My 4 month review and pics

Hello everyone I have been lurking around the forums for a few weeks now and finally made an account. I have had my c300 for about four months.

So far I can say I truly love this car and am very happy overall. I get to drive a 4 cylinder car that has some decent pick up (for an inline 4) and people constantly mistake my car for an S class which runs up to 100k higher in price.

Few errors I have ran into:
-LEDS went out on door handles
-distortion coming from burmester system when playing house music loud.
-window noise from drivers side window is not super loud but enough to notice its louder than previous cars I have owned.
-brakes extremely loud when pulling out in the morning in cold weather (I'm in Minnesota so it's everyday pretty much the last few months)

despite all this I can't complain. LEDS were fixed by dealer right away, and brakes they said MB is working on a fix for.

The handling of the car is amazing, the brakes are very nice, and the little feedback I get from exhaust on sport plus is a plus.

coming from a 335i bmw and a 535i bmw I am very pleased.

I got rid of all chrome on car and debadged as well. Here are some pics.

Quick question on LEDs, once replaced do they last? Has anyone had replacements burn out?

Two months since my drivers door LED was replaced and it's still working. The other 3 continue to work fine also.
