Sold the W204 for the W205
Well moved out of the 2014 W204 to 2018 W205 the new one (to me) having 14000k .coming from a 6 to a 4 cyl turbo
Was a tough decision but after 2 weeks driving it I am really impressed on how the engineers have blended the induction
to the drive line of this car with the modes stepping down the 9 speeds and in turn engine Rpm to turbo performance.
the early torque performance is great. Made the right decision.
Regards

I also traded 09 C350 for a CPO C300. Still having difficulty accepting the noisy 4 banger. But, A much more comfortable and sweet driving car over the w204. Smooth and quiet at highway speeds. Also, adequate power for me. I could do without so much technology.

I had a C300 loaner with the 9 speed and it is much better than the C300 with the 7 speed, but both still lack the low end torque of the V6 Twin Turbo. But that's to be expected and in daily driving IDK if you would feel it with the new 9 speed which is truly an impressive tranny.
