Considering 12-13 C300
Looking at 12-13 C300 curious to hear about what I should look at when I am seeing cars? Also, How does the c300 interior(space,mainly the driver area) compare to 4series?

Just got a 2013 cpo with 13k on it. Very happy so far. I can't compare, but I'm 5'11" and feel fine. I like the engine. I really wanted the 6 vs 4 in the next gen. Dash and electronics are a little dated, but that's to be expected in a 5 year old car. Not my daily, so I'm putting nearly no miles on it. I'm not sure if I'd by one for my daily driver due to $$$ to maintain.

2012 = NA or DI engine, anything newer is DI, which may matter to you.

The main difference between the 2012 and 2013 is the 2012 is a 3.0 liter V6 with 228 horsepower. In 2013 they had a 3.5 liter direct injection engine with 248 horsepower.

The 2013 can look dated compared to the newer C class, but there's still a few 2017 models on the dealers lot that have very similar 'dated' interiors. and FWIW, I'm in the club that prefers the 'older' to the 'new' and I've never felt that way about any car I've bought new.
