So, what do you love about your w205

As opposed to the thread of everyone finding a couple of things they "hate" about their MB baby, how about sharing what you love about your w205?

2016 C300 4Matic traded in for a 2022 E450 Coupe
I love the overall ride quality - c300 4matic sport with 19" all season tires


Also:


- interior layout
- seat comfort (once I got it positioned correctly)
- outside appearance
- Color! (Cardinal Red Metallic)
- Voice Command - it actually works!

I love pretty much everything about me C300 Sport

In no particular order my thoughts are:
  • Love the look outside and in and in particular inside is made with quality bits and pieces
  • Love the efficiency of the 4 Cylinder Turbo, but punch it and it really goes
  • Love how it just fits me
  • Love the Burmester Sound System
  • Love Comand and Voice Command in particular
  • Love Blind Spot Assist - It has helped me avoid an accident more than once
  • Love the Cranberry Red Leather seats
  • Love Palladium Silver (it doesn't show dirt at all)
  • Love the Intelligent Lighting Package
  • Live in Florida, so Love the Cooled Seats

Just about everything.

Inside - sooo much nicer place to be than my W204 was.
Outside - like the fact that it "hints" at a sporty car without being a boy-racer plaything.
Comfort - Sports suspension is firm, but not harsh
Burmester - one of the best I've had the pleasure of
Tech - love the Distronic, HUD is excellent, Safety systems work well, but not obtrusive, love the facility to enter Speed Camera alerts
Seats - really comfortable and Heating has no "cold spots"
Pano roof - great, even at this time of year to get a little more light into the car.
Economy - do I love it? Well, it's decent - and this is a decent sized car.
Auto box - with the software update it is really good - smooth enough.
Keyless - who needs keys?

I didn't get my car yet and I'm already envying you for this "Love Palladium Silver (it doesn't show dirt at all)". Really worried my brilliant blue will make dust show, also the fact that I live in a very dusty/dessert country I should've considered the Palladium.

I love all of the above as noted, but in addition love the Intelligent Drive features. On long highway hauls I feel comfortable that my car is looking out for me.

I usually go for more vibrant or dark colors, but they really only look great for a few minutes, immediately after a wash. Not to make you feel bad, but I have to say this Palladium Silver is amazing at not showing dirt. Even after riding on a street with road spray!

I love how I find one, post here about how I'm getting one, then chicken out and start over again with a totally different one a week later. This week's "C Class I'm Totally Getting" is a lovely Palladium C450 on 19" Titanium MultiSpoke, Crystal Grey Leather, P1, MultiMedia, Lighting, Pano, Heads Up.

Next week? Who knows. But I do have a $2500 deposit down and I just pulled all my mods off my S so this one might be it.

No i love what m-benz has done with the 205 its a amazing vehicle looks and performance. the vehicle looks like its made to be driven and the new engines design is in its own right impressive. its just sad to see it drive away with a skew rear end.

its just something to look out for if you buy a new 205.

the feeling every time i get into it. just such a nice place to be, and it reaffirms that you're in a nicer car than pretty much everything around you. +1 snob points every time i get in

Have to agree. Fit and finish around rear bumper cover area is more chevy-ESM than mb.

The Infamous C450
The butter soft Designo upholstery for one and the exterior lines allow it to photograph so well.

Mercedes C W205, Previous: Mercedes ML W164
Love pretty much everything about my car. Especially the nice "blurp" sound when shifting hard in sport plus. And of course the comfort Mercedes offers. I have always liked Mercedes
Those who want to see my car, here is a clip:
