Larry i couldnt agree with you more.. Tonight i picked up my C320,, and let me tell you, your description was extremely accurate.. the C320 was super predictable and super smooth. Dont get me wrong i will miss my 300E very much, its wierd how someone can actually get an emotional attachment to a car. However, the new car somehow makes it easy to forget... Im extremely happy with my choice.
