 before we bought the C300 4matic. The other cars were OK in hr mind but not anything special. The only thing she liked better was, you guessed it, the nav system. She loves the ride, the visibility, the color and comfort.

Pros

Love my car, Luxury and Sporty at the same time!
Beautiful leather interior
Sunroof
Technology all over the place-

Cons

I havent found any yet--other than the cost of parts is steep, but it is what I expected- it's a Mercedes!

Thrilled — I never thought I would want to own a "luxury car" But this car is sporty and luxurious at the same time. It has plenty of techno bells and whistles to keep me satisfied (MP3 player for my Ipod, steering wheel controls for radio, bluetooth hookup for cell phone etc.) It is so comfortable and quiet. I just love the ride.

Awesome Car — Love the styling of the car, very sleek and sexy! It handles very well and has good power. The interior of the car is very well thought out and I just love to be in it. Driving around town becomes less of a chore in this car!
