C-Class W204 Official: 2011 C-class (W204 facelift)

[K-A]

It's M-B pandering to the dated Rice-Rocket aesthetic craze of he early 2000's.

Totally. Or do they want to prepare us for the 2035 S?

One Million C-Class from Bremen

The one millionth made in Bremen current C-Class, a C350 CDI Diesel Wagon in polar white, passed final assembly. Plant chief Andreas Kellermann presented the keys to the customer from Bavaria right in the production hall.

The C-Class family includes the sedan, the coupe, the wagon and the GLK SUV, which are all manufactured on the same line in Bremen. Andreas Kellermann stated the experience with the current generation yields valuable insights to prepare for the next generation of the C-Class, which will also include a cabrio.

^ The Bremen plant reached one million. The overall number including Sindelfingen, East London and Beijing should be higher.
Thanks for pointing it out. Changed the text above.

Wolf, is that the GLK without the LED and stuff? It looks weird, but no worse...

 

[Wolfgang]

Yes, with halogens.

Well, Well! Look at this. Mercedes-Benz C-class sales continue to beat the new 3-series in the US.

It looks like C outsold the 3er by over 2,300 units last month. Kinda telling of the BMW 3er that a car in its last throes is outselling it.

The new 3 looks like it has an inflatable front end. Not sure how they thought that bloated look would work for the 3.

I saw the 4 series coupe concept at NAIAS a few weeks back and the car looked very attractive. However, the same look doesn't translate well to the sedan. Looks aside, I'm surprised to see their bread-and-butter car doing so poorly against an MB product that, although refreshed, is 6 years old!

Just goes to prove that the 3er has softened up and lost it's 'enthusiast' market. The MB offers more of a connected feel then the new 3 does. It's also not as ugly.

Manic is a nice word for it.

As per tradition..
this is a mini S class..

Looks real neat..but im a bit worried about the soft shape of the headlights.. other than that it looks spot on from what can be seen so far

PS
It should be posted in the W205 thread though

Not really was just when I was at the dealership they had a c200 for 405 thousand brand new and I paid 390 for my A..
and after driving the facelift C I was amazed how since 2007 launch how MB have made a good car great,But when I sell in a year the A will give me a better return..What I mean was the C is superb and paying same price as a A
