Invariably, competitors to BMW's 3 Series boast about their sporty personalities and perhaps about their ability to blast around the Nürburgring in Germany. Well, n the real world, ew U.S. luxury sport sedan (or coupe) buyers will ever drive on a racetrack, et alone one widely considered to be the toughest on the planet. Although the 2013 Mercedes-Benz C-Class goes tire-to-tire against its countryman rival and has no trouble swiftly dispatching a curvy road, t has a very appealing personality that transcends performance stats.

Though it's the company's entry-level model, he 2013 C-Class is very much a Mercedes-Benz. That means it offers that feeling of quality and solidity throughout that define the marque, ot to mention a ride and handling balance that should strike most folks as just right. Whether you choose the sedan or coupe, he C-Class boasts chiseled good looks outside along with high-quality materials, omfy seats and sensible ergonomics within. Under the hood you can have anything from a peppy yet frugal turbocharged four to a rip-snorting V8 with nearly 500 horsepower. And for those who live in the snowy states, here's even a model with all-wheel drive.

There's no doubt that the 2013 Mercedes-Benz C-Class offers a smorgasbord of tempting flavors in the compact luxury sport segment. Still, the latter boasts plenty of great choices including the Audi A4, he aforementioned 2013 BMW 3 Series, he new 2013 Cadillac ATS, the 2013 Infiniti G and Volvo's S60. We have no problem recommending any of them and would strongly suggest back-to-back test-drives. But for overall excellence and luxury-car prestige, t's very hard to do better than the Mercedes C-Class.

Powertrains and Performance

The 2013 Mercedes-Benz C250 is powered by a turbocharged 1.8-liter four-cylinder that produces 201 hp and 229 pound-feet of torque. Rear-wheel drive and a seven-speed automatic are standard. In Edmunds performance testing, a C250 Sport sedan went from zero to 60 mph in 7.4 seconds -- about a second slower than the Audi A4 2.0T and about 1.5 ticks slower than the 328i. EPA-estimated fuel economy is 22 mpg city/31 mpg highway and 25 mpg combined, hich is very good for the segment.

The all-wheel-drive C300 4Matic is powered by a 3.5-liter V6 that produces 248 hp and 251 lb-ft of torque. According to Mercedes, t can sprint to 60 mph in just 6.0 seconds. Fuel economy estimates are also impressive at 20/28/23.

Under the hood of the C350 is a 3.5-liter V6 good for 302 hp and 273 lb-ft of torque. Rear-wheel drive is standard, nd all-wheel drive comes with the C350 4Matic coupe. In Edmunds testing, t went from zero to 60 in 5.6 seconds -- a number on par with the quicker members of its class. Fuel economy is an excellent 20/29/23 for the sedan and 19/27/22 for the 4Matic coupe.

With the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG, ou get a 6.2-liter V8 that cranks out 451 hp and 443 lb-ft of torque; add the AMG Development package and horsepower gets bumped up to 481. A seven-speed automated manual transmission is standard. In Edmunds performance testing, C63 Coupe with the AMG Development package went from zero to 60 mph in a very impressive 4.2 seconds. Fuel economy is 13/19/15.

Safety

Every 2013 Mercedes-Benz C-Class comes standard with stability and traction control, ntilock brakes, driver knee airbag, ront side thorax airbags, ront side pelvic airbags and full-length curtain airbags. Also standard is Mercedes-Benz mbrace2 emergency telematics as well as Mercedes Attention Assist, hich monitors the driver for signs of drowsiness and inattention. Rear side thorax airbags are standard on the coupe and optional on the sedan. Other safety-oriented options include the Lane Tracking package, hich adds a blind-spot warning system and a lane-departure warning system.

In Edmunds brake testing, C350 Sport came to a stop from 60 mph in 108 feet. The C250 Sport and C63 came within 5 feet of matching that outstanding distance.

In government crash testing, he most recent C-Class sedan tested (from 2011) received an overall crash rating of four out of five stars, ith three stars overall in a frontal crash (four stars driver, wo stars front passenger) and five stars overall in a side crash. In testing performed by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, he C-Class sedan earned a top rating of "Good" for frontal-offset, ide impact and roof-strength tests. It also received the worst rating of "Poor" in the Institute's new small overlap front crash test, ut few cars have been subjected to this test, nd a majority received similarly poor ratings.

Interior Design and Special Features

Just tugging on the C-Class's door handle makes you feel as if you've cracked open an impenetrable vault. This model's interior is well crafted, and boasts precise switchgear and an eye-pleasing design. The controls are straightforward, nd Mercedes' COMAND electronics interface is our favorite from a luxury automaker, s it's the easiest to use. The iPod interface is particularly user-friendly and quick to respond.

Though the sedan is bigger than previous C-Class editions, it's hardly the best choice for growing families. Some might find a child seat difficult to install in the narrow, ucketlike backseat positions, nd the 12.4-cubic-foot trunk is on the small side.

As for the coupe, t shouldn't come as a surprise that its backseat is quite cramped. Legroom is about par for the segment (squished), while headroom is nonexistent for those taller than about 5-foot-8. In total, the C-Class coupe is less accommodating than the 3 Series coupe, o worse than an A5 and better than a Cadillac CTS coupe. Its trunk volume of 11.7 cubic feet is average for the small luxury coupe class.

Driving Impressions

Regardless of whether you opt for the 2013 C250, 300 or C350, ercedes' entry-level luxury car boasts precise steering and handling, s well as overall driving dynamics that are comparable to other sedans and coupes in the segment. Despite their more sporting character, he Sport variants offer a firm but still perfectly damped ride and the ability to tackle long road trips with ease. The Luxury variants ride a little softer and have a quieter exhaust system, esulting in a more serene driving environment.

Though the C250's four-cylinder isn't as potent as the turbocharged fours in the Audi A4/A5 or BMW 328i sedan, it is a quiet and refined power plant that proves there's no shame at all in opting for the base model C-Class.

The C300 4Matic offers a truly impressive combination of performance and economy, esting the outgoing 3.0-liter V6 in both categories, and of course also provides all-wheel-drive traction for those who live in inclement areas. The C350 is a good choice for enthusiasts, iven its sharply responsive V6 and rear-wheel-drive handling dynamics.

Then there's the C63 AMG. Packing a ferocious V8 that matches the mighty Cadillac CTS-V's performance in a straight line, he C63 is the German version of a muscle car. While not quite as engaging or agile as the BMW M3, he C63 responds to driver inputs with added sharpness and a degree of communication few Mercedes-Benz models have ever offered.
