The first thing i liked about this car when I first drove it was how smooth the ride quality is. It has a luxury sport feel. The Sport version has staggered wheels that gives it an aggressive sporty look which I like a lot. Comes with the sporty looking body kit... The only think I really didn't like about this car is the cost of parts.. It can get pretty expensive quick if something goes bad.. Parts are expensive for this thing. But if you can afford it and it doesn't bother you then GO FOR IT! It is a very nice ride..Jan 12, 2015

When I bought this car I was debating on this, a M3, a 335i or a corvette. I wanted a car the drive out of shear pleasure and enjoyment, not to be a primary driver. The M3 was nice, nimble and powerful, but I felt a little crammed and after a while of riding around the stiffer suspension was just not ideal. The corvette well it's a corvette so it was everything I wanted in a car, loud fast and sexy, but I was still bitter towards american cars after my falling out with my previous Chevy and faulty electronics. Then in came the C350, my dad had one and I always just enjoyed driving the car. smooth power and acceleration, the ride was amazing I can drive the car for hours and be satisfied.The 335i I just did not find as attractive and the Mercedes and after reviews on reliability I stuck with the Benz. It was still a four door and in the end proved to be the most versatile vehicle for what I wanted. It was fast but not the fastest, it drove like a dream and I still had space for my buddies and golf clubs.Mar 07, 2014
