Finally something to compete with beemers!

08SEA300

Was just about to post this myself! Great news for sure! Makes me seriously think about trading the 300 for an '11 350!
Good job MB!

Im curious to see the twin turbo setup in the C250.

SCguy08

Fantastic! The interior shots look awesome! The steering wheel on what I can only assume is the 350' looks very promising. And no more pop up navi!

finally our C's grew some ***** with more HP. interior looks almost like a BMW.

I want to know what a tune will.. The 350s are pushing more torque already than that 3 hundo with a tune.

Bimmer. :3 Before some BMW fanatic corrects you in a rage/frenzy.

But darn...I want the new 350 then... That extra HP and interior.. I suppose I could go for a tune instead though.

mr inkredibul

I wonder how the performance will be or if the DI is for mileage and the bump in HP is for marketing. It reminds me when the g35 sedan went from 280 to 306 hp and torque remained unchanged and so did performance.

With that being said, a tune with the DI would be kinda nice lol!

Is it just me or does anyone else feel that the new exterior makes the sedan look, meh... While the wagon looks fu*king awesome. I can't believe I am saying this, but I might actually look into the wagon after my lease is up...

The interior looks great, just like the new slk leaked shots.

Also, the revision makes the sport look less -- sporty, and the luxury looks awesome!







Does anyone know if they will be bringing the wagon stateside?

I actually like the pop up navi.... I call it my Bosley screen. Plus, women love it... turn on the car and wwrrrrr, "omg where did that come from!? Take me home James!" lol but i digress

rberg925

+1 on the wagon.... I bet some subs in there would sound amazing!

I lie the pop up nav I don't see why their scrapping it . I feel a little P.0. to be honest, wish my car came with mire hp stock . Although I do like the new entry level engine . I had mods planned to keep up with the 335 but now I think I'm gonna gave to keep up with the née 350's lol .

The sedan pictured is not the C300 Sport..that's the C250 Sport..it doesn't have the AMG styling (notice the bodywork is the same as the lux, only the grille is different).

This is the C300 avantgarde (which I assume will be the C300 Sport in NA, as it always has been). I think it actually looks more sporty than the outgoing model.



Overall I'm very excited about this reworked C-Class. I think they nailed it. The C250 is a pleasant surprise that'll appeal to the younger demographic (GTI/A4 type buyers) and the C350 is finally competitive, at least on paper. I like the exterior freshening and I think the new interior is without a doubt class-leading. It makes the A4s look like crap. I can't wait to see it in person.

If they were going to bring the wagon to the US, they would've done it when the W204 was introduced. Too bad, because premium wagon options are dwindling and being replaced my small SUVs.

My biggest gripe with the W204 was the cheap interior, and it seems like addressed that. Not sure if the headlights are an improvement, but they don't look bad either. Good job MB.

I don't understand why the C300 is going 4Matic only though..seems kind of weird. I guess they're expecting the 201hp 4-banger to be the volume model?

I've always been more than happy with the HP but omg to have 300 plus HPs hmmmmmm i'd have loads of fun with that

rberg925

Bimmer, Beemer. Potato, Tomato. They all look alike

Not a fan of the facelift. If I wanted a BMW 3 series I would buy a BMW 3 series. The front end and interior scream BMW

park423

This is the C-Class I was waiting for but couldn't wait, got the E550 instead. The new C350 is gonna be awesome, it was already my fav compact sport sedan, with the new interior, styling and 300+HP engine, no one else can come close.

rberg925

Hmmmmm......

NJBNZ

lol see what I mean?

Sportstick

And, next time...............???

I dont see any resemblance to the 3 series, and the interior looks nothing like a BMW.
I am more impressed with the interior. I like the new steering wheel similar to the CLS, I also like the stuff borrowed from the E but that maybe a biased opinion.
Very nice.

rberg925

No offense to bimmer owners, just personal preference but, I always thought those intakes on the front look like a pig snout or something, it always bothered me. And the headlights look cross-eyed. The C series is a work of art and the only issue I have is that the headlight dial switch isnt back-lit.(which hopefully is on the refresh)
