One of the "problems" known for W204 is the rapid rear tire consumption, which people have had some work arounds with an LSD and going a bit wider width.

I have not seen any specs yet for the W205 for standard tire width aside from the tire sizes.

Does anyone know if this is addressed?

Another "problem" is that the W205 appears to have gotten a little "flat chested" compared to the W204 as far as fenders are concerned. Not comparing against a BS, but even a standard W204 appears (from photos) to have more curves than the W205. Illusion?

The last three are very subjective, so take it for what it's worth.

It would be a "problem" (for me) if the mica blue? would not be offered for the US in 2016. I know, third world problems.

It would be a "problem" (for me) if MBZ didn't get rid of that damn ipad in the middle.

It would be a "problem" (for me) if MBZ didn't change the shifter on the steering column in 2016.

It would be a "problem" (for me) if you ordered "me" to "Discuss."

You don't buy a car like this and think your tires are going to last. You have to go a step down. Think 335i/c450. I hope to get 10,000 miles on mine. I don't know if thats going to happen though because I'm tuning the car

The W205 is longer and wider. The S also has ELSD. You can always go wider. Those should help add a couple hundred miles

They are going to get rid of the iPad screen (its in all the new models) and they aren't going to move the shifter. Looks like youre problems will stay problems

At the end of the day I think the biggest problem is that you won't be getting this car because its going to be insane

I'm shooting for 7, maybe 8K -- tops. If I get 10K, I'm asking for a refund cuz I was cheated out of some power.

You don't like the shifter on steering
You don't like the tire consumption of the C63
You don't like the interior Ipad looking screen (I do)


I think you're looking at the wrong car.

The elec.diff standard on the C63s will help your tires last longer but is there any car with 500+hp that does not have this "problem". Not a problem for me because it will be money well spend .
Mica blue (please provide pic) is not a color I'm familiar with, however Brilliant blue would be my first choice if offered for the MY2016

The front fender flares on the new car (W205) look fine to me. So do the twin power domes on the hood.





My W204 has nice front flares and power domes as well. They may look more pronounced on the W204 because the platform has a more angular shape. The W205 has more flame surfacing.

The 205 looks wider at the rear then the 204 sedan.
