I Tried Very Hard
For the past 6 months I have very seriously looked at replacing my '10 GLK with a new GLC but two things stopped me.
First was the salesman believe it or not. I stopped in one day and asked for him. He came over and told me he was busy with another customer. I proceeded to tell him what I was looking for with all the options I wanted (he wrote everything down). I told him to call me when he had a chance. He never did.
The second was I had a hard time getting around the look of the tablet stuck on the dash. It just does not look like it belongs or fits.
I have decided to move on. I ordered a new Jaguar F Pace "S".
Everyone on the forum has been great and provided a wealth of information that became invaluable through the years. Best of luck!

I guess the wiper was enough too much 
I saw 4 GLCs this week, I guess they are really out. I can't stand the look of it. The rear looks like any other korean/japanese small SUV. The front looks like GLA, which I'm not a fan off. I'm keeping GLK for now until it gives too much trouble.

I wouldn't have considered the F-Pace and the GLC to be true competitors. The Jag is more money and higher performance. Personally, if the GLC didn't suit, I would have gone with the Macan, for better performance and proven reliability. But that's a very personal, subjective choice.
I hope the Jag works out well for you. It would be great to hear more, after you've lived with it for a while.

My wife has 14 GLK250 and Diesel engine performs beatifully, but if MB will not introduce diesel 2017 GLC for US by this fall or at all, I will consider the upcoming F-Pace 20d; they are in the same class and in the same price range.
