Next gen MB C-class interior revealed

Here's my mini rant about interiors...I've only owned BMWs and honestly I think my next car after my 7 series will be something other than a BMW and one of the reason is the interiors on BMWs. The interiors on BMWs remain the same for all the models, the 7 series interior is almost the same as a base model 5 series interior. Mercedes on the other hand has a unique interior to the model and honestly it's quite refreshing to buy a car which doesn't share the same interior with another model.

Not too bad, but that Navigation screen looks out of place like in the CLA.

A lot of manufacturers have done two left levers. The lower one is usually for the Cruise Control if it isn't mounted on the steering wheel.

The stupid tablet and the thing in the center console where the gear selector should be looks a fucking radar detector...

Everyone's moving towards the floating "iPad" like navigation screens, it does look bad and out of place.

Mercedez-Benz clearly placed a mass order of the liquidated $99 HP Touchpads

That's exactly what it is, and it's a pain in the ass sometimes.

Nope. Still not feeling the "dash-mounted GPS" look. I do love the rest of the centre stack look, though. It's got a very 60's push button aura about it.

the door panels design is the best part of the interior. IMO the seat adjustment buttons and speakers look classy.

Really can't stand how de-integrating the nav-screen is becoming a fad now.

As much as I want to say I like this new C-Class interior, in my opinion, nothing quite compares to the look and feel of the new Lexus IS interior. German cars miss the "razor-sharp" craftsmanship the Japanese are so capable and well-known for, without ever needing to use a "vintage-feel", their designs always seem cutting-edge and sleek.

I don't know if it's just me, but my love towards German interiors is severely declining. I prefer the E90 interior over the F30 anyday, and the current C-Class interior seems much more business-like and orderly, and I've never been a fan of Audi interiors so I can't comment.

As far as luxury cars go, Lexus currently makes my favourite interiors by a long shot, particularly the IS F-Sport

2014 IS

holy shit, it looks amazing, i really like what MB has done with the facelifts and refreshed interior. Really looks classy and sporty.

To be honest man that nav does look kind of bad, but the rest of the interior makes up for it quite well. And honestly it doesn't really matter about the nav, is that one thing gonna ruin it for the whole car? If it still drives good and feels good then it's all cool.

An analogy would be: A mole on a super hot chick's face. She's got a good personality and body though. Would that mole make you wanna bang her less? Just spin her around and bang her from the back.

I hate home audio company audio systems in cars. Whats a home audio company know about car audio. I would rather see JL, Focal, pioneer and other companies that have decades of experience be used in car. I have heard a B&O system in high end Audi many times. it's O.K. but nothing great.

2 to 3k would get you something better. You don't need 12 plus speakers or what ever in a car. A pair of components and a single sub with a 5 channel amp installed right would be better.

I was at the Lexus dealership and sat in the new IS, the interior design didn't impress me that much. I think the new C-Class interior looks better (okay, with the exception of the ipad after thought).

Why the hell does anyone need Facebook on the Infotainment of a car? I hope there would be a way to delete that app. That IS-F interior is a mess of deformed angles and jarring edges. The dash plastic above the side HIVAC vents looks curled back like angry eyebrows. Squint just right and you think you're in a Corolla with all that shiny plastic.
