09' C300
I just picked up my 09' c300 a couple weeks ago. I'm 34 but look and act like in 25. Actually was looking into a g37 sedan but my aunt was selling the car for a deal I couldn't pass up. So now it's my daily.

Yikes!!!
I'm 67. But I sold my BMW R1200RT when I bought the 300. I bought the luxury model for the simple reason that I wanted the 3 pointed star emblem to stand up above the grill. Truly -- that was the main deciding factor.
After having the 300 for awhile, I also sold my Miata.
My daughter says I'm now driving a "Geezermobile".
I think I'm going to trade our Mini for a second 300.
My wife says I can't have a 6.3,

I'm 73. Hardly ever drive the BMW since I got the C300. It is the most rewarding drive ever among 3 BMW and 3 Benz owned. Would trade for a
C63 if I could afford.

I am 28 and I got my 2010 C300 in January of this year. I feel...28. I still cannot believe that I own it after almost a year. Absolutely love the car.
I am just a little sad now because I switched to my winter wheels and I already miss my summer wheels.
Also, who cares about age and what society says we should drive. Drive what your heart desires.

32 here, bought the car new from the dealer almost 5 years ago. It's been an awesome car, cheap to maintain and super reliable. Got an S Class too, which is my favorite. It's really hard to compare the two. The C class is tiny and sporty and the S is huge and loaded with features

2011 c300 4matic
My parents bought me the car when i was 16. I am now 19, turning 20. Given the events I have been through in life i feel 27. But i love this car more and more every day. I don't want to get rid of it. I do wish the seats were a tad more comfortable but I am more than grateful for this car.

Last February I ditched my M5 for my 09 C350 and never looked back. This is my first MB and I'm extremely happy with my purchase.

Probably because I'm a late bloomer and just now pursing my bachelors degree. I am surrounded by 18-21 yr olds all day. I also have an 8 yr old and 3 yr old daughter.

2002 C230 Coupe & 2010 C300 Sport
I bought my 02 C230k when I was 25 and I bought my C300 last year when I was 33. Now I'm looking for a 190e 16V. I though I was a BMW guy...

2009 Mercedes C350
29, feel like I'm 22, apparently look like I'm 25 (or so I've been told).
Just bought my C350 a couple weeks ago. I sold my 2005 BMW M3 a couple months ago (much more fun to drive and own, but I wanted something more reliable, family friendly and luxurious). Other cars I've owned are 2011 Nissan Titan, 1991 MR2 Turbo (project car), 2004 Jetta GLi, 2003 Chevy Impala (only had that one a year, ask me why) and a 1993 MX6 (first car, modded the hell out of it) and lastly, though I shouldn't count it because it's my wifes car/choice, a 2011 Dodge Charger. Also owned a couple bikes: 2003 GSXR750, 2004 GSXR600 and currently a 2006 GSXR750.
As you can see I've owned a wide array of cars, and the Mercedes is a close second to my favorite (with my #1 being the M3). In some ways, I like it more than the M3, but overall, the M3 has a slight lead on it due to it's reputation/power/overall fun-ness to own and drive. I think the C series is a good combination of elegance, luxury and sporty-ness and fits any age individual, which is why I chose it.

Correct and honest answer: "The c63 will make her smile. Every single time she's in it."
