New Ride

No more BMWs in my driveway. Just this 2012 C300 4Matic Sport.

Looks like a nice clean car. Except the driver's footwell - need to borrow my ShopVac?

Don't worry, this forum will hold you over for when you get your next Beemer back in that driveway....

Haha it's all good man. I only noticed because I spent half of the day today detailing the crap out of my interior. Enjoy the MB!

Will be awaiting the review.
Runflats? Ditch them, ride like crap, inside front tire wear ruined them and feared all potholes.
Time to visit Weathertech for the mats before Winter sets in.

Cool Jeep, rodi. Nothing to climb around here.

I was pleasantly surprised to see a spare in the trunk. It's a space saver, but it beats carrying a can of goo and an air pump.

Yeah I ditched the runflats in my mini after they wore out, and plan to do the same with my X1.

Nice car

One thing I love about this car, and it's always been like this with Mercs, is that when you first start to move, it feels like the world is moving past you instead of the other way around. I have yet to drive more than 8 or 10 miles at a stretch in it, though.

Beautiful car, just pathetic that Mercedes doesn't offer proper hid headlights standard on a c300. Boggles my mind

The LED strips with yellow halogens look terrible at night. They honestly look like modded Honda civics with aftermarket LED strips. MB should either go all LED and all halogen; there is no in between.

Dynaplug, neat way to plug your tires.All you need is a compressor and a jack helps too.
