MONTVALE, N.J. --  Mercedes-Benz announced today that the bold new 2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class lineup will begin at $31,975 for the new C300 Sport Sedan (228 hp, 221 lb-ft. of torque).



The all-new C300 Luxury Sedan (228 hp, 221 lb-ft. of torque) will be priced at $33,675, followed by the C350 Sport Sedan (268 hp, 258 lb-ft. of torque) at $37,275.  All prices include a $775 destination fee.

Set to arrive in U.S. Mercedes-Benz dealerships on August 7, the next-generation 2008 C-Class sedan is larger than its highly successful predecessor, with a greater emphasis on driving dynamics, comfort and safety.  The C300 Sport and Luxury models will be available with an all new 4MATIC all-wheel-drive system mated to a seven-speed automatic transmission starting in September.  An impressive list of standard equipment includes a power sunroof, eight-way power front seats with lumbar support, two-zone automatic climate control, 17-inch wheels, Bluetooth connectivity, a central controller, and an LCD display screen.

Why lie with a headline $32,000,nobody is buying this car for that price & any car bought without automatic transmission & the premium 1 package will have absolutley no resale value.The car is not a mercedes without the installed premium & automatic trans ,as a matter of fact I dont even think you can buy the car in the u.s. without it.You can get into this car at the $35 thousand price at the least ,which is still inexpensive, considering it looks better than an e. class,& just as good as an s class ,just a bit smaller.Bottom line the outside is stunning ,only if you go for the luxury not the sport,the sport star does not look like it fits on the grill ,unless you want to look like a pimp ,totally inacurate.,go with the luxury stunning looks like an S class.Now as far as the interior that is something else ,seating comfortable ,with lumbar excellent support.Sirius radio is superb.Interior so so,dash is horrendous with all that plastic ,however I guess that is where they cut corners to keep the car at $35

Bottom line ,this car kicks ass at $35 thousand ,even with the horrific plastic dash,nicer than a 3 series BMW,will put an end to the E class & will have someone think twice of buying an S class when they can buy this car for only $35 grand.Looking at the car it looks like it belongs in places like BEVERLY HILLS ,SOUTH BEACH MIAMI,& parked outside the big homes of LONG ISLAND ,& CONNETICUT.
