2017 GLC300 4Matic
New to Mercedes and the MBW Forum

Hi all, and thanks for hosting this forum - I'm sure I will have a lot of questions evntually. I look forward to browsing the threads and getting a feel for the new car and all the info available here.

After owning 3 BMWs, my mechanic talked me out of buying another one. I wanted to go with a "crossover SUV" and was looking at the X6. He told me that Mercedes quality was far better these days, and that BMW had "lost their way". Interesting, indeed!

So I picked up a "new to me" 2017 GLC300 4Matic with 28K miles on it, and a brand new set of tires. So far I'm loving it! Incredibly solid, quiet, smooth, and surprisingly powerful ride considering the 2.0L turbo engine. I'm still learning all the controls...

That's all for now!

-Karl
