looking to purchase the new c class w204 have a few q's ?

Im thinking about making a purchase for the new c class w204 but doesnt have a clue which model to get. Is there any different between the c300,
c320 and c350? Is the c300 the lowest, base model, and c350 highest? Which one would u perferred if money isnt an issue for all 3 models? Thanks. Im just looking for some advice and opinion's.

i dont like the look of the c63, its to fancy for me. I like more of a clean look but i want the model with the most and best options besides the c63. So im assuming the c350 would be the answer to my question.

2008 C350-Sport-AMG-Active Agility Pack + B170 2008+Mitsibishi+Mazda
Thumbs up C350-AMG Pack

I chose the C350 with AMG Package and the Advanced Agility Package [Active Agility Pack]suspention. My speedo console is same as C63 looking.
The result is a super smooth drive in C-Comfort mode. With this setup you get a beautifull smooth looking car with slightly lowered suspension, and diferent lower body panels and 6 twinspoke AMG wheels. Everybody sees the car say it's different than the rest and very beautifull, had not one negative comment from people I met in person.

The car is fast enough. My feul consumption was the lightest at steady 120 Km/h at 8.2L per 100Km. It is understandible why it is lighter at 120 than say 80-100 because then it is running in 7th gear.The average consumption over 5 months/10 000KM was 10.6L/100Km.

Where I live I can chose various option seperately, each with a ref nr and a price. So I left out the Command option and don't miss it either.

So far no regrets.


The C63 is a bit of an overkill to me, and if it had not such a harsh suspension, I may have considered it. I rather bought two cars and enjoying both. I am not sure what the future of the C63 might be.

if you need 4-matic then C300 4matic...if not there's always a C350 rwd but honestly if you have the funds go for the C63, you can always tone it down afterwards

The only thing the c350 is optional with the amg package are the 18inch amg rims. The c350 does not come in 4matic, unless your in Canada. 4matic is AWD system as the c350 is RWD. Good luck with the purchase!
