[QUOTE="johnnyf30, post: 615079, member: 27618"] I almost settle down on the W204 C class last year but held back due to wait for the launch of F30 in Malaysia. My experience in my own ride as compared to MB C class: Pros: Very powderful as compared my friend's MB W204 C250 CGI Full of tech gadgets (better than MB Comand) especially the half ipad with the sport display It is a driver's car (steering heavier than C class) I prefer 3er's angel eyes to W204 DRL strip Bigger interior space as compared to W204. Overall vehicle size is equivalent to 5 series E39 Smooth shifting of ZF 8-speed GB vs MB 7Gtromic 722.9 GB (A bit of worried that its valve body is going kaput in about 100,000km mileage). Sport+ mode: very good acceleration hit 100 km/h in about 6 secs. This is a new model which is going to last for 7 years whilst the MB W204 has about 2 years to go before reaching the end of lifecycle. Top speed: haven't tried but cruising at 160 km/h is a breeze Cons: Interior is not so luxurious as compared to C class (personal opinion) I have to admit the engine sound is very rough like lorry ("Chiak, Chiak, Chiak, Chiak ..." on idling but the sound not quite visible inside the cabin) The gas pedal positioned to near to the brake pedal (very small gap in between). I stepped on the gas pedal with my right knife foot only. Anyway, these are all my 2 cents and do not feel offended if you do not agree with my opinion. [/QUOTE]
