[QUOTE="SaphGreyC63;6265003"]Ride comfort, while it is bumpy, its a sports sedan. People who complain about this don't truly want a sports car /QUOTE]
You're probably right. I think what I actually wanted was an E63. A luxury sedan with ridiculous power. I thought I was getting the smaller version of that with the C. Turns out I was way off. Maybe someday I can afford dropping 100k on a E63. Or rather justify spending that much.

My winter camping sleeping bag and thermal mat sit in my rear seat to put pressure on that $%^&ing passenger seat back to keep it from squeaking/rattling.

My rear sunscreen rattles like a dime in an empty soda can when it is down, my front passenger side door (the aluminum trim piece) squeek to the bass of my music, the guage cluster creaks over large bumps in the road.
This car is awesome don't get me wrong but at the same time there are things about it that drive me insane.

That sucks! Not even turning up the volume would help in your case.

You came from an e350, so you should have expected the ride to be worse.
People saying gas... sigh. Just sell the car.
Yes, this is an AMG but it is an entry level amg that can be had for mid 30's now. I will admit, some of the squeaks in the front dash are a little uncalled for. But with the way these cars ride + our lovely roads and things are going to move about.
If I really had to pin something I didn't like it would be the cheap *** plastic door locks. I'd rather have some nicer looking pieces or a completely shaved look. Feel like those would be easy and cheap for MB to adjust. Also, the car has some weak offsets for wheels which really make it hard to run a very concave look such as the m3.

I am a little shocked that ride quality has come up in this thread. Those individuals must have came from some pretty cushy rides because my C rides excellent for a performance sedan. No squeaks in my 90k mile car either. ( I may be very lucky though)
My complaint is the slow 1-2 shift in manual mode and the lack of full Bluetooth capability

^ What bluetooth capabilities are you looking for? My facelift does it all (I think?)
I was surprised about people saying H&R's made the ride worse. Same as those looking for an S-class ride quality in this car.
No car is perfect, but this is the only car I've owned twice and prefer it over my others.

Slow reacting trans (pull 3 times, get one gear lol ) and lack of streaming bluetooth for music from phone etc is the most.
As to squeaks, 35,000 and *knocking on wood* issue free!
Beyond that, the perpetually empty gas tank, and bald rear tires, about only nitpickings!

Transmission and rattles. Primary rattle comes from the sunroof. The automatic transmission is great for an automatic, but not close to dual clutch. I think the ride is a bit soft.......

no offence but that is a cheesy work around that leaves off all the important functionality. Skip, thumbs up and down, display integration, etc.

As I've stated in various other threads, the tune2air device gives me full BT audio integration and display in the cluster (still can't sync phone contacts), although some have said it didn't work for them.
