Hey! Yes, I recently purchased a 2013,C250 sedan and I’m trying to honestly gather as much information on it as possible, I must say what a smooth and responsive driving vehicle
Shopping for a c350, crazy they cost the same as a Honda civic for the same year. Yes, understand I may be looking at an average of 1k repair a year not including maintenance. That’s the problem looking for a nice c class, most peopled delayed repairs or if done by the backyard mechanic using Duralast parts.😢
I wish more people thought like you. Right away people have the balls to say their Hyundai is better than MBZ, Audi and BMW just because their Hyundai is chocked full of tech one might not really use and those things don't really make the car better. I'd take a base Benz like this simply because of the solidity, safety, stellar ride and handling and refinement. Sure it will cost me a bit more in the long run but it'll be a nice ride for a very long time.
Man, I have a C-class Mercedes for 8 years. I haven't changed anything and the car is perfect like the first day it came out of the factory. I don't know how more reliable a lexus or acura can be.
Well lets see, just purchased a 2013 C250 Sport. Ride is great and on the stiff side wonderful handling. Between the turbo and the 7 speed trans the power is effortless. Acceleration is very nice and so quick. Still have not used the Sport mode, haven't needed it. Steering is quick and nimble. Turn signal stalk is exactly where it should be. Love this car and it is going to the window tint guy soon.
I literally this week, picked up a 2014 E300 4Matic Sport Sedan, ( fully loaded ) and I swear, the entire is so refined and high-end, it's like this face-lifted W204 C-Class is a shrunken E Class inside. I love BMW's too, and my G37x was more fun on the road than a basket full of Dalmations on Mtn Dew ( lol ) but Mercedes REALLY knocked it out of the park in value for this Model. I'll be honest enough as a Car Guy to say the 3 Series and G is a bit more involving, but the Quality, solidity of the chassis, and interior refinement of the Benz make up for that small deficit. Take care guys! :)
Muhammad Harris Ejaz I don’t think so American cars are bad but not as bad as the German cars 🤣 I mean my uncle has 4 f150 2001 and still running like new he stilll take them to Mexico fully loaded and never break on him my dad had a expedition not a single issue either 🤷🏻♂️ I never own a Mercedes but I did own a bmw that make me never buy one ever again
I love my C250 Coupe, after 2 Audis and 1 BMW I can say MB is the best interior, best command center and Stereo system with the Harman Kardon. Audi is the best on curves and BMW is the best on engine power and has more interior and trunk space. For my daily drive the C250 is great, fuel efficient and fast on mid range speed and thats what you need driving to the office and back home! Awesome AMG seats standard for all coupes!
The last time I drove a C300 was back in 2010 and I recall not being too impressed with it. I found the engine to be somewhat ordinary and it felt dated. The updates Mercedes made to this 2012 model make the car feel fresh again and I much preferred this C250 with its smaller 1.8L turbo engine.
Beginning with the 2012 model year nav was standard on all C classes. No leather stitching because it's MB-Tex (vinyl) interior. Leather is one of those many options that this car has.
love, love this car. I feel so connected and open the sunroof vroom.. I hate the fact it has low ground clearance and the majority of C250s i've seen on the road have damage airdams. 20,000 miles still going strong and turbooo.
I mostly see damaged air dams only in Miami. Funny, everyone else has figured out how to use the neat little camera in the dash and they back their cars in.
any trouble with command center ?? My radio does not work - no volume. Checked reset, fuses. Still nada. Hearing fiberoptics and expensive repair. Anyone, anyone ????
2012 AMG PKG, ONLY thing I take issues is, there are HUGE BLINDSPOTS when backing up and the rear cameras seem distorted to distances. But other than that- 34-37mpg in eco, I love it. -2024
I like the redesign of the interior of the 2012-13 models. The interior of the previous models got many complaints of being too cheap looking. I would love to have a C350 with a back exterior and beige interior with the sport package.
I think its a great idea to keep the indicator stalk lower. It should be much more comfortable while on the highway. It allows you to change lanes and toggle the high beams while resting your left arm on the arm rest completely. There was a moment when driving on the highway for hours this week in my Mazda when I thought how practical it would be to have the indicator stalk slightly lower down. Any thoughts?
I have a 2015 C250 Coupe..good mpg, fun to drive, good braking and steering and it has been very reliable. The Turbo four makes a good amount of flat power in a wide band of RPM.
