New 2020 reviews: kzbin.info/aero/PLAgd55y0S6JulRs5Yp7VfnseP6oH9iGpI

[@ThinkingHuman]

Watched this video 8 yrs ago because it was my dream car & 2023 it's still pretty. My dream came true & it's still my daily driver.

[@JulianHarriet-jv3vg]

Congrats. I'm also having it as a dream. I'm 20

[@NovieBigSad]

This car still looks gorgeous, 6 years later

[@AlexLikesCARS]

Me watching it 8 years later🤣

[@azam829]

We bought a 2014 model.. such a nice car

[@technicbee]

I bought mine 25 days ago not comfortable on British roads you can feel every pot hole

[@TheGetawayer]

Some BMW fans seem to be upset by my verdict about the new C-Class, but think of this : It's the 3 Series that has undergone a complete change in character over the years, from a lightweight small sporty sedan to a much more comfort focused car that is almost as big as the E60 5 Series...Many people agreed with me on this when I reviewed the F30 in 2012 and while there's no doubt that its still a touch sportier than the C-Class, I find the new W205 more enjoyable and pleasent to drive on a day to day basis...And...Isn't that what these sedans are all about ???

[@timar4o]

When F30 comes out in 2012 it was the best premium sedan in the world,now in 2014 the C class replace it,The new C class is now more near to the S class than ever before.the only "ugly" thing is the tablet in the dashboard which cost 3000+ euros

[@BigAngeloSantorini]

Steven Ferguson I own two BMW 5 series cars. I was going to change the older one to a new 3 series, but when i saw the interior of the new C-class, i was blown away. I tested the AMG package version and it was a dream to drive and very very quiet even on the motorway. The interior of the 3 series looks cheap when comparing to the new c-class which was the main reason why i chose the Merc. BMW is still number one for me, but when comparing these two cars, the Mercedes just clearly wins. So now i'm just waiting for my new black C-class sedan with AMG packages to arrive.

[@richieasian]

I only picked the f30 3 series over the C class (the 2013 model was the only one available when I got my car) because Mercedes does not offer manual transmissions in America. Plus, the older generation C class was terrible! I do think that this one is actually better than the 3 series but it's just not something I'd want to have for myself.

[@ijustinw]

Is 7-9L per 100km on highway? And how is the fuel economy for city driving?

[@TheGetawayer]

ijustinw Mixed driving with high speed on the german autobahn, spirited driving on b-roads and city driving...You should get low 8s or 7s when driving on the highway at a steady speed

[@Andrew14312018]

This is one of the best reviews of the W205 on the web and helped us in deciding to get it. C300 4Matic with AMG exterior and interior packages. Love this car!

[@petemorbius3936]

2020 and the w205 still looks gorgeous

[@NickMurray]

Wow what a great machine. Beautiful video my friend. Very professional indeed.

[@TheGetawayer]

Nick Murray : Thanks Nick ! Now I need to see you testdriving a C-Class, haha

[@MaZEEZaM]

TheGetawayer Wish I could afford one, Great review, not so sure about the strange blue colour though :) Was it not a bit cramped in the drivers seat for you? you look to be a pretty big guy but to me it looked quite cramped in the video due to the shape of the console, looked like you had very little leg room? Also, I thought you drove right hand side vehicles in Germany like in Australia? this car was left hand drive.

[@MattMaranMotoring]

Wow, a really really excellent review Guido! I had no idea the new C Class could be optioned so nicely inside! And I'm glad Mercedes has a good transmission in this car too. This review was so informational and entertaining to watch. Your reviews keep getting better and better Guido! Now I'm going to head over the the Mercedes website and build a new C-Class while I dream about being able to afford it, haha.

[@TheGetawayer]

subaruwrxfan : Haha, thanks Matt ! Why don't you go and check it out inperson ? I know we both normally prefer sportier cars, but I think this really would be a perfect daily driver :) Thanks for the great feedback as always and keep up the great work too !

[@starseedmiracle]

Absolutely best in its class. No competitor at all.

