The Mercedes 2014 C250 Sport is an unusually nice little car. While just about Mercedes cheapest car, it's much nicer than many of Mercedes other cheap cars have been. Sticker price new with typical options is about $40,000.

This car here is the Sport model, which is usually less plush than the Luxury version with the star on the hood. Even this Sport model is very smooth and quiet! It's a solid, nimble, fast, comfortable and well-made car.

The 1.8 liter 4 cylinder turbo engine is powerful, but with only 4 cylinders, a bit of a chugger at idle.

There is leather and wood all over. The seats are Mercedes classic MB tex, a magic material as comfortable as leather but more durable than life itself.

Cloth headliner and sides, 2014 Mercedes C250 Sport.

I am especially impressed with the fit, finish and quality of materials all around. Everything seems as nice as on the S-Klasse, and the C250 is MADE IN GERMANY, not made in the USA like the GL550.

Multiple weather seals, 2014 Mercedes C250 Sport.

The doors have multiple seals for an ultra quiet ride.

Shifter, 2014 Mercedes C250 Sport.

It has a 7-speed automatic.

The manual shifter is perfect: just poke the lever left or right at any time for instant manual shifting. There's none of the stupid multiple motions into another gate or flippers on the steering wheel baloney of lesser cars; in the C250, manual shift is instantaneous and right in your hand.

Control stalks, 2014 Mercedes C250 Sport.

The controls are reversed, with the cruise control under the main control lever.

Center stack, 2014 Mercedes C250 Sport. enlarge.

It uses the same switches as every other current Mercedes.

The radio display is a smaller screen than on larger models. It's easy to tune by feel, but you have to pull over to look at the screen to change from AM to FM.

Tail light, 2014 Mercedes C250 Sport.

Headlights are excellent halogen projector beams. There's no front fog lights, and there is a rear fog light.

The daytime running, tail and license plate lights are LEDs.