Sofyan, Would you trade a 2010 C300 4matic Luxury for this one, a 2012 C250 Sport? Do you believe the C250 has a better engine than the C300 or should I rather go for the bigger engine? Value your professional opinion on this one. Thanks a million.
I am seriously considering replacing my Infiniti with a C350 or a CLA. We will have to see. But I absolutely LOVE driving all the new Mercedes cars. Just solid, and smooth.
I brought this car on a impulse buy 2 years later this car has grown on me now it's a 2013 sport model. Pickup passing power love it. And rides so smooth and quiet. It's more of my weekend car or road trip ride for me. Since I did buy Pre owned came with backup camera and navigation. If I ever get rid of this car Mazda 6 2016 I would think about a swapout. I like simple dashes not so busy and this car has that feel to it and look inside. One gripe would be bigger backseat which I never gonna be back there. I always feel I am driving on clouds.
I think he's referring to US models. When the 2014 CLA comes out, the CLA will be the cheapest way to get to Mercedes. The C 250 starts at $35,000 while the CLA will start at $29,000.
Well you do make a good point there. Certain German cars should be better in the reliability category but I honestly think (and this is in my personal experience) that German cars aren't as unreliable as many say and Japanese cars aren't as reliable as many claim especially the ones made after 2000 when cost cutting became prevalent.
I used to like it when you held the camera POV. It's too static now and we don't get as good a view of everything you describe! Nice reviews keep it up.
Glad I got the Coupe. I got mine in May used 2nd hand, the interior in the coupe is even better. I got leather stitched bucket seats that look 1000x better than the 4 door, the inside doors look way better, the backseat looks amazing, and it has paddle shifters, that this 4 door doesn't seem to have. Now planning the turbo upgrade to push it to 350HP. Oh and the only thing that is probably a bad thing about the Coupe or all coupes in general, is the rear visibility. I always had a 4 door so I had to get adjusted to the limited visibility. But it makes up for it.
Totally agree on upgraded interior. I myself am looking for a 2 door used between 2012 and 2014. Less than 60,000 miles. One owner. I’ll find one. Just be patient. I want to keep my 2012 sport 4 door model. Just too happy with it.
Thanks for the well wishes. The car is unique in that there aren't many out there. The poor resale value doesn't bother me as it is not my intent to resell the car. I am aware of the increased risk in issues with finding parts if/when something breaks but I have not had problems with my 9-3 so I'm willing to take the risk.
if you take care of the car the C250SL Mercedes Benz 4 door sedan with the w204 four cylinder turbocharged ingain you won't have any problems with it ,I take care of mine and bought it in 2012 and it's perfectly Fine to this Day .jjm in Montgomery Alabama Sent
Actually the body style was released halfway through 2007. I remember it was February and I stopped by the MB dealership to see a load of these sexy looking cars(looked better than any other 2007 rival) and that I wanted one when I got older. Well, now the 3-series and A4 have gotten better. Just have to wait for MB to completely redesign the C-class again. Great video! :)
I have bought a c250 cdi amg sports + model and it's looks great inside out and drive's superb you can feel the power although it's a 2.2 engine but it's great.
The earlier face lifted C Class models have their indicator stalk there like it is shown in the video, but the later face lifted models have their indicator stalk where the cruise control of the earlier face lifted models
It seems as if owners of German cars have mixed reviews concerning reliability. The majority of W204 owners love the reliability of the car especially when compared to the W203. As for the higher up models some people say meh some say it was fantastic.
I thought i needed a rear camera at first but i learned to park without it. Push button is nice to have and i'd rather have it but it's not that much of a big deal than having a key start the car. Heated seats, i never even use. It doesn't heat the seats that well, you can't even tell the difference unless maybe if you drive in the nude.
If you are purchasing a Mercedes, you are better be willing to pay. The prestige and build quality is what you're paying for here, not fancy toys. If you want good value, get a Hyundai or Honda. I want to note though, a C300 comes considerably better equipped for 4~5 grand more (also adds 4matic AWD). Could be worth some consideration if you can afford it or drive in snowy parts.
With the 2013 3 Series, BMW recently made the sunroof an option on lesser trim 3 Series and the 1 Series I believe always had it as an option. Cadillac also goes the way of making you pay extra for a sunroof on the ATS and only makes it standard on the highest trim of the CTS. The others (Mercedes included) all have a sunroof as standard. If I had the money I think I'd take an Audi A4 Quattro 6 speed with the Premium Plus package.
please review and test drive the new 328i sport line! it is definately my dream car right now haha. affordable, powerful, practical, fun, AND efficient.
