Smile Which model are you getting next?

I had a 2010 e class and now I have a 2015 c class. My lease is up in 2018 and I am just thinking what car I should get next.


The C Class looks the same, so I am not sure if I should get the same car same model.


I think the GLA and GLC looks good.


The CLA looks good as well.


What are you guys and ladies selecting when your lease is up?


What is your comments on each car listed.

You're definitely not going to like the interior design or the build quality of any of the MFA-platform vehicles (A, CLA, GLA and B).

The GLC is basically just the SUV version of the C-class.

I used to drive a C300 in Malaysia and when I moved to Australia, I upgraded to a GLC43 and an E400 together.

The GLC43 felt practically the same as my C300, except that it was a helluva lot roomier and much more powerful, while the E400 felt much more solidly built, but didn't feel that much bigger from the C300 (except in rear seat space, where it was a very good improvement).

I think the GLC look really nice, too. I also, think the GLC is one of the vehicles I can chose from if I turn in my C-Class early.

if ur thinking for an upgrade you must think of a level up not down

CLA is the different group

if you have the C you must think of C coupe or E class or E coupe next S go up on the ladder of mercedes benz

if you want a BMW think from the 4th series going up thats an upgrade accordning to me with all respect to u and all the others


good luck

2017 C300 Coupe, 2013 Cadillac ATS 2.0T
Came from a couple of BMWs and and presently have an ATS as my BMW stand in. Really like my present C300 coupe, but when the lease is up in two years, I'm thinking going back to the BMW --maybe a 4 series coupe if the style improves, or maybe the Alpha Romero.

I actually love the coupe but I have a 14 and an 8 year old and I wasn't sure if the coupe c class and coupe e class would be logical. The coupe is so nice, omg!

Are they changing the E class shape in 2018?

The E-class isn't going to be updated anytime soon yet.

You're better off buying an E-class sedan (W213) if you're upgrading. A CLA (or any MFA-platform Mercedes) would be considered as a downgrade, and the GLC is practically identical to a C-class in terms of build quality and interior design.

I had the 2010 eclass first. Guess I'll start looking at the e class and see if I like the new one. I don't have to many options.

This about sums up exactly what I feel about both the X205 and the W213

They're both on my list if I stay with MB after I'm 'done' with my C400

If build quality and interior design isn't your concern, go for the GLC. (it's actually X253).

Otherwise, stick with the E-class (which is built much better. Not sure about US models though, my GLC43 and E400 were both built in Germany).

However, if you do need practicality, the E-class loses out to the GLC.
