A car like that is not for 4 adults, too much emphasis is placed on lugging passengers, it would take your wife/girlfriend and a couple kids. A car such as this do not need to be driven aggressively or fast, stepping up to this class , is for pleasure drives cruising boulevards and urban avenues... I like it a lot.
Mercedes is a brand that you have to experience to appreciate. Test drove one of these and its suv sibling the GLC today. The craftsmanship on these cars is second to none in the range of its competition. Notice he didnt even push the car. Push the car around corners, push the acceleration... you'll see just how much these things can handle when thrown at it. But yes, the overall purpose is a luxury experience . Quiet cabin, arresting looks, a statement car. While BMW and Audi are great, I believe Mercedes is the best overall value and quality you can buy for your money.
If you want to be able to seat 4 people comfortably, then buy a 4 door. If you want to canyon carve get a AMG! I have a 2018 AMG C43 Coupe. It is an awesome car. It has 4Matic and it cranks! With the switches I can make it as fast and loud, or as calm and quiet as I want! I love my AMG!
Great looking car. I love Mercedes' new aggressive look. Never too late to join the party MB. Well done. . It's between Merc and Audi for me. Both Audi and MB excel in useable German luxury whereas BMW concentrates on track cars. The new A5 is released soon so looking forward to that. Im looking at the upcoming C43 vs the new upcoming S5 and will decide which is best.
It's a nice looking car. Did Mercedes finally fix the issues with using poor quality adhesives that gave such strong out-gassing that it would literally make you sick. I hope so, because it's a beautiful car otherwise. For those that may be wondering, I had (for all of 200 miles and 2 weeks) a 2011 E350 Cabriolet. Absolutly beautiful car, but it gave off such a horrible out-gassing smell from the adhesives used that I or anyone in the car would get light-headed, and sick to your stomach. This was not a 'typical new car out-gassing' smell. You actually couldn't even really smell it over the 'new car smell' but it came on after being in the car for a short time. I was crushed as this was my 'dream car'. Mercedes bought the car back, no questions asked. I ended up purchasing a 2011 BMW 535I MSport.
I like when mercedes chooses to keep a dash of wood in there, it makes it look a lot classier, specially with those air con vents, the dashboard is just right, well at least it should when im paying 56k for a car with 23 mpg
Looks like the Merc engineers wanted something like the Audi A5 and this what they came up with. The interior looks like a nice place to be behind the drivers wheel, but that info-tainment screen STILL looks like an after thought. It is a heck of a car, but MB could've done better.
I don't see how is the rear looks similar to Accord coupe? completely far from it, I love the rear, actually I fell in love with the new C-Coupe instantly because of it, reminded me of iron man some how lol
so this is a just a exact copy of the S class coupe but just smaller. and let me get this right, there is a C class coupe and there is an E class coupe??
that motorized rearview camera is just another thing to break in a few years so MB can make money off of it. Benz doesnt make money selling cars, they make it fixing them
Mercedes, BMW, Audi - these are the cars I'd rent while on vacation. Would rather have a more dependable car to buy (own) with my hard earned money {Lexus, Infiniti, Cadillac, Acura or even a Jag (which I'd lease and not buy)}.
Not for nothing, according to consumer reports for the most reliable new cars of 2016, Audi is right underneath Lexus and Toyota. BMW is pretty high up, too. Ironically enough, Mercedes is at the bottom of the list framed with some of the least reliable vehicles like Jeep, Chrysler, Dodge, Fiat...
It's a 'coupe' so please stop calling it a 'cou-pay. I think it is absolutely ridiculous when they call a 4-door this other word which doesn't make sense; 4-doors = a sedan! If its a car with 2-doors it's a coupe. Anyway, with that said, I do wish they made this a hatchback style lift gate sort of like the Audi TT. Yes, I'm sure it would add a little more weight, but you'd gain some, not a lot, some utility.
It looks like a smaller version of the s-class coupe. I miss the individualism of each tier of mercedes sedans & coupes. They had that down pact. Now they all pretty much look the same. I really hate that in my opinion. Now its pretty much you have a $35,000 car and a $200,000 car that looks the same. Well the only Mercedes I would buy (If I hit the lottery and lost my mind at the same time) would be the G Class (G Wagon). I personally love the 6x6. Its different and it stand out.
I am not a big fan of how they are making cars like this with low roof lines and almost no windows. It similar to the Camaro in which it seems the roof is too low all.you see is the drivers head.
Allen N u shouldn't ever say something u have no fact or knowledge about. My father owned an s class, I have been in several of the newer models and I have been in several m class models and so many other benz models. I prefer touch screens, I never said their interface through the mouse like control isn't good or not suitable for some. But I just prefer touch screens cause it's just faster to do things even if not a massive difference. You should learn how to talk sensibly instead of talking xxl trash like someone who thinks he knows much about benz when I doubt u have ever had an s class in your family. That's how stupid u sound making such accusations. Benz have their policy of not using touchscreens and I don't like it. Hope that isn't hard for u to digest.
That was the W204... Even back then, it didn't look like the accord, an this is is far from it.. In fact, it probably resembles the last generation BMW coupes.
+soulofthebang idk man I've driven Mercedes. Some of the lower models ride fine. Honda has always done a fantastic job with build quality and you can feel it when you drive one.
Yeah, Mercedes has no other coupes in this line. If you're thinking E class Coupé, that is not only a class above, but is about to be replaced by a new E class Coupé. Since Mercedes brought in the CLA, all the models have sort of moved up a class. So the next E Coupé will be much more luxurious.
Great looking car. I mean gorgeous. 2 things I hate: no manual (I know, I know, it's a luxury car blah blah blah.), and that stupid screen that doesn't go away. Why can't they go the Audi route and have a hide feature? Definitely not a driver's car, not even in a GT sense.
I'm so sick of these guys always talking about "loss of feel" in the steering wheel as if it was ever a good thing. C'mon, just let it go. All cars are switching to electronic steering systems of some kind. Just deal with it.
Hi people. Just a quick question: With videos like these (Car reviews and the like); when people click the "Thumbs Up" or "Thumbs Down" button; is it because they like (or dislike) the car being reviewed or do they like (or dislike) how the review is presented? Thanks in advance....
MC Stradale is looking better, less than $100k after 2yrs still has 2yr warranty add another 2yrs $2500, high residual value vs M3, M5. Alfa is the other one but just comes with stick
If you want a sexy, coke-bottle shape, just get a Mustang or Camaro, for half the price with more powerful 4 cyl turbos. Or save over $10,000 by getting the fully loaded V8s.
***** Consumer Reports 2015 reliability survey ranked Mercedes-Benz 21 out of 28 car brands. In 2014, it ranked 24. The C-Class has below average reliability, and is the least reliable model in the MB lineup.
I agree it's a better daily driver with passengers. Superior, overpriced money pit, with plastic water pumps. If it's so irrelevant, then why do customers "keep score", brag, or exercise classism? Notice, no one has bothered defending this C-Class coupe, since it's a platform based on MB's biggest money pit.
That rear end is fugly. MB really have sold out to the volume sales. Such a shame they no longer build high quality cars. But I suppose they would have gone bust if they carried on with that philosophy.
***** Whilst your proclivity for homosexual congress is only to be expected, I am somewhat surprised at you accusing Nathan of indulging in such activities. I trust you are aware of the laws governing libel⁉️😖😖😖
It's a mini S-Class coupe! So beautiful
Everyone's saying not enough power.. Then get the V8 C63 coupe. Or the V6 C43
I agree Mercedes Benz stylist have started to emulate Honda I'm not the only one who sees that
A car like that is not for 4 adults, too much emphasis is placed on lugging passengers, it would take your wife/girlfriend and a couple kids.
A car such as this do not need to be driven aggressively or fast, stepping up to this class , is for pleasure drives cruising boulevards and urban avenues... I like it a lot.
Yes I totally agree. I like it too
The rear view camera is very creative by the way it solves design and functionality issues. I'm giving props to Mercedes for that feature!
+youfermont
yup, blatant rip off
Mercedes is a brand that you have to experience to appreciate. Test drove one of these and its suv sibling the GLC today.

