If they are using the same engine and trans, I would think the C would pull away from the E simply due to weight. I believe the C is supposed to be 6.1 sec to 60 vs. 6.5 for the E.

Both being a MB i'm sure you can't go wrong with either but i think the C is much sportier and has that "younger image" along with it 
i've also driven an E and it feels much slower to me. IMHO

i have an E350 4matic and i took it to the dealer for service (under warranty) and I received a C300 4matic and the C just feels so much faster and more nimble. It accelerates so much quicker and handles much better than my E. Even tho my E has more power, the extra weight lags it down. However, the interior of the C seems inferior to the E. The dash and surrounding parts just feel and seem so cheap and plasticy (sp) on the C.

C350
O sorry I didnt know that you were looking at Race Results. The C350 is much more sporty and feels it too. The E350, like TheGreatOne45 says, has a more classy interior. The C class is a sporty-er car in general. IMO its not "cheap," just not as "luxurious."

C300 Sport/Palladium Silver on Black/P2
Also keep in mind that the C was just made in the past couple years, whereas the current E is at the end of the generation, so the newer tech/ideas is in the C.
However, for someone who wants an E, they are a good deal right now.

the new E-class with the AMG styling package looks awesome. The rear is a bit lacking tho imho, not very imaginative. http://www.netcarshow.com/mercedes-b...ports_package/