[@adamc8887]

Thank you for this video. I own a 2015 W205 C250 Bluetec and your fantastic review has reminded me why I love my car so much, thank you. )

[@TheGetawayer]

Thank you. Truely great car the W205!

[@kaiser83n]

This is the best review of new C Class I have seen so far!

[@TheGetawayer]

kaiser83n : Thanks !

[@brswestcoast]

Benz c class 2015 is a real classic sedan. It's simply superb.........

[@DrunkOnRedWine]

Great review, very detailed and engaging. I ended up buying this car, it really is a classy car

[@UmarKhan-ln6hk]

Great review, the best one I have seen. You actually go through the specs properly unlike other people!

[@TheGetawayer]

Umar Khan Thanks, glad you enjoyed it !

[@dezza7866]

Great video. helped me to decide this was the car for me

[@tvanb]

One of the best reviewers !! Thanks and keep it up !

[@TheGetawayer]

Thanks for the compliment, Torrey !

[@tommieleonard3692]

Great review. A unique balance of specs and honest opinion. Much appreciated sir.

[@TheGetawayer]

Tommie Leonard Thanks ! I'm glad you like it and I hope it helps people who are interested in the new C-Class

[@Velozrocks]

Thanks man! I got the exact same car because of your review! (but no air suspension)

[@User.Joshua]

Best review of the new C-Class, by far! Good job!

[@TheGetawayer]

99Mercedesw202 : Thanks !

[@jinsk5704]

Thank you very much for your advice and i will keep coming back for your next review ;)

[@TheGetawayer]

Jin sk You are welcome !

[@roberant7]

TheGetawayer, first off, danke!!! Your reviews are some the best out there, the only person I can think of on KZbin who shares aspects of the cars that others usually don't. Please keep making these awesome review videos! If you would not mind, would appreciate your advice. I currently own a 2010 C63, about to purchase my next car, and thinking of either a 2015 carrera 4s, lightly used 2014 turbo s, v10 r8, Nissan gtr. If the 991 gt3 were available, I think that would be the winner. Any and all feedback welcome, and thanks in advance!

[@aymanfahad5205]

Really nice review well done.

[@ccshell]

Got one coming end of October. Cant wait. Quality looks fabulous!!

[@TheGetawayer]

Carl Sheldon : Cool ! Send me a picture to my fb-page when it arrives ;)

[@Ne0c225]

This car is really beautiful, saw this on a car show and i was really surprised on how it looked personally.

[@harolddemaine]

another great review, thx Guido :)

[@TheGetawayer]

You're welcome :)

[@aoalr]

The best W205 review. Thanks!!

[@TheGetawayer]

aoalr : Thanks !

[@aoalr]

TheGetawayer No problem!

[@DrKrishna2105]

Great review and great Car. Thank you!

[@TheGetawayer]

Krishna Chaitanya : Thanks !

[@jeremyhoffmann2909]

Thanks for a great and likable review! After seeing it about 12 times it convinced me of two things - To buy the car and to chose Diamond silver. C250 AMG Delivery in 3 weeks :) can´t wait!

[@TheGetawayer]

+Jeremy Hoffmann Thanks Jeremy ! This was one of my favourite Mercedes testcars and it still is. Great choice, I wish you many great miles in your car !

[@jeremyhoffmann2909]

Hi - well after 60.000km of driving this beauty, mostly in Sweden, Iám as you would have said "blown away" period! It´s such a perfect car for daily life and has plenty of character if your in the mood for more sporty driving. During these years I found myself wondering if there is anything missing, what other car on the market would I like instead when it´s time to shift this......well to be honest Iám still looking to find something that can match this for me and until I do Iám enjoying every minute I drive this for me "perfect car". Thanks again for great and interesting reviews on cars, far from the stereotype american reviews that are out there.@@TheGetawayer

[@aquateen77723]

I love your professional and quality-driven videos, Guido. I am very impressed with the new C-class from MB. The interior seems very well put together and materials are 1st rate. I am still partial to BMW 3 series exterior design, but MB did a fine job.

[@TheGetawayer]

aquateen77723 : Thank you ! I can see what you mean...For me the AMG package makes all the difference. Very hard to get the right camera angles to make it look as beautiful as it is in person ;)

[@Evohunter7]

Definitely my next car! C250 Petrol, Red Leather, Air-Suspension, AMG-Line trim and in Silver. I've always been an Audi man, but Mercedes have hit the ball out of the park with this design, I now covet the new C-Class. Thanks for a great review.

[@TheGetawayer]

+Evohunter7 You can't go wrong with that, the C-Class is a very awesome car :)

[@jordanl5064]

Same here. Planning on getting the C300. Very luxurious interior and exterior at the same time has a sporty feel to it.

[@ipineiro554]

Nice review! The new C-Class is a stunning car!

[@TheGetawayer]

Ivan Pineiro : It sure is, thanks for watching !

[@marcomambretti112]

I find the review very precise, congrats! the new c-class is a superbe car and you managed to show that! I definitely subscribe to your channel!

[@TheGetawayer]

Marco Mambretti : Thanks ! I'm glad you like it !

[@jtstar10]

Thanks for a great review, Guido! Yes, this new C Class is exceptional in terms of driving dynamics, and interior layout. I just traded my 2012 C class for this, and I am just lovin' it. Mine is the C300 4Matic and the transmission is top notch, with seamless power on tap. The sweet spot is the sport mode, where you get a nice comfortable ride, and excellent throttle response. Looking forward to your next, great review!! Keep up the good work!!

[@TheGetawayer]

jtstar10 : That's awesome to hear ! Thanks for the great feedback and all the best for your ownership ! Maybe send me a picture of your car to my fb-page if you like ;) Greetings from germany, Guido

[@MikePT15]

Excellent review Guido. For the first time a C-Class looks and drives good. Mercedes is working really hard. In terms of design they just hit the right spot and in therms of driving pleasure their doing all the right things. I think that of the 3 german biggest companies (audi, bmw, mercedes) is the one that is improving more.

[@oscarlee4531]

Hi Guido, I think ur videos are truly outstanding and frankly underrated. I would really REALLY like to see you review the Porsche 911 GT3 for like your hundredth video. Somethin special.... keep up the good work (great camera angles)

[@TheGetawayer]

Oscar Lee : Thank you very much Oscar ! I will try my best, haha...Stay tuned :)

[@younghans2328]

i lost count on how much of amazing words already mentioned by you Guido and seriously..that shoulder pinch thou ;)

[@TheGetawayer]

Milo Micey Haha, I'm glad you like the video and enjoy the car Milo !

[@thecarbandits7834]

When Audis have looked the same for 10 years or so and BMW's 3 series have such a basic looking interior the Merc is way above them all this time and about time too. well done Mercedes

[@MrWichai]

Great review indeed

[@TheGetawayer]

Tony Song Thank you !

[@younghans2328]

i was torn bad betwen 328i and this all new C Class Avantgarde 2014. BUT the moment i got to this video..i know exactly what i want..Mercedes Benz tat is!

[@dm002a8686]

Great review.. Awesome Car

[@TheGetawayer]

Thanks !

[@macarows4014]

You are definitely one of the small group of awesome car reviewers we have on YT. After Chris Harris videos got under lock (pay fr view) now I am only watching your reviews. Only you and Harris have to offer different approach to cars compared to others. I hope you will get S63 AMG on test soon.

[@TheGetawayer]

Ma Art : I'm glad you enjoyed the video ! AMG cars are very hard to get, but I hope somebody at Mercedes reads your and other comments :)

[@DieselDrives]

This new C-class blew me away. I didn't care for it initially because Mercedes didn't launch the car in the US with too much fanfare. The CLA gets more attention, and I wrote off the W205 as just a CLA. I had a huge misconception of the C-class, and all I can say is don't knock it till you try it. I really agree with this video review. The screen placement is awkward but the airmatic suspension is a must-have.

[@naperking]

Great video Guido, I've been looking to learn more about the new C-Class and this video answered all my questions and then some! That interior is really something. Are you going to do an F8X M3/M4 review? If you do, and you get a manual transmission, I'd love to hear your thoughts on the auto rev-matching feature.

