A slightly dim star
Meanwhile, the Lexus IS 250 AWD ($37,600) neither boasts the same level of quality nor enjoys the same reputation as the C-Class. The Infiniti G35x ($43,540) is one of the most sought-after sedans on the market thanks to its overall homogeneity and all-around performance. The only other serious threat comes from the Cadillac CTS 4 ($41,400), which embodies the true American sports sedan -- good and bad. As for the Volvo S60 2.5T AWD ($45,995) and Saab 9-3 XWD ($46,330), they're both lagging way behind the C-Class.

The 2008 Mercedes-Benz C300 4MATIC truly is a capable machine offering an attractive exterior.

Conclusion
The 2008 Mercedes-Benz C300 4MATIC truly is a capable machine offering an attractive exterior, an understated interior and great overall quality. Like most vehicles, it does not come without a few disappointments, like intrusive driving aids, but fans will rapidly forget about them.

Despite being freshly redesigned, the C-Class fails to stand up to some competitors in certain key areas. Having said that, premium car buyers will tell you it's a matter of passion and prestige. Plus, the company offers two different visual identities to suit the personality of owners.