I just test-drove a couple of diesel variants of this w204 model ( here in the UK, where 80% of the cars from this era are diesels. Coming from a Lexus is250 -I really liked the steering and the handling of the C-class, the comfort and the overall posture on the road that it possess. But i just could not put up with the diesel rattling, especially on idling and on low speeds, constant rattling and reverberation and vibration. Even thought the low lev power and acceleration ( especially on the 6 cylinder diesel) - is tremendous and mind blowing. But it is really a pity that here in the UK the biggest petrol engine this face lifted version if the C-class has been offered - was the 1.6 liter 153hp engine...such a shame
I have an 01' CL 600, and I know what you mean about the long hood and wide feel of Mercedes-Benz vehicles the steering is a bit devoid of feel but it goes very precise through corners and it gets awful fuel economy but the power is fairly good
i had a vw Passat cc sport prior to getting the c250 cdi amg and the vw was way better. Just as fast, way better handing, way better looking, both back seats fold down or split fold. Cabin trim in the merc is more plasticky. Lag is terrible on the merc - great theres a 'kickdown' gimmick but it takes I reckon 2 seconds till something happens. I got the merc as a company car as they were going way cheaper than the vws but next time im going back to the vw as it was more luxurious imo.
One of the biggest reasons I didn't buy an Audi/BMW/Mercedes is because they charge out the wazoo for everything. Bought a VW $10k less with comparable features to a $42k Audi. Same 2.0T engine.
I've had mine for FOUR Years Now and it's STILL Under warranty, THE MERCEDES Benz Warranty ,not that BULLSHIT pay extra extended Warranty. jjm in Montgomery Alabama Sent
This thing is so weak compared to some other offerings that are way cheaper. If you're looking at this, get the GLI and save the $15k+. If you want MB look at the C300 or higher. Ditto on the CLA 250.
My 2002 Mercedes E320 seats don't fold down and that turn signal thing is the same way. I expected Mercedes to "fix" these minuscule areas for newer models. Other then that Mercedes makes a pretty solid car or should I say "tank" lol
Is anyone watching this in 2024?

Oh! Mine is fully loaded, with heated seat, sun roof all the bells and whistles. Pre owned. Love it!
Commonly referred to as options. If you want heated seats I recommend letting them know, they will add it in for a small fee.

One of the biggest reasons I didn't buy an Audi/BMW/Mercedes is because they charge out the wazoo for everything. Bought a VW $10k less with comparable features to a $42k Audi. Same 2.0T engine.
whenevr you drove a MB, or BMW for a while you wont be liking to drive any other car. vw are good but nothing compare to them.
When you do your test drive reviews can you turn on your headlights when you drive i like to pay attention to the Gage cluster. Thanks!
The back seats do fold down. Pull the respective pull lever in the trunk (near top). The Germans didn’t make you pay extra for that option.
Had one....it actually was an option
I've had mine for FOUR Years Now and it's STILL Under warranty, THE MERCEDES Benz Warranty ,not that BULLSHIT pay extra extended Warranty. jjm in Montgomery Alabama Sent
My dream car.......
The E class has better features then C class.
con fuciuss
"then C-Class......" what? finish your sentence.
than
madearisp really? I wouldn't have guessed.
not much of a dream lol
The sport version is AVANTGARDE, and the luxury version is ELEGANCE. There is also a classic version.
I really like these cars! :D
Very insightful
My C class, 2012 comes with sat nav, but is not activated, I dont know why I still bought it.🤦♀️
Need heat sits n back up cameras n also how much it's going to cost me for dis Mercedes Benz C250
This thing is so weak compared to some other offerings that are way cheaper. If you're looking at this, get the GLI and save the $15k+. If you want MB look at the C300 or higher. Ditto on the CLA 250.
First of all u don’t have the turbo charge engine the turbo has two exhausts u have the base model 250 which is pretty strong on its own tbh
Thought the B Class was the cheapest.
What do you mean with “1.8L and only 201HP” ???? Only 201??? How much do you want for 1.8L??? What other car has more???
My 2002 Mercedes E320 seats don't fold down and that turn signal thing is the same way. I expected Mercedes to "fix" these minuscule areas for newer models. Other then that Mercedes makes a pretty solid car or should I say "tank" lol
