C63 will start at 63000USD, add 9g for performance package, it is HOT. I saw a c350 on the road a couple weeks ago and they look great. I never really liked the c class outside of AMG until now. Nice looking car. :thumbsup:

Looks nice, now they just need to add some power ;)

is that the CTS or the CTS-V... because those numbers are a lot lower than what i was expecting.

The CTS. CTS-V is much faster (close to 1 second quicker in 0-60).

With reference to the C350, I'll take a better car over 32 HP difference anyday...

C63 is going to be enough power though....squashing E92 M3's is going to be fun!

MB is going for "value" in the C class. A fully loaded C350 with 4matic is under $55K cdn. That what a stripped 335xi would cost.

I've been reading up on th C350. It loses every test against 335i but it is more comfortable and civil. I'll probably drop down to MB to check it out. But really wished MB at least tune it for 300HP which seems to be the requirement for top end entry level. And I really wish they add a manual setting for the shocks.

It must be the weight. The same engine and transmission can run 5.6 on a SLK.

I test drove a C350 a few weeks ago.
Very nice car, not very fast though. C63's the one to go for if you've got the dough.

test drove it a few weeks ago, decent power, and looks beautiful inside and out. But they are sold out for several months.
