I probably won't see it for at least a week or so as it has to be shipped. Hope it is as nice as they advertised it. But hey, for $8K what can I expect?

Any one has experience with the C280?

Have not decided what to do with the 300E yet. I don't think I can sell it with that many miles. Idea, anybody?

My advice is sell the C280 QUICKLY, and just keep the 300E....It's a MUCH better car. I am not a fan of the C class at all....Looks like a Honda, but won't last half as long!

Sorry to put a downer on your new purchase......but I have to be honest.

Mike
