Car nerd

Merc stands on the top of customer service. Driving pleasure is too good makes u feel important and provides luxury. Performance is good, sunblinds could be electric for the rearview passenger. GLC is a low-maintenance car. But yes, the rear passenger may feel a little cramped on long routes.

Underpowered 300d..good lipstick works on interiors & exteriors but lacks power punch & smoothness punch

Pros: Space,plush interiors & features Cons: 300d underpowered for such bulky vehicle..understand 350d getting launched soon with the more punchy powertrain. No Air Suspension given at this cost is beyond my comprehension..it's affecting drive capability in bad patches & off-road capabilities.
