About This 2016 Mercedes-Benz C-Class C 300

The 2016 C-Class represents one of the most compelling generations Mercedes-Benz has ever produced. When it debuted, automotive critics praised it for bringing S-Class design language and interior refinement down to a far more accessible price point. This particular example comes in a classic silver finish that suits the C-Class lines beautifully, and at just over 87,000 miles, it's well within the range where these vehicles continue to perform at a high level when properly maintained. For buyers in Yakima and the surrounding Yakima County area looking for a used European luxury sedan, this is a genuinely rare find at this price.

2016 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Performance and Engine

Under the hood sits a 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine — and before you think a 4-cylinder sounds underwhelming for a Mercedes, think again. This engine produces 241 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque, giving the C 300 genuinely quick acceleration that rivals many larger displacement engines. It's paired with Mercedes-Benz's refined 7G-TRONIC Plus 7-speed automatic transmission, which delivers smooth, almost imperceptible gear changes whether you're cruising the highway or navigating city traffic.

The rear-wheel-drive configuration gives the C 300 a sporty, balanced driving feel that front-wheel-drive competitors simply can't match. RWD means the front wheels do the steering while the rear wheels handle the power — the classic formula for a satisfying, driver-focused experience. On the open roads between Yakima and the surrounding region, this powertrain setup makes every drive genuinely enjoyable.

Mercedes-Benz C-Class Features and Interior

Step inside the 2016 C-Class C 300 and the first thing you'll notice is how far above its price class the interior feels. Mercedes used high-quality materials throughout — soft-touch surfaces, available leather seating, and a dashboard design that was widely recognized as one of the most attractive in its segment. The C 300 trim typically includes dual-zone automatic climate control, a COMAND infotainment system with navigation, Bluetooth connectivity, a rearview camera, and keyless entry with push-button start.

The seating position, steering wheel feel, and general cockpit layout all communicate that this is a driver's car. Rear passengers get a comfortable ride as well, with adequate legroom for a sedan in this class. Whether you're commuting through Yakima or heading out toward Ellensburg, Selah, or the Yakima Valley wine country, the interior comfort on long drives is a genuine highlight.

Mercedes-Benz C-Class Reliability and Ownership

The W205-generation C-Class — which covers the 2015 through 2021 model years — has developed a solid reputation among used luxury car buyers. The 2.0-liter turbocharged engine in the C 300 is considered one of the more dependable powertrains in the Mercedes lineup, particularly when oil changes are kept up to schedule. The 7G-TRONIC Plus transmission is smooth and long-lasting when serviced properly.

Owners consistently report that the C-Class holds up well past 100,000 miles with routine maintenance, and many reach 150,000 miles and beyond. As with any European luxury vehicle, the key is staying current on scheduled maintenance — oil changes, brake fluid flushes, and spark plug intervals. At 87,456 miles, this C 300 is in the sweet spot: broken in, but with plenty of life remaining.
