Cons outweighs Pros
Pros: It's a looker inside out for something that was purchased <$30K used with 40k miles. Surprisingly sporty without compromising comfort. Prestige that comes with the brand. Burmester system looks and sounds amazing. Cons: I took mine to an independent Mercedes specialist for service and repairs since "Service A" which is basically an oil change costs upwards of $300 for a 4 cylinder at dealerships. C300 4Matic sport pack comes with the unnecessary staggered tires. Mercedes interior creak is a real thing. interior looks very expensive, just don't touch anything. This was my daily driver and I put about 30k miles annually. PCV failed at ~60k miles. This seems to be a common issue with early W205's. At 70k miles, AC compressor failed. These 2 repairs alone cost me approx. $4k. At ~85k miles transmission started slipping, so I had to let her go. I know Mercedes are not cheap to maintain, but reliability does not allow me to enjoy the car without worry.

Buyer beware
This model suffers from several factory defects. Problem with a vent assembly cause gasoline smell inside the vehicle. Failure of wrist pins in cylinder 1 destroy the engine.

Love it
Bought it as certified used with 14,000: miles and 3 years old. Absolutely love the car. Now have 60,00 miles on it. Only cost other than routine maintenance has been tires. One dislike is run flat tires. They make no sense. Also did not like the engine shut down at stops ostensibly to save fuel, but I was able to over ride that. And I bought a spare tire and wheel another major issue for me is you cand buy a trailer hitch for a C 400. You can for other C cars, but not the 400.

Very disappointed with this one.
Stylish: I get many complements on the car. Luxurious: I feel like I’ve “made it” when I drive it. Tech heavy: it took 7 years to figure out how to program in radio stations. Comfortable: can drive for hours without feeling worn out. Those are the good points. Continuous problems with the transmission shifting and hunting for gears then the car goes into limp-home mode until you can pull over and restart the car to clear the code. Tires don’t last more than 30K miles with reasonable driving. The head unit for the stereo quit under warranty but we had to pay SiriusXM to restart the radio. The drivers door squeaks so I coat the rubbers with WS40 every couple of months. The grill louvers started squealing like a pig and had to be replaced several times. Now they are telling me it needs an expensive transmission repair.

Best car I ever owned
This car has been the best and most reliable car I have ever owned. My wife got a new car for her birthday or I would not be selling it now.

Dealership service is very poor
The car is cool but the service is bad. I don't recommend a Mercedes to anyone in Puerto Rico. I recommend better a BMW which has a better administration.