[@TheGetawayer]

Thanks I'm glad to hear the video helps ! Sadly BMW doesn't support independent reviewers with testcars unlike Audi, Mercedes or Porsche. So there is no chance for me to film a review and test the M3...Greetings Guido

[@naperking]

TheGetawayer Their mistake. A review from Guido can do wonders for a car's reputation! Though it sounds like maybe the new engine in the M3/M4 is kind of a let down.

[@Valerius333]

Nice video pal, i was really disappointed with the interior of the previous model. It was so dull and boring, didn't feel like you were driving a Mercedes. But now it's perfect inside and out, with the colorful ambient lighting at night it looks stunning. Very nice video.

[@TheGetawayer]

Valerius333 Thanks ! Yes, the car has improved in a massive way

[@tjreganrx]

I am considering the new C300 and was considering passing on the air suspension, but after your review I think it is a must have option. Thanks

[@TheGetawayer]

Tim Regan : Great to hear that, thanks for watching Tim ! Greetings from germany, Guido / TheGetawayer

[@jackthorpe56]

Loving this new generation of mercedes! Can't wait to see the new e class!

[@jordanl5064]

Honestly I feel like the E class is completely pointless with these new gen C class.

[@jackthorpe56]

+Jake Woodbury wait until they update the e-class

[@mornadu]

I am a huge fan of Mercedes Benz. And after having watched some of your earlier reviews, I was expecting you to have alot of negative points about this car. Alot of people will rate the BMW 3 series higher than the C class by default because BMW is always ahead in the sportyness department in their minds. But this new C class really is a huge step forward for Mercedes, and I think that it's absoulety a blast to drive.

[@TheGetawayer]

mornadu : You see, like I said at the end I was not ready to be so impressed by the C-Class...But, that's the great thing about being an independent reviewer who doesn't earn his living from car reviews: I can share my honest opinion and surprise my viewers ;)

[@mornadu]

TheGetawayer That is exactly why I watch your work my friend. I am hoping that you will get your hands on the C63 once its out!

[@dzpatriot]

Truth hurts, it's ///the ultimate driving machine you're talking about.

[@l.jamesjunior.d5099]

I like this review

[@TheGetawayer]

L.James Junior.D Thanks !

[@adrianwhitehead2331]

exceptional review. thankyou.

[@johnnysler6220]

What a great car this one seems to be (will test drive one by myself soon); I never have liked so much Mercedes-Benz (preferred BMW and Audi), but they seem to keep catching up in regards to emotional and sportier (and "affordable") cars. Great review btw!

[@TheGetawayer]

Johnny Sler Thanks !

[@anthonybarber9511]

We've ordered a C Class 250d AMG line estate with premium plus pack. It's due for September 18th delivery. After reading reviews for months and test driving the C Class & 3 series 335d Xdrive. I adored the drive of the BMW but the styling of the C Class it beautiful. I know the 3 series it much much quicker car but honestly, how many of us drive that quick every day? Once the novilty of the speed wore off I'd miss the styling and the toys of the C Class. I'll post again as soon as it's delivered. I'm sure we've made the right choice. Only could afford 1 option. The 360 degree camera. (£335.00) Colour is Brillant Blue met paint. Anthony.

[@juukame]

Just listen to that door slam, a nice solid, 'whump'. Call it nitpicky but that sort of thing is important to me in a car.

[@TheGetawayer]

juukame Very true, the doors are very well isolated and you can feel it at high speed there is very little wind noise. Great to see you notice such a detail !

[@pqnguyen]

Great review, as always, Getawayer! The only this I wish was that you would have spent time specifically on the Sport+ mode, but you may have felt it was similar to the Sport. I was thinking about getting the C400 here in the U.S., but they announced a new C450 AMG model that will be coming in September, so I will probably go with that one.

