The new C is very handsome inside and out. The quality of materials used on the interior simply put, blows anything BMW has out of the water. Makes the 3 series feel like a Toyota interior. Very nice job by Mercedes.
I have been looking for a 4 door lately and something with a bit more room ideally.

Ive driven a 550i xdrive, cla45 amg, the c300 and c400. All three of the mercs were better to drive than the BMW...the cla wasnt as nice as the 550 inside but the new C class made the 550 seem extremely cheap. The c400 was absolutely a blast to drive, and while the transmission wasnt quite as good as DCT, it was still great overall. Overall, the new C has a pressence that is just simply sporty and refined. Much better than any 3 series and the c400 was nicer than the m3/4 inside quality wise which says a lot considering this was a sub 60K car thats nicer inside than an 80K car.
By and large, Mercedes has been hitting home runs while BMW seems to be making extremely boring cars.

Yummy. The rear end shot is the best.

The air suspension really adds to the comfort level of the car. The steering was direct and I got feedback. Felt good!

Really? Not what I experienced. Not much information going through the steering wheel and the road, also the steering react slow when you make quick moves to the left and to the right. Not that BMW are much better LOL.
If you want a car with good steering feedback, go and drive a Fiesta ST.
