2010 C 300
Free 2012 C300 coupe for the weekend

I was contacted by Mercedes and will be picking up a 2012 C300 coupe to have from Thursday morning until next Tuesday afternoon. Interested to see how 300HP motor will be. I pick it up thru Beverly Hill dealer. Great looking from what I can tell by MB website.

You are going to have to use your imagination since the C300 still has the 3.0 228HP engine.

I think the C Coupe is actually a C 350

And according to the MB USA web site is a 302 HP motor. See what happens on Thursday morning.

The 2012 C-300 is listed on the MB website and still has the 228hp 3.0 liter v-6.

I beg to differ. In the US, there is a C300 (but 4MATIC only). If you check MBUSA.com, all you will see is the face-lifted C300s at the moment (luxury and sport trim).

This is a dealer tactic to charm you into taking a bath on returning your lease early. Mmmmm lap it up like warm milk.
