What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Mercedes-Benz C-Class
| Price of the Mercedes-Benz C-Class: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan supercharged 189hp 1.8L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
I bought this model used and for a buyer standpoint was quite surprised of the affordability for a class c. Which in fact confirms that depreciation for this model might be higher than expected. |
| 2004 | 4dr Wagon 168-horsepower 2.6L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
I bought this used and got a very reasonable price. |
| Price of the Mercedes-Benz C-Class: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 221hp 3.0L V6 Diesel 7-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Expensive compared to equivalent cars |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan supercharged 181hp 1.8L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
some basic options are overpriced - metallic paint for over $2000 |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 228-horsepower 3.0L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
They need to offer better deals to better compete. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
lower cost than bmw 3 series |
| 2005 | 2dr Hatch supercharged 189hp 1.8L I4 6-speed manual RWD |
Initial purchase cost was substantial for the size of the vehicle. It has retained its value well however. |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 168-horsepower 2.6L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
One would always prefer lower prices, but its still a great buy for the price compartively. |
