Get realistic, this a damn Benz and it's still the C-Class, their entry level car.
I'd understand if this was a Nissan or a Honda, then you have some gripes.
Torque is pretty good on it though, that is more than enough for hauling your %#! anywhere.

I can see where people are coming from though.  I've had a new C300 as a loaner and also driven the new Honda Accord coupe(fully loaded) plenty of times and can't say that the C300 interior is any better than the Honda.

Seriously.  It fits a niche that they needed to fill but it isn't that great.  E coupe>>this (just comparing looks)

I just hope they don't make an S-Coupe or CLS-Coupe

everyone knew for years the CLK was the E-coupe, though.

Why are they calling the model with the 1.8L engine the C250? It should be the C180...

The C63 sounds interesting though.

they always kept the classes/sizes distinguished - they have too many models if you ask me

this is the C coupe which will be sporty and small...the e is more luxurious and bigger/midrange....the cl/sl  are the big boys -

are the still making SLKs? i never understood where those fit in

im a former mercedes owner so im in the know.
but what im saying is, this C coupe isnt that much smaller than the E coupe and the E isnt that much smaller than a CL.

thats too many coupes.

they shoulda deaded the E coupe and made the C the flagship mid-range coupe.

and the SLK is the roadster. more for speed.

im not 100%, but i think the SLK 55 was their fastest car on the low. cause it had the same engine as the SL in a car 500lb lighter.

also the CLK was not the "E coupe" due to it being made off the C class chassis. it was basically a C with 2 door.

Really? I've sat in both also and never really got the same luxury feel on the Accord that I did on the Benz. Keep in mind the coupe will most likely be lighter and better to handle. It's also more than just the interior though, Benz has a lot more and the cost of luxury is just that, costly. Plus the Accord is still a FWD and the Benz is a RWD so there are still a few difference in there that makes the Benz better.
