#8 of 267 Re: Cannot Find Pricing Info for 2008 C300 Luxury Sedan 4Matic [casper1022] by falvor88 Sep 05, 2007 (11:50 am)
Replying to: casper1022 (Sep 03, 2007 7:27 am) Looks like now you can built the 08 C300 luxury/sport with 4Matic on mbusa.com now.   $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! Replies to this message: falvor88 (Sep 06, 2007 7:43 pm)

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

Replying to: casper1022 (Sep 02, 2007 8:43 am) What would be a fair price? How about list price? The model is brand new. It's been on the lots in the US for about 10 days - and already you're looking for a super deal? I have nothing against a good deal, but there are limits - and this is one of them. If you like the new C-class, you should be ready to pay full tab. Replies to this message: dasche (Oct 04, 2007 4:36 am)
#13 of 267 Exected reliability by lgoldin Sep 14, 2007 (7:23 am)
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 Replies to this message: be325 (Sep 18, 2007 5:06 am)

Replying to: sthavorn (Sep 17, 2007 8:51 am) I believe the tires are wider in the rear, the car sits about 0.5" lower, stiffer suspension, different front grille, brushed metal (interior) rather than wood panels,???.
#16 of 267 M-B C-300 by be325 Sep 19, 2007 (5:55 am)
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. Replies to this message: casper1022 (Sep 19, 2007 6:26 am) be325 (Sep 19, 2007 8:02 am)

Replying to: be325 (Sep 19, 2007 5:55 am) It seems all the dealers have been telling me, the sales are going great, more of the C300's are selling as compared to the C350. This does not surprise me, the price of the C300 sport is much lower, however, not too much is loaded to the car, the pricing for the C300 does not include automatic transmission in the price its an option to add, another $1440this goes for the C300 luxury too, being in the luxury class you still need to add the $1440 for automatic transmission, something close to that figure. Some dealers have sold their only showroom cars so really there would not be any for one to see or test drive. I ordered my vehicle back in August and was suppose to be ready by end of October, the other day I was phoned, the vehicle will not be ready till Feb 2008. Does this tell you the car is pretty much in demand at this time being new in the market? I have been researching and found that they have studied this car for 7 years and I suggest before you make a decision, you would really have to check options and accessories (stock) which comes with the C300 or C350. After looking at all the options and all and having to add the features like automatic transmission even on the C300 luxury the price did not differ much for a C350 which made me change my mind, though I really did not need the extra horsepower on the C350 and even did not like the choices on leather and the black maple wood trimming in the interior. I was also surprised that for a high end brand car, the manufactures are not willing to take any special orders as far as changing color of leather seats or wood trimmings for the C350. Hope this helps you and yes they are selling which is why most dealers are selling at MSRP without any discounts. What state are you from? Every dealer can locate the car for you they have access to the nationwide inventory of MB so am sure they can work something out if you wanted the car and are willing to pay the bucks. Good luck!