One of the rare Mercedes' I'd love to own.
got my blue c300 last week !!!! Very satisfied! What a wonderful machine!! 🙂
For those complaining, it's not supposed to be sporty. At least not the C300. The C43 and C63 on the other hand, are.
A very professional channel. Love the way you present your reviews. I subscribed. For life. Excellent work, gentlemen.
someone ask that guy with the 3 pointed star sticker on his chest why we can get ventilated seats in the C300 but not the AMG models..
This Is my next purchase. I fell in love with this whip being single, no kids. Why not?
Can't wait for the convertible so gonna get one . It's like having the s class convertible without the price tags
k
+michael nelson I'm gonna steal one from someone
+ZS K me too. preferably a red one
getting mine today
Luv1234 how did it go
Did you get it?
LOVE the taillights! They look like the ones on the s550 coupe
In and around LIttleton, the Seacoast of New Hampshire and New England...beautiful part of the country.
how the fuck you can say that this car is ugly? are you ok in your priuses lollll?
Nice review. Whats the verdict... Do you prefer the Coupe or Sedan?
I love these new videos on 1080p/60fps !!!
If you want to be able to seat 4 people comfortably, then buy a 4 door. If you want to canyon carve get a AMG! I have a 2018 AMG C43 Coupe. It is an awesome car. It has 4Matic and it cranks! With the switches I can make it as fast and loud, or as calm and quiet as I want! I love my AMG!
Less doors, a wider lower stance and bigger tires definitely give it more sex appeal.
looks great. blends style, craftmanship, and practicality.
y does it look so much like the S-class coupè
Becuase every car mercedes make looks like an s class
dude is 7 ft tall and goes "It's very tight back here".. Derp, of course it is.
62000$ for a c class? I remember e class costing around 62000$ after bells & whistles.
If the USDM coupe uses the brake lights as turning signals, then what's the white section for?
Great looking car. I love Mercedes' new aggressive look. Never too late to join the party MB. Well done. . It's between Merc and Audi for me.

