2012 C300 4matic performance?
Hello everyone, this is my first time posting on here so it’s very nice to meet you all. I am pretty new to cars in general and just picked up a 3.0 L v6 2012 c300 4matic. Many people talk about how it’s pretty slow in general. It was stock at first I picked it off a buddy it has around 60,000 miles. Till now, I’ve done a resonator delete+muffler delete+ an xpipe with quad tips. I don’t believe that adds any power to the car, just sound. But I’ve been looking through these forums and have seen people talking about tunes. And was wondering if there are any performance mods anyone recommends or tunes that you guys recommend to up the hp a bit because right now, stock it runs 228 hp and 221 lb-ft. Anything would be appreciated thank you.

2014 C300 Sport 4 matic
I've had my 2014 C300 4Matic Sport in 2 feet of snow before, went through like a tank. Also had it in thick mud. Overall 4Matic is great all around, never have traction issues.

I searched around previously just for fun and I think people say your looking at maybe 20hp gains in the 3.0 M272. I think the 3.5 is the engine you want. I could be totally wrong.
