Mercedes-Benz C-Class 2009 2010 is a 4-door, 5-passenger luxury sports sedan, available in 6 trims, ranging from the C300 Sport Sedan to the C63 AMG Sport Sedan. My first Benz! I commute almost 80 miles daily so I wanted a car I would enjoy driving. It's got great handling and a lot of power - so much so that I've become a much more aggressive driver (probably not a good thing since I'm female AND asian) The car has a lot of features such as seat warmers, bluetooth, Ipod, navigation etc which keeps me comfortable and entertained. I feel safe in this car - that I'm not just driving a piece of plastic at 90 miles on the freeway and there is more separating me from death than a sheet of aluminum! I can feel both young AND responsible in this car!...Upon introduction, the C300 Sport Sedan is equipped with a standard 3.0-liter, V6, 228-horsepower engine that achieves 18-mpg in the city and 26-mpg on the highway. A 6-speed manual transmission with overdrive is standard. The C63 AMG Sport Sedan is equipped with a standard 6.2-liter, V8, 451-horsepower engine that achieves 12-mpg in the city and 19-mpg on the highway. A 7-speed automatic transmission with overdrive is standard.
Wind noise at 130 mph on desert in Nevada - just to test and break my own speed record for a 3 second thrill! Feels solid, holds on tightly to the road. At 70, it feels like you are moving around 50! Its very quite. No heat-up, no issues during my journey. This is a C 240 with 6 cylinders. Its not very quick initially but picks up speed pretty fast. 80mph feels like 50. Very low wind-noise. Is solid as you can feel its strength when you open its doors. It looks small but its heavy.Since this is a rear-wheel drive, it handles safe on snow but is awkward in snow like other cars. I wish I had the 4 matic. Heard that its great on snow. You need to put in premium fuel and that is a drawback with the fuel prices being high. Maintenance is high but the quality that you enjoy is worth paying for