It kind of reminds me of a CC Sport from the back! Thanks for the great review.

This was not a 'typical new car out-gassing' smell. You actually couldn't even really smell it over the 'new car smell' but it came on after being in the car for a short time. I was crushed as this was my 'dream car'.
Mercedes bought the car back, no questions asked. I ended up purchasing a 2011 BMW 535I MSport.
What do you recommend:
C300 coupe
Or
430i
Please explain
Thank you
C300

Should I get this or the Camaro V8
That new picture sound y'all love is a little annoying but it is way too loud. It's twice as loud as the commentary
As much as I love the look I still think the latest 4 series from BMW looks better and meaner. The M4 just looks freaking badass.
+Bora Markovic So you are comparing a standard c300 coupe to a high end sports car like the M4 ?? How about comparing to the c63s ...the M4 will suck.
Please tell me that's not a 4 cyl
It is but you can get a 6 or 8 cylinder on different models.
Could the console be any glossier? Someone at Mercedes has a relative in the lacquer business.
How about road noise and wind noise , compare with sedan ?
those two things to the right and left of the license plate ruin the design... it isn't there on the European model
Will the coupe get the c450 like the sedan?
at 2:22 sounds like they are ripping off Audi's music they use for their cars.
Hey Roman! I live in New Hampshire and the area looks extremely farmiliar. Where did Mercedes-Benz send you in New Hampshire?
Thomas Cain just up the road
The whole purpose of a coupe is for me to be alone I'm a solo driver dont need any company "introverted"
Greedy Stevie I plan on buying one used in a few years a coupe is all I need
I don't see how is the rear looks similar to Accord coupe? completely far from it, I love the rear, actually I fell in love with the new C-Coupe instantly because of it, reminded me of iron man some how lol
so this is a just a exact copy of the S class coupe but just smaller. and let me get this right, there is a C class coupe and there is an E class coupe??
Tried this out and yes the back seat is tiny even if your 5 9" and another person in the back driver would have to be too far forward.
that motorized rearview camera is just another thing to break in a few years so MB can make money off of it. Benz doesnt make money selling cars, they make it fixing them
Mercedes, BMW, Audi - these are the cars I'd rent while on vacation. Would rather have a more dependable car to buy (own) with my hard earned money {Lexus, Infiniti, Cadillac, Acura or even a Jag (which I'd lease and not buy)}.

Does the sunroof move or does it just pop up?
You guys should do a side by side with the Accord coupe just for kicks with this Mercedes
Are the back seats foldable?
sure!
It's a 'coupe' so please stop calling it a 'cou-pay. I think it is absolutely ridiculous when they call a 4-door this other word which doesn't make sense; 4-doors = a sedan! If its a car with 2-doors it's a coupe. Anyway, with that said, I do wish they made this a hatchback style lift gate sort of like the Audi TT. Yes, I'm sure it would add a little more weight, but you'd gain some, not a lot, some utility.
The REAR looks like a ninth gen Honda Accord coupe!!
How was Schilling?
+DeShawn Williams great
The product manager looks like the actor who plays Spider-Man in The Amazing Spider-Man movies :-p
Does he not know about the C450 or something? You would think the rep would have filled him in on that one...
It looks like a smaller version of the s-class coupe. I miss the individualism of each tier of mercedes sedans & coupes. They had that down pact. Now they all pretty much look the same.

I am not a big fan of how they are making cars like this with low roof lines and almost no windows. It similar to the Camaro in which it seems the roof is too low all.you see is the drivers head.
Hopefully the redesign the e class coupe soon
It's still not touch screen in 2017? Not something i would consider at all
Allen N u shouldn't ever say something u have no fact or knowledge about. My father owned an s class, I have been in several of the newer models and I have been in several m class models and so many other benz models.

