Replying to: snags (Sep 02, 2007 6:47 am) Nevertheless, I have pro's and cons associated with both: Age 28 CTS: Pros- Bold design, direct injected 300hp, stitched dash, XM radio, heated and cooled seats, warranty Cons- Road feel, ride height (too low), brand image (Cadillac's are for "more mature people" C350 Sport: Pros- Bold design, technical appointments, paint, drag resistant tail lights, solid feel Cons- MB recent reliability, MB interest rate, higher price when optioned I could be happy with either, but with both being new releases, my decision will be rendered through a combination of "seat of the pants feel" combined with price point.

Replying to: casper1022 (Sep 03, 2007 7:27 am) $31,975 starting MSRP for C300 sport $33,775 starting MSRP for C300 4Matic Sport (no C350 though) 1800 diff to add 4 Matic and it looks like that comes with the 7 speed auto transmission since there is no option for it when building a 4matic c300. Unless its a bug? Otherwise the auto transmission is a $1440 option on its own alrady. Only $360 more for the 4matic!

Replying to: falvor88 (Sep 05, 2007 11:50 am) now the c300 4matic is at $35,215 MSRP. I guess it was too good to be true! |

Hi. I've never owned MB or any German car for that matter and always driven Japanese. New C-class caught my eye by offering manual transmission and decent engine for decent price. I've looked at Volvo S40 (did not like the interior), BMW328 (like everything but with all options it is more expensive than C-class) and Audi A4 (dismissed based on reliability record). I asked trusted mechanic about MB and he said that post 2000 models are quite reliable. What is owners experience? Is 2008 model expected to be reliable? Did Chrysler involvement do anything bad to the MB? Thanks Leon |

What are the differences between C300 sport/automatic vs. luxury? Any infos are very appreciated. Thanks

I wonder how the new C's are selling? I have yet to see one (Sport or Luxury) on the road. When we visited M-B showroom some time ago, most of the cars there were not available for a test drive. We were told that these cars were ordered long time ago and were waiting for new owners. Those who bought the new C, aren't sharing much, unless I am in the wrong posting category. Also, I am counting that reliability of the C has improved.
