Base price of C300 is 40k. I'd imagine that is why he didn't change to the C63 for its base of 60k.

Interestingly, the C300 has almost exactly the same horsepower as BMW's 2.0T.

If I may ask....
Was it a lease? What made you decide to go for a C300 instead of say a newer X1?

yes, AMG is too much $$ for me, C300 is 228 hp and 221 pound-feet of torque, V6, i would say you can feel the car much heavier than X1, the power steering on X1 feels heavier, one thing i found out is that when i drove X1, i can heard the road noise a lot which not too much for C300.
