After the Mercedes dealer visit of cawimmer and The Artist, I went to our dealer today. :D

I really like the exterior design of the new C-Class, but I was extremely disappointed by the interior quality. Also the version with leather feels cheap and doesn't conform to Mercedes standard.
I also dislike the steering wheels - it's to big, in my opinion.


The quality of my pictures isn't that good - I forget to photograph with flash. :(


Elegance










Avantgarde with AMG Sportpackage










Classic (with 18' rims)




...and because Mercedes doesn't build only the C-Class some other Mercedes Benz' :D


G 500






S 63 AMG (this is the best looking S-Class I've ever seen...Desgino Maritiusblue :bowdown:)








AMG's together :eusa_danc








CL 63 AMG (no close up view - sorry:t-hands:) :bowdown:




CLS Desgino (Why I wouldn't go for 'porcelain' coloured leather seats...)






4matic models

 
I can't believe it, My dad was offered to testdrive the new C-class and he said No. I told him *** man, take me with you and we drive the damn thing together but still he refused.
I hate my dad :t-banghea :D

nice report Ms Ree ;)

I can't believe it!! Why doesn't your dad want to drive the new C-Class? :eusa_thin
 
wow damn thats a good show room..
love that blue S63 do you have more pics??
and how was the interior..was it also designo?

ohh and that CL63 looks so hot.. looks designo grey..hehe

PS
Did you get to drive the C?
 
Sadly, the blue S 63 was locked...but the interior is designo leather. Through the windows it looks like "normal" anthracite leather - but the information on the car said "exclusive grafit". :t-hands: I don't take more pictures of that car...I hope the dealer will reorganize the places of the cars so that the S 63 will get another place, where I can take better shots.

The showroom of this dealer is always extremely well equipped - remind the SLK Black Series, the CLK DTM or the CL "Launch Edition" I photographed at last!
I also hope that our dealer will get an AMG that isn't coloured in designo graphit - because so is the SL and the E. :t-hands:

At the moment I don't plan to testdrive the C-Class...
 
Thanks heaps for the photos mate, i didn't know you can order the S63 in long wheelbase version. The colour of it is definitely very interesting, but i think the car needs bigger wheels to match the colour.

So what is so disappointing with the new C-class interior?
 
The materials of the dashboard is comparable to the one, the SLK has. But the haptic is extremely bad - it isn't really plastic but it also doesn't feel to me like a high quality material.
Also the centre console is dominated by plastic. It feels better then the dashboard, but it isn't great, too.

I would really like to have some more aluminium details, like the instrument panel.

I was also shocked by the price of the new C-Class. There was a C280 that costs around 52.000 € (and it wasn't fully loaded) - you can also get an E280 for that price!

The build quality isn't in contrast to that bad at all, but I went to the dealer with a certain expectation... :t-hands:

Nevertheless there is something positive to mention. The exterior looks very good and I was really impressed by the integration of the new "multimedia system". :eusa_clap
 
ree, I'm saddened to hear that you're disappointed with the interior quality... I hope it isn't very bad, I'm crossing my fingers when I see it coming into Singapore soon. The interior's the very thing that has been bugging me about the new C.

Thanks for the pics anyway. :usa7uh:
