FAQs: 1. She pays for the car herself. 2. She didn't get the lighting package because it was a former service loaner vehicle so she wasn't able to pick options. 3. She leases the car because a low-mileage lease works for her situation of frequent but low mileage driving.
Thank God she Leases because it will soon be an endless money PIT as Scotty Kilmer would say. Leasing any German car is the best Idea unless you have millions.
I'm sure this comment section will be filled with plenty of appropriate, constructive comments about your wife and this video... Seriously, though, not a bad job for her first review! She certainly shares your enthusiastic reviewing style.
Matt gets off to aggressive bolstering for sure. It's a major turn off for him when the seat doesn't quite hold him in place as he turns down a backroad.
This was fun. My wife and I enjoyed watching this video together. We could not stop smiling the entire time. She says you two are such a cute couple. You are meant for each other. I concur. I always enjoy seeing the 'other/better half' making an appearance on occasion. Behind every good man is an even greater woman. Keep up the good work my friends.
I have C Class also, same year; beautiful western pennsylvania scenery. Mercedes Benz must love this video because the car is featured nicely by a wonderfully inspiring couple.
"lets turn on this back road here" matts face is priceless, i think he almost busted a nut without her even touching him, a woman after his own heart, you know when your woman / wife spends time doing the things that you love and makes fun of you in the nicest way while she is doing it, shows she knows u well.
I bought a used 2015 bassicly fully loaded with 18k miles . One thing I would say is get the led lights . They are amazing ! Especially with the auto brights . I drive at night almost every morning for work and they are awesome for spotting deer . I live in MN lol. Overall amazing car . Oh and it’s just the rear wheel drive model , put snow tires on and it works perfectly in horrible MN winter
Late to this video, but the 2016 C300 is awesome. It's such a nimble saloon. I'm sure she upgraded to an SUV, but c300 is one of the best cars I've ever owned for the value.
This video was awesome! Beth definitely shares your enthusiasm and sense of humor lol. You guys are an adorable couple, and hopefully we get to see you guys together in more videos! Keep up the good stuff Matt!
We don't take time to see it when you do your car reviews as usual, but when you see someone make her first review, you see that Matt is experienced and know its stuff weel and havent started yesterday. Good job Matt and your wife too, great channel
Matt- what a keeper she is! Smart & witty, cute, and bubbly too.. Don't listen to the ridiculous armchair haters- for YEARS my folks bought both BMWs and Mercedes that came off lease, and those cars were always a great deal, well taken care of, and reliable. The former loaners are good deals too- both are good ways to get extensive discounts on dealer maintained/known excellent service record vehicles.
Nobody is going to read this long-winded subjective review of mine because they're all so fixated on Matt's wife. She seems like a very nice person. Anyway, here's some other stuff you should know about this car from a random, unimportant, negative Nancy RUclips commenter: The driver's seat is not centered with the steering wheel. If you haven't sat in one of these things before, you'll see that the steering wheel is slightly to your right. You might notice this at 2:48. Kinda irritating. The windows tend to rattle in the 2015 model I've been driving. The 4 wheel drive model can really rocket you forward but the transmission is a bit jerky at low speeds and there's a lack of refinement from a stop. I found this to be the case because I did entirely urban driving in this thing. Also if you have the standard, unadjustable suspension, you're in for a surprisingly bumpy ride if you're driving in a place with bad roads like Los Angeles. Biggest complaint is the infotainment system. It is frustratingly laggy and slow to respond to inputs from the center console dial. You can see how choppy it is at 4:40. Unacceptable for a Mercedes-Benz. This would be somewhat forgivable if it had a touchscreen because touch screens tend to lag at least a little bit. But this isn't a touch screen. There are just way too many laggy and choppy animations when you're going from one menu item to another. You'll find that you often accidentally overshoot the radio station you want to go to if you're using the dial. The handling is surprisingly dull on this thing. This obviously contrasts with the opinions of the reviewers in the video. There's this weird resistance when you start to turn the steering wheel while driving that lets off after turning it about 30 degrees in either direction. After that it lightens up. I guess it's some kind of attempt at making the car feel sportier than it is, but it doesn't really work and it just ends up feeling strange. It goes from feeling deliberately under-assisted to feeling way over-assisted in an instant. I will admit that this is a good looking car. If that's what matters to you, go for it. But if you want a better driving experience and a more responsive and intuitive infotainment system, you're better off with a BMW 3 series or an Audi A4 in this car segment. BMW iDrive and Audi MMI are miles beyond Mercedes-Benz COMAND. I'm sure things get much nicer when you bump up to the E class.
Aphexis so that they can continue to nickel and dime their customers to upcharge for the better lights. All Audi’s now come standard with HID lights. Mercedes should follow.
Awesome video Matt. I hope you do more videos like this with your wife. The dynamic is hilarious. I think she would be a great addition in terms of a non-auto enthusiast perspective.
To be honest I usually watch your reviews up to the acceleration part, after watching your acceleration reaction I give the video a thumbs up and just quit it But I watched this review to the last second....you guys are the cutest couple I've seen in my whole life!
Great job Beth! We'll look forward to seeing more of you in the future, but I had to laugh in the beginning you are sitting behind the wheel and then it immediately switches to a closeup of the wheel and we see hairy legs.... 😂
Matt your Fired, Let her take over the channel and hit 1mil subs, My wife was in my last video making fun of me on my outro. The Pull, No Reaction...lol we all know who the screamer is now.
Well done, a funny video. I appreciate them being able to not be so serious about everything. Clearly some lighthearted poking at her husband's mannerisms. Was a nice touch.
Awesome video!!! I love how she reviewed in your "style" and had me laughing on her reaction(or lack there of) when doing an acceleration! You guys are awesome, well done 👍
This is so great Matt! She did a great job and I for one think she should do some in the future! You guys could divide and conquer and put 1.5x-2x the content 👍🏻 Kudos from KY sir! 🇺🇸🥃
This was so funny especially when she teased Matt. Very sweet! It was also interesting seeing the difference between things a car enthusiast and a more typical driver say about a car. Something we car geeks need to remember :)
Thanks "Mo Lo", if there is one thing you obviously know about is good naming. Maybe you can change your name to Asshat to better represent yourself lol
Lol , I don't know why are you pissed off , there was no offense in what i said to Matt , Dont get offended easily by anything people say , people are so weak willed nowadays.
Yeah I couldn't agree with you more, people are weak willed. Especially the youtube troll. Bunch of jerkoffs sitting behind their keyboards making anonymous comments on the internet lol. What you said isn't even true. His views haven't changed at all since the name change.
FAQs:
1. She pays for the car herself.
2. She didn't get the lighting package because it was a former service loaner vehicle so she wasn't able to pick options.
3. She leases the car because a low-mileage lease works for her situation of frequent but low mileage driving.
Matt Maran Motoring I love the video!! You never disappoint! 😀
Thank God she Leases because it will soon be an endless money PIT as Scotty Kilmer would say. Leasing any German car is the best Idea unless you have millions.
Eric T not true
It looks pretty nice for being a former loaner vehicle. A lot of the time the loaners are really beat up.
Well done! Beth did a great job! I hope in the future, you two could review cars together. That would be fun and awesome!
"Lets turn on this back road and see how she handles?" I was waiting for that. 😂😂
"Luckily I haven't gotten into an accident" she a savage 😂😂😂😂😂
Raleek Smith hahahahah I lol'd at that too
Raleek Smith how is she a savage?
I'm sure this comment section will be filled with plenty of appropriate, constructive comments about your wife and this video... Seriously, though, not a bad job for her first review! She certainly shares your enthusiastic reviewing style.
peteyification But that key fob!
Knife Nut NAHAHAHAHAHAHAH IM DEAD
She's great and funny trying to copy Matt's style :)
yea she's funny, there are funny people in our world btw. good though you understand Yankees' sense of humor
Lol Matt's always gotta talk about bolstering, never fails practically cut his wife off haha
Matt gets off to aggressive bolstering for sure. It's a major turn off for him when the seat doesn't quite hold him in place as he turns down a backroad.
😂😂
i appreicate bolstering
🤣 we need a compilation of Matt talking about "bolstering"
"NAME CHANGE" LMAO
J.A.G. Omg best part I was rolling on the floor haha
"I like the steering wheel.. it's round..... " few seconds later..... "gauge is round as well..." hahahah
Steven Wang That was hilarious
Keep that over on Mr. Hunts channel.
This channel needs more fun things its good but boring
Lol I died when she said that
Steven Wang I was abt to comment the same thing 😂🤣
I thought Matt Maran was married to subaruwrxfan... what a twist?!
DreiZ Dafuq 😂
Mrs. SubaruWRXFan. I laughed so hard at the intro.
This was fun. My wife and I enjoyed watching this video together. We could not stop smiling the entire time. She says you two are such a cute couple. You are meant for each other. I concur.
I always enjoy seeing the 'other/better half' making an appearance on occasion. Behind every good man is an even greater woman.
Keep up the good work my friends.
Matt the type of guy to have a lovely wife
KFC Manager truu
This is a nice change of pace

Yo Matt, is your wife single?
Clorox bleach 😂😂😂😂😂
Bruh, nah.
Clorox bleach oh nah 💀💀😂😂

This the best review on the channel 😂😂😂
Marcus Blair w
Wrx? Fan? SUBARU?
Late to this video, but the 2016 C300 is awesome. It's such a nimble saloon. I'm sure she upgraded to an SUV, but c300 is one of the best cars I've ever owned for the value.
Haha this was great!
ChrisFix you are also great :)
Hey, I’m so glad crisfix looking at this, means I’m going trough the good path 😱😎
ChrisFix you should get a Mercedes C300 too
This video was awesome! Beth definitely shares your enthusiasm and sense of humor lol. You guys are an adorable couple, and hopefully we get to see you guys together in more videos! Keep up the good stuff Matt!
Matt got absolutely roasted at 7:05.
Hella yeah. Beth is a savage lol
Matt the type of guy to wear an apron and bake muffins while his wife is at work
I'd bake cookies if I could go to be with her every night
Who here has no clue Matt was married 👋🏼
Not me. I knew.
And has a kid, if the car seat is an indicator.
superchan7 His wife is a nanny so if she's frequently transporting kids, she needs a car seat
cinnygames yeah I realised this after watching it from the beginning...lol oops!
I knew but wasn't sure to a girl or a guy.....
Awee you guys are adorable
Anyone notice she's looking at Matt not the camera 😂
Christopher B. Yeah LOLLLL
Christopher B. I think she's looking at the screen of the camera not Matt.
We don't take time to see it when you do your car reviews as usual, but when you see someone make her first review, you see that Matt is experienced and know its stuff weel and havent started yesterday. Good job Matt and your wife too, great channel
She had the same hand movement at the beginning LOL
NAME CHANGE 😂😂
Matt- what a keeper she is! Smart & witty, cute, and bubbly too..

Great video bro! You have a great partner, blessings to you both! :)
this is what all comments should look like when a loved one is featured. stay classy SUBURUWRXFANS
Did no one else notice when she mentioned not getting in any accidents, then proceeds to laugh at Matt lol
he is going to pay hahahaha
As a female who is picking up the same make model vehicle this week, I appreciate a review from another female. 😊.
Matt, When will you do a Collab review with Subaruwrxfan??
Oh wait....
this for the win
I have a 2015 c300 white with Led premium package with star shape wheels i love it

you're right, no one will read this
I read it. Very informative. Thank you for posting.
Matt, love that you made that video, her sense of humor and both of you had me smiled quite a few times!
When I heard the "whats up everybody..." intro i really l.o.l. hahaha, u guys are great! Really loved your style.
You're awesome for bringing back the original intro song, it makes me happy.
you should add her in more of your reviews
"It's... round!!" That was great!
Love the way she mimicked and mocked your style. Great video!
Matt your wife is very cool
She's got great taste in cars
LOL. So good!! Thanks Beth for reviewing your car!! You two are awesome! The comment followed by the snort at 7:02 was great.
Hmm. A RUclipsr features his wife in the video and doesn't disable the comments. (Grabs popcorn).
Great review from your wife. A lot better than other so called "motor journalists" out there on RUclips. Real world review from a real world lady!
Why are new cars still being made with halogen bulbs? Especially these "premium" cars? makes them look so much cheaper than the classy xenon
Aphexis so that they can continue to nickel and dime their customers to upcharge for the better lights. All Audi’s now come standard with HID lights. Mercedes should follow.
Awesome video Matt. I hope you do more videos like this with your wife. The dynamic is hilarious. I think she would be a great addition in terms of a non-auto enthusiast perspective.
300k SUBSCRIBERS HYPE !!!!!
More Mrs.Subaruwrxfan! You guys are great together. You have awesome reviews and found a way to go next level. Very entertaining. Great job!
Great job Beth!!! Matt you need to include her more often!
CarGuy11 I agree!
Good for you Matt! Really enjoyed this one!
She's a natural, should let her do more videos, getting a woman's perspective of things can be helpful (sometimes lol)
This genuinely made me laugh! I love it! All the little jokes are hilarious!
"Luckily, I have not gotten into an accident..." 😂
Your wife even does your signature hand gesture in the intro of your video lmao epic. Great video.
This review makes me so happy
Omg Beth, that was the funniest video by far. You two had me cracking up the whole time. Great review, been a huge fan for a long time.
I was hoping when they turned on the backroad she'd freak out about the acceleration 😂😂😂
To be honest I usually watch your reviews up to the acceleration part, after watching your acceleration reaction I give the video a thumbs up and just quit it But I watched this review to the last second....you guys are the cutest couple I've seen in my whole life!
Matt, teach her how to drive stick
oh you xD
Ino Torres oh god xD
Oh Rob, what will you say next.
Seriously I want that video to happen.
Im glad you brought that old intro back!!! Like it much better than the one you were using
Great job Beth! We'll look forward to seeing more of you in the future, but I had to laugh in the beginning you are sitting behind the wheel and then it immediately switches to a closeup of the wheel and we see hairy legs.... 😂
However we get to see her legs at the beginning - def. not hairy :)
Nice job for a first go! Loved the enthusiasm! And the intro was awesome. Hahaha
Love your videos Matt!
This is hysterical, you two chatting back and forth. Very funny. Good job you two.
Nice review Beth!!!
Super cool video Matt. You should get the wife's perspective more often. Also, I would be proud to be seen with a woman wearing that shirt. ☺
nice wife, dude.
Ahahah, you are a wonderful couple and Mrs. Maran is great, she has humour sense and clearly had much fun in this review. Good work!
After this review she's probably like "I never knew my husband was such a car freak" 😅
Matt your Fired, Let her take over the channel and hit 1mil subs, My wife was in my last video making fun of me on my outro. The Pull, No Reaction...lol we all know who the screamer is now.
More reviews with Mrs. Maran until she becomes a expert like you Matt! 😊
What a review! So entertaining to watch you two together. I laughed throughout the video!
Matt, respectfully, you have a beautiful wife and I'm happy for you. #Niceguysfinishingfirst
This was such a fun video to watch. Specially the "Name Change" at the beginning.
She's cute. Nice grab Matt.
This is the best video on the internet. Ms. Maran is hilarious !
I can't wait for the 300k acceration reaction video
i loved this video. you both obviously had a lot of fun making it, the round steering wheel comment actually made me laugh out loud. great vid,
Be careful...you might have some hosting competition on your hands!!!!😎
You should consider doing more videos like this! Its a mix of humorous and serious!
"I'm a nanny" Drives a freaking mercedes
If I was wealthy I wouldn't be surprised if my nanny drove a Benz. Because I'd be paying for the best.
My Daughter is a Nanny and bought a house and leases a new Civic so if you have a nice resume. ......
Well done, a funny video. I appreciate them being able to not be so serious about everything. Clearly some lighthearted poking at her husband's mannerisms. Was a nice touch.
She lets you drive her car after you wrecked the mustang twice
Awesome video!!! I love how she reviewed in your "style" and had me laughing on her reaction(or lack there of) when doing an acceleration! You guys are awesome, well done 👍
At last. Would she like to review a 2017 Porsche 911 C4S that smells like gorillas and dog?
She's an animal person so I'm sure a Porsche that smells like a zoo wouldn't phase her a bit lol.
This is so great Matt! She did a great job and I for one think she should do some in the future! You guys could divide and conquer and put 1.5x-2x the content 👍🏻 Kudos from KY sir! 🇺🇸🥃
"Luckily I have NOT gotten into an accident" hahaahahaha xDD
Funny vid Matt! nicely done :)
Plot twist: It's his sister.
This is awesome, Matt. I loved this video and was a great change of pace!
i dont know if thats me but when y'all smile or laugh y'all look the same
This was my absolute favorite vid by you! So funny thanks Matt!! You guys are the cutest couple ever! Have some kids already!!!
haha the perfect couple ❤️
This was so funny especially when she teased Matt. Very sweet! It was also interesting seeing the difference between things a car enthusiast and a more typical driver say about a car. Something we car geeks need to remember :)
Miss the old intro
Great job Mrs. Maran
on your 1st Auto Review!!!
If the name was subaruwrxfan , it wouldve gotten more views by now
Mo Lo wrong
Mo Lo No.. he made a professional move by making it Matt Maran Motoring, it's a better brand name.
Thanks "Mo Lo", if there is one thing you obviously know about is good naming. Maybe you can change your name to Asshat to better represent yourself lol
Lol , I don't know why are you pissed off , there was no offense in what i said to Matt , Dont get offended easily by anything people say , people are so weak willed nowadays.
Yeah I couldn't agree with you more, people are weak willed. Especially the youtube troll. Bunch of jerkoffs sitting behind their keyboards making anonymous comments on the internet lol. What you said isn't even true. His views haven't changed at all since the name change.
Well done Mrs. Maran, keep up the good work, love your smile.
