If their intention was to make a C-Class Hatchback to compete against the likes of the Audi A3 and VW Golf, why didn't they create a 5-door version of it? |
The C-class Hatchback was never designed to compete against the Audi A3 or the VW Golf. They are designed for badge snob MB owner wannabes who cannot afford to buy a C class classic. I have seen these cars driven on the road by girls, actually 100% of the C coupe drivers i have seen are girls, very bimbo looking type ones who thinks their little car is the best thing around. I think MB realised that they don't need this new C coupe to remain competitive. they just need to change the front and the back styling to appeal to these type of buyers.
The original C sports coupe was a half arsed job already, this one is even worse. Please MB just stop making the dam thing.
