 It is in fact an absolute joke. Don't buy it or lease it because the driver's seat is so badly designed that you are going to end up in the hospital. The front interior of the car is TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. There's nowhere to put the cell phone. You've got to be a rocket scientist to put the a/c on and off. The car also stalls and you can't start it again. Also the power steering randomly freezes with no warning and you are stuck until it decides to work again. I have driven all the cars in my life and this car should have never been on the market. There is not much difference with the 2016 C300. DON'T BUY IT. THE MERCEDES C300 IS THE WORST CAR OF THE YEAR.