[@TheGetawayer]

pqnguyen Thanks ! All I can say is that I was super impressed and very satiesfied with the way the car drove in all modes. The C450 AMG has been flying abit under the radar, haven't actually seen a proper review of one yet. I will propably test the C63 later this year. Very much looking forward to being in a new C-Class again:)

[@kimikisser]

TheGetawayer Oh Wow. I can't wait to see your review of the 63AMG!!!Do you actually own a car? If so, what car did you buy?Anthony.

[@NicolaB.]

BEST CAR EVER

[@Jack-oz8fs]

I did see your review on the 507, it's a beast! I was just hoping the new cars comes with bigger fender flares and larger rear tires. I hope you can review the M4/M3 soon.

[@TheGetawayer]

Sadly BMW doesn't give me testcars...

[@itsruw]

Ist das Leder in deinem Video das Cranberry Red ? Hatte es mir deutlich greller vorgestellt, aber so sieht es echt schick aus. Ich vermisse bei den "normalen" (nicht designo) Optionen ein wenig eine schöne sattelbraune Lederfarbe

[@Jack-oz8fs]

Good review. I'm looking forward to the AMG version. I just hope it comes with a more aggressive looks with bigger tires and fender flares. The previous C63 was not aggressive looking as the M cars.

[@TheGetawayer]

Jack : Thanks ! Did you see my C63 507 review ? I thought that was one of the most agressive looking cars I ever tested, haha : ' 2013 / 2014 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Edition 507 ' Test Drive & Review - TheGetawayer

[@Pilotwilliambmx]

My cousin got a 2015 version yesterday so beautiful 😍👌

[@juandv930722]

has it been reliable?

[@arunarjun85]

Awesome

[@iamcrazyi]

Thanks for the fantastic review, Guido!! Over here in the United States, I have owned Japanese cars my entire life….and swore that I would never own anything else. I love my Lexus, but the new C from MB looks to be an AMAZING car…..and I'm going to take one for a test drive next week. I keep building a new one on the Mercedes website and drooling over it!! =) Having a detailed and thoughtful review like this, makes it a little easier to make a decision on such a big purchase, and I'm sure driving it in person will help also! Do you know the name of the track/song you used at the beginning of your video? I'd like to find it. Thanks again!

[@TheGetawayer]

Michael York Thanks Michael ! I'm glad the video helped you and a test drive would be great to see if it really is the right car for you. The links for the music can be found under the video. It's royalty free and you can download it for free. Greetings from germany, Guido

[@davidnyoni3946]

hi there have u done a review on the c w204 ?????'

[@anthonyjaswinski5732]

Late to this review but great insight. Mercedes has always been a hallmark of luxury but not really style or driver engaging feedback. That C300 is definitely both hardcore. The W205 will definitely be a sought after look for years to come.

[@Guerra1301]

good review, and a beautiful machine in relation to C63 AMG edition 507 2013/14 which is best? you will review of the Audi A7 2014?

[@TheGetawayer]

Guerra1301 : Thanks ! Very much looking forward to the new AMG C-Class...Not sure about the A7, but if Audi offers me one, I won't say no ;)

[@donk6906]

Would be great to see you review the new corvette c7 ...Great Review btw Cheers

[@TheGetawayer]

Thanks ! Sadly Chevy doesn't answer emails...Get asked about the C7alot but..No press car no review :)

[@DGRWPF]

Great review! I have a very similar one, actually the only difference is that mine has black leather seats that are also cooled. I have already done 15 000 km. :D P.S. The sound system is really good, but the 24-speakers from the S class sounds better. :D

[@suzyfey1999]

Nice Review again Guido! :) I'm not sure if I agree on everything, but you certainly are right when you say that this is the best car in its segment at this moment. Especially the interior looks very nice. I'm looking forward to drive a 6-cylinder, 4-matic (hopefully diesel) version of the T-modell if and when that comes available. It may even be a replacement candidate for my A6 Avant next year... And as you know, that's not something I would easily say about a Mercedes. I'm curious what Audi will come up with though. The current A4 has become too dated to be a serious opponent for BMW and Mercedes.

