I drove an older '94 C-class, back when I was in high school, and I don't argue with Jake whatsoever when he talks about how solid those doors are. These older Benz sedans were top of the line cars, back in the day, and you still see a few of them on the road even these days!
Dude, im boutta get this car. Has it given you any problems?? gonna get it at 65k miles but with lifetime warranty on engine and transmission. Only 13k. All black everything. Sound like a good deal?
brandon dorris Yeah, i heard about that, but i never got the problem. I had my c230 over a year and the only problem i got was a Faulty Sensor. Got that replaced with my warranty. I totaled it 2 weeks ago though R.I.P... I'm getting a e350 now. Know anything about E Classes?
According to this video the automatic transmission C mode is Confort and S mode is Sport, but in the manual of the can you can read that the S mode is not a sport mode it is a standard mode. In S mode the car starts from the first gear and in C mode the car starts from the second gear. If a car has an anti roll back it is deactivated when you are in (S) standard mode.
man i'm in love with this car.... and currently eye'ing the same exact model and color minus the sunroof and that little sun visor in the rear window that goes up. Great review man!
Very quick but informative review. I like the pace.You don't whine on and on to make the video extra long. Please do a review on the 2005 Infiniti G35 Coupe 6MT/5AT, 2005 BMW E46 330i ZHP, 2004 Volkswagen R32 and tag me in it so i know when they're uploaded.
I know, I know Jakeman21642, but I'm a subscriber, please try just try to make me happy. I want to buy one of those cars and the forums are not as direct as some of these videos that why I'm asking for you to put in some extra effort for me. Thank you.
+Lanre Oladejo. An E46 with the ZHP option is getting very hard to find in my area (Tulsa, OK). I looked at a beautiful silver ZHP sedan with new BBS wheels, hesitated, and it was sold the next day. The ZHP optioned E46 is the closest one may come to owning an E46 M3. I absolutely loved the way it drove and handled and the ZHP body additions look great. I also like the "cube" carbon fiber type interior trim. Finding one in good shape with the manual 6-speed is almost impossible here where I currently reside.
They are a good car. Be sure to get one built after April 2004. It has upgraded Dash and engine (most importantly) Very reliable if looked after, inexpensive to run and easy to repair with knowledge, although buying all the tools could send you broke. Look for oil leaks at the Cam Shaft sensors (just lift off the front Engine Cover, (if it still has one, as most break over time), as there was an issue with that oil dripping down to the ECU and killing it. Get a transmission service done, unless they have done one in past 15000 miles, and you will have enjoyable, smooth driving, with a little bit of kick from the Kompressor.
I really like my 2007 C230. I did not know about the locking gas cap, cool. Yes, there are some engine models that you should avoid due to the gear issue but it is not all engines. A quick VIN lookup will let you know. S is for Sport or Standard and C is for Comfort. I always run in S. C mode starts out in a higher gear and I use if for slick surfaces like rain or snow. Mine has a seven speed transmission that is to die for. The phone controls are useless; I dare anyone to hook a modern phone up. The car is whisper quiet only broken by the 6 CD changer in my model. I really liked the review.
not if you cant afford the Maintenance. good cars but i have the c280 3.0 4 matic and maintenance is involved with fluid changes on regular basis. diff fluid, tranny fluid etc not cheap unless you do yourself. but solid car
Wheres the AUX input? and can it run music on bluetooth? When I test drived it, it seemed to not go straight away as I put my leg of the breaks, is that normal?
slightly? was the handbreak on? mine does not do that but it is a heavier car. there is no AUX but you can buy an AM/FM transmitter and it will work like a charm.
So I just noticed, the air vent (over the battery to the left) doesn't have the filter nor filter holder. So you're taking the air directly from outside without filtering. The red button shouldn't hold the hood or release it. That button is for extending the hood to a 90 degree angle so you can work on the engine or anything on the engine more easily. After owning one for a year I can definitely tell you tho, it's the most comfortable, great sounding with excellent stereo and best ride comfort I've had. Love it. But I do agree. The steering is ugly. Makes me think of Sid in ice age. XD
I have the C280 07 and an 03 C240 before that. I love my Benzes, I just wish it was built better. Trim pieces are falling off and I'm not happy. I heard the E class fares better.
I have the same car, I just bought it. But mine has a Mercedes CD changer in the glove box plus the one in the dash! I love how it has the AMG exhaust and the cross drilled rotors. The spoiler is perfect size not to big not to small. And I didn't know the calipers are Brembo's but they are as well. Car goes all right for 201 H.P. but when I put the dual K%N's that should wake it up a little. I do love the looks and all the stuff inside!
David Margolis I'm happy for you hope you enjoy it! I like those a lot as well! I think I might get the grille with the three fins and big Mercedes emblem in the middle. But don't know if I'm going to get the flat hood emblem? Kinda like the one that's on there but will probably look stupid with the roundel sticking up and having a big one in the center of the grille too. Well good luck and keep it under a 100 if you can. I went to the doctors today and I had to go on the highway. I got up to 130 MPH like nothing and it was like I was going 30 MPH smooth as glass. Let me know if you do anything to yours keep in touch!
After 70k miles it's nothing but problems I have the same car Problems I've had where Starter like 400$ I believe Speed censor b (1600$) at Mercedes. Thermostat & something with some intake sensors 900$ And coil packs (cyl 5 for me) 450$
Irvis Garcia Go to ECS Tunning and buy the parts yourself and put them on and it won't cost you shit. Your getting rapped cause your having the Dealer do your work. There ain't nothing on that car that I can't fix unless the transmission goes or the actual Motor and even then If I really wanted I could but I don't have lifts and the right tools for shit like that!
my friend just bought one of these and his glove box has a JVC 6 disk player in it with mercs logo on it so it must just be a package add on his is the 07 Merc c230 sport and it's very bright red
B_StangF150 yes I have one with the CD changer, it also came with fully electronic climate control, a 10 way adjustable power seat with memory settings, and leather seats, not MB tex which most were imported with. Now in 2018 It has 34,300 miles, I got it 6 months old, with 4,000 miles, it was a Mercedes loaner car in a posh little area of Denver. It has been a joy in every way. I recommend it as a first car.
Umm Bluetooth was not available in 2007. As I own this car the 2007 c230 does not have bluetooth, or a auxiliary input, however it is an amazing vehicle. I've owned several cars and the C230 AMG is solid.
I see a lot of those cars with the Sport Package where I live. Those engines have a major engine defect and the balance shaft gear is faulty. RUN, don't walk, away from that car!!
+Jeff Johnson just had to replace my balance shaft $5200 with mercedes covering partial came out to 2750. which is b.s. they shoulda covered it all but i had 100k mi so now she runs like the first day i got her
Sorry to hear that Brandon. I blew a head gasket on my 2006 BMW 325i. That car has had numerous, expensive problems and I kept up with the maintenance. It just has so many cheap plastic parts and crappy gaskets from the factory. I know, I know, It's just part of owning an E90. Dayum!
Like black. That's it. Can't see why not to by mb c230.. Don't know compessor or sport. I think com has better engine and sport has better looks. Didn't drive it, so I don't know for real which is better.

I owned one for five years, saved my life when someone ran a red light. Loads of miles, love the car forever. We're in an E class now.
Did u ever have problems I'm looking at one right now with 136 k miles it looks really nice for 4500 u think it's worth it?
@@LOS-ry1ly if its been maintained correctly yes it is worth it
own a 2007 C230 sport 7 speed has 205,000 miles, running strong very reliable car, it's all in the maintenance!

Standard was 5 Speed, optional 7 speed.