Allen N the new BMW 7 series is a touch screen
With that power output I hope its pretty light.
+Jeff K the gti in your picture could beat a c300 in a race
is that a h&m hoodie?
That side crease reminds me of a BMW 4 series.
Almost 60k for a 4 banger coupe??!! It looks good I'll give it that but you can get an American v8 for that price
I get Honda Accord coupe vibes with this car.
That was the W204... Even back then, it didn't look like the accord, an this is is far from it.. In fact, it probably resembles the last generation BMW coupes.
if you paues the video from the front if you cover it with your finger the rest of the car looks like a Honda Accord Coupe
Is the Mercedes rep single?
it looks like honda accord coupe
+Mohammed Abdulla yeah the rear profile when he first started freeze framing looks just like an accord coupe with less agressive lines
+soulofthebang idk man I've driven Mercedes. Some of the lower models ride fine. Honda has always done a fantastic job with build quality and you can feel it when you drive one.
Looks like an Accord coupe? My thoughts exactly.
Mo Lo it does not
so expensive for the power @@
2:32 isn't that Johnny Lieberman from Head2head?
At 2:31 of you freeze I think your right.
How much would this car cost ?
Nice car.
why? you have other coupés in the line arpund the same size. This move is not going to be profitable.
And which one is that ? This is the direct competitor to the 4series and a5/s5
Yeah, Mercedes has no other coupes in this line. If you're thinking E class Coupé, that is not only a class above, but is about to be replaced by a new E class Coupé. Since Mercedes brought in the CLA, all the models have sort of moved up a class. So the next E Coupé will be much more luxurious.

is the up level c450 engine available on this?
+Luke Hoisington its called the c43 amg now.
Oh wow damn Mercedes for changing it after only 1 year lol
But in reality it won't look that good because most of them will have cheap wheels and halogen headlights..
MC Stradale is looking better, less than $100k after 2yrs still has 2yr warranty add another 2yrs $2500, high residual value vs M3, M5. Alfa is the other one but just comes with stick
now we wait for a c63 amg black series.
+Troy Strain
I agree completely.
0:09 Yeah I say coupé, not coop.
If you want a sexy, coke-bottle shape, just get a Mustang or Camaro, for half the price with more powerful 4 cyl turbos. Or save over $10,000 by getting the fully loaded V8s.
+Dimitri ...in terms of reliability they're ok, but they look and drive very well.
***** Consumer Reports 2015 reliability survey ranked Mercedes-Benz 21 out of 28 car brands. In 2014, it ranked 24. The C-Class has below average reliability, and is the least reliable model in the MB lineup.
Tell that to the automotive journalists. They even prefer the Camaro SS over the BMW M4.
I agree it's a better daily driver with passengers. Superior, overpriced money pit, with plastic water pumps. If it's so irrelevant, then why do customers "keep score", brag, or exercise classism? Notice, no one has bothered defending this C-Class coupe, since it's a platform based on MB's biggest money pit.
It´s a good looking Mercedes, not a MB fan here, but can not say that I would not understand persons who would buy one of these.
I hate the Eco start stop... It's annoying as hell. The car turns off automatically anytime you stop. It feels like you're driving a clunker.
gameblessed well turn it off.
really liking Mercedes new vehicles
Love the front....not loving the rear....
The rear bumper stops are hedious! Why? Yes' we heard US safety laws for 5mph bumper.... Really? What an out-dated law. If I get one, it's coming off.
They're just pieces of plastic that you can have removed. Yes a very out dated law.
3:14 the thing that is around the license plate is making more ugly rear. I believe that is not on the EU version cars.
At 1:56 you put 30 mph instead of 30 mpg. lol
from a side profile it looks like a Honda accord 2016 coupe ...
where's Nathan
i'll keep my 2014 Chrysler JVL 300C AWD 5.7 hemi . the amg might be more my speed . WHERES NATHAN ?
I thought it was The Hoff!
stupid specks of dots on the grill... tacky rearlights..... Rest is fine... Prefer the sedan.
The rear at first glance reminds me of the Beetle or some sort of porsche. Could be because of the hatchback look...
I like it but i like the cla style better
That rear end is fugly. MB really have sold out to the volume sales. Such a shame they no longer build high quality cars. But I suppose they would have gone bust if they carried on with that philosophy.
that much money for that little power lol.
Looks too much like an Accord coupe from the side..
ikr
Lol agreed
I'm guessing the 228i is more fun.
+Jeff K 428i?
