Do they or did they make a C350 4Matic on the W204 Body?
Do they or did they make a C350 4Matic on the W204 Body? For the North American market. So (2008 and newer) I see a 2008 C350 4Matic from Canada driving around Albany, NY sometimes. A young girl and she says she purchased it at a dealer in Canada. I have personally never seen a W204 C350 4M but many times in the W203 body. Does anyone own one(W204 C350 4M) or is it a import? My friend has been trying to tell me that they exist but I have searched Ebay, Cars.com, yahoo autos, autotrader and we have not come across any yet.
More information please.
More information please.

I personally think there would be a nice market for one. I have herd so many say the c300 is too damn slow. I mean its still faster then my 00 C230K and 05 C240 but I think for a 08 and newer they could of used a big more pep. I hear its like 0-60 in 7.0 seconds or something near that?

Saw a B class with quebec plates (iirc).
Would much rather drive one of those than a Smart.
But then again, even the smallest benzes tend to be mini tanks when you actually put them on a scale.

This is a great question. I have never understood why these extreme HP vehicles don't come in AWD by default. As you add power it gets harder and harder to put all of that power down on the road. AWD doubles your ability to put down that power without wheel spin. Wouldn't a 4Matic C63 win a drag race against a RWD C63 by a long shot just because you could mash the gas pedal without spinning the wheels?

2012 C250 Coupe
Well, then I have good news for you guys then. Come late March/April the C350 Coupe will be offered in 4Matic. I also think the C250 coupe will get this option, but not positive. However, for some odd reason this treatment won't carry over to the sedan counterparts (at least not the C350 anyway...).

No C350 4matic in USA for the pre facelift, but I did read somewhere that they may introduce a 2012 C350 4matic sometime early next year. I am justing passing on info though, it could be a rumor, that would really be awesome for the performance focused drivers up here in the northern us, I don't see why MBusa wouldn't do it.

Ya We have them In Canada. Rare to See a early w204 c350 with out 4matic. The c300 took over in Canada. Most People just buy the E350 4matic instead of the c350. But ya it's funny i didn't realize the USA didn't offer a 4matic c350.
