Planning on buying an '03 c230 next month. Just the word "mercedes" makes people think "expensive". When I tell people I'm buying a Mercedes, they think the cost of parts would be double other vehicles. But I did research and saw that parts were not too expensive, they were even similar or less than some japanese cars. Is it really expensive to maintain? I like Mercedes, great reliability, strenght, last a long time. Any Benz owners out there?
don't want a 3 series, insurance is sky high. prefer a mercedes.
According to JD Power, the 2003 c class received scores of being better than most and among the best. The car I'm buying, I have already done my homework on.
LOL it's so funny...whenever someone asks me what kind of car I'm getting, they shake their heads, or say get a cheaper car, or "after a year you'll think the car isn't worth it" or, "dont expect to save any money with that car", LOL, it's so funny because they have no idea what the costs are to buy, insure, and maintain a c230.
bill thanks but no thanks. have fun with your escort. I have plenty of friends with mercedes, they are great cars. BMW's are nice, but not nice enough imo. and that website you put there was doodoo.
