2008 Mercedes-Benz C350 Sport - OEM Review

For an entry-level Benz, the C350 Sport is pretty impressive, if you can grasp the COMAND system and peripheral controls. Pair it up with an aftermarket amp and sub and you've got a reasonably good system.
-Casey Thorson

C350 Sport Key Features
Entertainment Package $2,950
Comand System with hard drive-based navigation
Six-disc CD/DVD changer
Harman/Kardon Logic7 discrete multichannel surround sound system, PCMCIA slot.
MusicRegisterwith CD ripping
Voice Control

The C350 has one of the best setups for entertainment with the main control dial on the center console, the buttons on the center stack and steering wheel controls. The display in the instrument cluster allows for easy viewing as you access the system. Once accustomed to the menu navigation, drivers will be pleased with the ease of use.
-Ben Oh

I would say it ranks up there with the best factory offerings, and may even better the impressive Mark Levinson system in the Lexus LS.
-Casey Thorson

While I found the ergonomics of the system difficult and not intuitive to use, sonically, I found it adequate. As with all of the factory audio systems that I have listened to, this system didn't go down very low in frequency and it didn't reproduce the high frequencies very well either.