[@TheGetawayer]

Suzanne Feyens : I care about your feedback alot Suzanne, since few people have such indepth knowledge as you have...I can't wait to hear from you after a test drive, haha...I think Mercedes has learned alot from Audi and Mercedes, so it's only fair to give them credit imo...I think I prefer the design of the new C-Class and what I've seen about the new 2015 A4, that won't change...It's just lovely :)

[@fse7794]

do these still have timing chain problems as in the model before?

[@KillJONDead]

Hey guido. I was thinking since you didn't like the gt86 so much but what about one with suspention upgrades and a supercharger. If you come back to America sometime I'm near Orlando Florida.

[@TheGetawayer]

Jon Diperna Not planing to visit the states anytime soon, but maybe ThatDudeinBlue is up for the job ? :)

[@RAMSEY1987]

being in the UK Right hand drive would make the touch pad difficult for most people to use with the left hand

[@SPRCRS]

Sieht zwar aus wie ne kleine S-Klasse, aber das ziemlich gut! Bin mal auf den AMG gespannt :P

[@lilaalexinglis1436]

That car is seriously beautiful. And I am seriously jealous! Yup, this will be my first Mercedes. Is this the European model? What about it isdifferent from Canadian model?

[@2pacMakaveli777]

Review the cls63 amg please!

[@santerixdxd]

Waiting for the plug in version to come on sale

[@micoaraujo]

Well... I just watched and I drove the new C Class recently at Estoril Race Track, done two laps with it and I as amazed with the handling...the car I drove had the AMG Package and the braking was so, so good...sadly it was just two laps and right when I was getting used to the chassis I had to park the car at the Paddock... lol Sadly my car didn't have the Burmeister Sound and the Airmatic suspension...oh...and it was a 177hp C 220 CDI. Right after I drove the C Class I said to my self...screw the F30 3 Series... lol And I drove that one as well...having said that, I'd choose the C Class in a heartbeat, that interior, my oh my....

[@rabsaya7875]

Well built cars come on a regular basis. Informative, factual, and systematic reviews do not. I have only recently joined your channel and I commend you on a job well done. Mercedes is obviously trying in this segment to appeal to the sub 40 clients that have a twitch in their right foot and still need to drive to work everyday at 8:00. And I think you brought that message across. Well done and keep up the good work.

[@TheGetawayer]

Rabs Aya Thanks for the very postive feedback, Rabs ! I really couldn't lie: I was very impressed by the new C-Class. Mercedes has done a great job here...Greetings from germany, Guido aka TheGetawayer

[@NYCaddicted]

Klasse Video und was für eine Ausstattung, wow ! Aber wie Du es unten bereits geschrieben hast, 71,000 für eine C-Klasse ... Ist halt schon heftig :)

[@TheGetawayer]

Mercedes war schon immer teuer, aber ich denke so ein Pressewagen soll eben auch immer alles zeigen was geht...Obwohl hier auch noch einiges fehlt, z.B. die Sitzbelüftung ;)

[@ThehayesfamilyVideos]

What color is that car? Is it the diamond silver metallic? It looks almost blue.

[@RAMSEY1987]

is there a hybrid review?

[@SaturdayCarFever]

I own one and I'm addicted to this car and that Burmester kick-ass sound system! :D You can see my movies and acceleration tests 0-100-0km/h. BTW My wife likes that center screen isn't driver oriented so there is a reason why Mercedes decided to put it in neutral stance.

[@TheGetawayer]

Mercedes C200 . Very cool ! Hope you will enjoy your ownership !

[@JakeTompalski95]

Any idea on when you might be able to review the W205 C63? Hopefully soon since I'd love to see a review before my Edition 1 C63S arrives.

