2013 C350 4matic

I'm getting this on Wednesday to replace my 2012 V6 C250. I'm really looking forward to the extra 100hp.

Thanks!

The Canadian 4 matic C250 still has the extremely underpowered old tech V6. Only the RWD version has the 4cyl.

A C63 is around 80k$ in Canada. I'd rather have an AMG as well. But i also need the AWD.

Congrats!

It is still mind boggling to me that MB is playing these silly model naming games from one country to another. In the US, this car is now a C300 4matic, but it has the same 3.5L engine as the C350 4matic in Canada.

Pete, In Canada you can get the c300 4matic or the c350 4matic. The difference, aside from standard options is the detuned 3.5 litre in the c300.

The major difference is that with the c350 you get lots stuff standard such as moon roof, key less go etc

lmao i actually just saw a similar post about the engine on the 2013 C-class...here's my thoughts, pretty much just copy and paste from what i said in that thread haha

"My understanding was that 2013 C300 & C350 are using exactly the same engine, just different size of rotation wheels?(axis?sorry that exact terminology is escaping my head right now...)
From what i remember, C300 has the smaller wheels whereas C350 got the bigger ones, hence the power increase...i might have the orders backwards but u get the idea.
Please correct me if i'm wrong.

the reasoning i got from the MB techs, was so they dont have to design 2 types of engines (and assembly lines) for 2 models that are essentially the same...all they had to do was just swapping out the wheels for a particular model.

again, please feel free to correct me if i'm wrong "
