C-Class vs C32?
guys i'm coming from a C-coupe 2.3,and now have a C32,but my gas mileage is 100 less on a tank full.
I'm getting 200 miles on a tank full is that normal for the C32,as opposed to 300 miles in my C-Coupe?

Doesn't sound normal to me.........mine gets more than 200 to a tank (roughly 260-280).

Absolutely...
Very possible. However, if you are MUCH more gentle with your right foot... then you will get to see the Gas Station every other day!

Based on many threads I read , 200 miles is the overall average for C32/C55.
very 'Normal'. And, if you drive a C32 the way like you do it to your C coupe, I am sure it costs. Just be aware tomake sure you are ease on gas when start/stop at traffic light. C55 is worse than C32 on slow speed start/stop drivings styles.