[@TheGetawayer]

Jake Tompakski I don't know yet, Jake, but usually I'm not at the launch events but wait until I can get a testcar for a road test here in southwestern germany. I think we're looking for summer, but that's all I know at the moment...Greetings from germany, Guido aka TheGetawayer

[@JakeTompalski95]

TheGetawayer Alright thanks for the reply! I can't wait to see the review whenever you'll be able to make it :)

[@prokoplouda8758]

Nice review! Could you please tell me more abou C250 engine? Is it good? Thinking about it, impossible to test, diesel everywhere :) How is flexible acceleration? What color you have for test? Is it Palladium? Thanks

[@TheGetawayer]

Prokop Louda I was very happy with it...Decent acceleration, good torque ( it's a turbo engine so you expect that ) and the fuel economy was fine too. So yeah, I can recommend the C250 :)

[@prokoplouda8758]

TheGetawayer thanks. Ordered car yesterday. Is that car in your review diamond silver or iridium? Thanks

[@Tru3OzGam3rs]

Wow. Really made me want it. I still can't choose between e250-2011 or c250-2014. Any suggestions

[@TheGetawayer]

yusuf omer Go for the C250. Much nicer to drive, better interior, everything :)

[@fe1138lix]

Über das Getriebe habe ich eigentlich bisher kaum etwas Positives gehört, immer hieß es dass die 8-Gang-Automatik von ZF in den BMW's wäre deutlich besser. Wirst du auch mal die E-Klasse mit der neuen 9-Gang-Automatik fahren? Klasse Video, wie immer :)

[@TheGetawayer]

fe1138lix : Mercedes hat ja an der 7G Tronic gearbeitet und ich finde das spürt man sehr deutlich. Die ZF ist sicher noch etwas schneller im manuellen Modus, aber das ist wirklich schon Erbsenzählerei. Mit der neuen Segelfunktion hat Mercedes auch noch ein Ass im Ärmel...Wenn man mir eine E-Klasse anbietet, nehme ich sie gerne an :)

[@Alphapunk2]

does anyone know if a diesel or petrol engine is better for a city with lots of traffic jams?

[@ironcityblue]

.24? That's amazing

[@jinsk5704]

Can you still expect a good ride quality without airmatic suspension? I am thinking to only apply amg package without airmatic...

[@TheGetawayer]

Jin sk Yes, but I would advise you to test drive the car before you buy it just to make sure that you like it

[@fredlachy]

Despite being a BMW fanboy, though I'm a fan of different marques too, I'd have to agree with your view on the C class being the class leader. As soon as I read the specifications in Wheels magazine before the release date I knew this would be the best car in its class. The build quality is stunning. Only criticisms for me are that the screen detracts from the aesthetic appeal of the interior as does the centre console touchpad, which is made redundant by the circular toggle switch. This would not stop me from buying one if I 1. had the means:) and 2 had a family, as the engineering is brilliant.

[@TheGetawayer]

Lachee Brun : Thanks for the comment !

I really hate that new gear shift on the c class. That dainty little lever is really annoying to get used to.

[@chonaV]

I hate myself for not waiting for this car. I got the Infiniti Q50. A very good car as well with lots of power and technology, but this car just captures my heart. But, I still need to test drive this car though to see how it compares, and if it drives as awesome as it looks, then I am in trouble ;-)

[@TheGetawayer]

Alex Haha, well I have very little experience with Infinitis ( not a popular brand here in Audi-BMW-Mercedes-Land ) but I filmed a review of the M30d a while ago and liked it alot. Keep me updated and tell me your impressions after the test drive :)

[@azmidahari6439]

@TheGetawayer totally agree with you. I'm driving a bmw btw

[@TheGetawayer]

Azmi Dahari Haha, me too ;)

[@kooldog98]

why does the media screen have such a thick border? they could have made it smaller but extend the image to the edges.

[@kakaoen4]

+kooldog88 You can buy that as an option to get bigger screen that will have a thinner border.

Can I just thank you for probably the most practical review of the W205 C Class... I have struggled to find straightforward review of the chassis and suspension.... we have just ordered a 2016 C200 with AMG and lots of extras but we just could not decide on the suspension... we are in Dubai and had the dealer usually fitting the sports suspension, 19" wheels & AMG kit.... but I am pulled between the Agility with damper control or the Airmatic ???? Do you have any thoughts ?..... I also spotted in your review you had the digital speedo showing in the small centre screen right in front of the driver in large digits ..... in the demo car we had we just could not find how to do it .... I would be really grateful for your guidance.... but again thanks for a really well done review :-) All the best Darren

[@394bowser]

A base 2015 C-Class costs $10,000 more than a base 3 series, but it's totally worth it.

