Excellent handling. Styling beautiful!!
My Mercedes is a 2008 C350 Sports.

Cons: How would you improve 2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class?
NO cup holders in the back seat if three passengers are in the back seat. Make it easier for people to get out of the back seat. Even tho mine is a four door C350 Sports it is difficult for people to get out of the back seat.
MY MERCEDES C-350 SPORT 2008 WITH ONLY 7,025 miles on it. Bought new.

2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Review:
Overall a very safe car.......speaking from an accident this past Tuesday evening. If I had been in my pickup truck I feel that I would have received more severe injuries. By the grace of God I only received injuries to my Lt. knee and rib fractures.

Standard Audio system at 100 watts borders on absurdity; no sun glass holder; non-smoker pkg needed for storage of coins, etc.

2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Review:
My 3rd C-Class & the best by far...feels close to the S-Class in overall performance. Great dealer service & end of the year discount with home delivery. Check this car out before buying any other brand in the mid $30,000 range!

Cons: How would you improve 2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class?
None really.
Gas mileage maybe, but for a heavy car this engine is a good balance. Smooth. Well designed. Quite.

Redo the tan interior option. Change the colors. Looks off color and cheap in sun light. Black over grey is best.

2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Review:
Fit and finish is that of a much higher end car in the Mercedes line. P2 package is worth every $ for all the amenities. Multimedia is a must. Very adequate power and great ride. Very good handling. Comfortable seats. Got full leather. But MB Tex is excellent too. Rear view mirrows are excellent and improved over past models. Great 7 speed. Love the touch shift feature. Use it to slow the car. Save fuel and brakes. Tip: use 18" wheels and HP tires for a ride you wouldn't believe. Handles and rides like a much bigger car. Many compliments. Follow the recommended tires presures exactly.