[@STEVE33437]

Guido~~The horizontal piece on the instrumental panel that looks like aluminum is cheap plastic on vehicles offered in the USA! Is it different on German models?

[@TheGetawayer]

Steve W : I didn't touch it, haha, but I doubt any manufacturer would use real aluminium on such a panel, Steve..I would be worried if it was so cheap that it ratteles or causes sounds, but to my eyes it looks great :)

[@STEVE33437]

TheGetawayer I really thought that this plus the screen that looked like an afterthought took away from the car! I own a 2014 Cadillac ATS which I think surpasses the Mercedes. I've owned several Mercedes previously and really liked them but I think both the CLA & C really are not the quality to be expected. But only my opinion!

[@TheGetawayer]

Steve W : I would love to check out the ATS myself since I hear so many postive things about them. Sadly I never hear back from Chevrolet when I email them...I think Mercedes has worked on the quality and is on a good path again. The CLA isn't the best example though, the C-Class has a much nicer build quality imo

[@STEVE33437]

TheGetawayer It is a very good car, Cadillac finally got their act together! Chevrolet, I've read, is withdrawing from Europe to strengthen Opel even though they will continue to sponsor the Manchester United soccer team..Perhaps this is why they didn't reply.

[@TheGetawayer]

Steve W : I doubt there is a connection between the german pr-department and their marketing, but still an interesting point :)

[@jamilmukhtar4619]

Beautiful car but i don't know why i just prefer the dashboard and screen of the old C-class. Other than that, everything looks real good in this car, can't wait to see how the AMG does

[@TheGetawayer]

Jamil Mukhtar : The screen placement isn't all that great, I agree. I wish they had made it like the one in the S-Class...Still get's the job done and the rest of the interior is much nicer. Try it ;)

[@jamilmukhtar4619]

TheGetawayer I saw the S-Class, it is very well done. I think the new design fits it perfectly along with the E-Class. I hope they improve the screen placement when they make the AMG model but for now i will stick to my C-63. Also hope the engine for the new AMG is similar to the current C-63

[@TheGetawayer]

Jamil Mukhtar : It will be a turbo-charged engine as far as I know...Very different to the current C63...Hopefully it won't be a 6 cylinder like in the M3 haha

[@jamilmukhtar4619]

TheGetawayer I hope not because the M3 looks great but the engine lets it down. I won't mind if the new engine makes the car faster though. Anyways i know the guys at AMG won't disappoint and great video as always

[@korintusnara7563]

Jamil Mukhtar they won't get rid of the v8, i watch a video about c class on another channel, i can't mention the channel tho..

[@fatihozdemirr]

If you dont mind, could you tell me about a wind noise km limit or did you decide any problem cabin noise ratio? Thanks..

[@TheGetawayer]

RFatih Özdemir I drove the car up to its top speed of 250 km'h and it stayed very quite inside. A very comfortable car, I'm sure you'd be impressed

[@fatihozdemirr]

Thanks for informing. Have a nice week..

[@UhhhhhnooOOo00oO]

The old cheap 300. Beautiful car but inexpensive and never go turbo [This is also the top spec, add thousands upon thousands to the cost]

[@blaz9841]

7 years later and this thing is still so expensive...

[@flyclyfire188]

I just brought one 3 days ago I love this damn car

[@zaahirallie6712]

Take C180 light cheaper it's 60 percent of original value

[@potatoaydin4112]

and it still looks brand new

[@prokoplouda8758]

Did you have airmatic on car you have been testing? You are talking about automatically adjusting dampers, so its not Airmatic? Thanks

[@TheGetawayer]

Prokop Louda Yes Airmatic, I discuss it in the video :)

[@ohitsmeoh]

TheGetawayer but I think Airmatic only replaces the spring, not the dampers.

[@delboy2596]

Looking forward to a Coupe version.

[@TheGetawayer]

Del Johnson : Me too !
