My recommendation is to go to a web site like Edmunds and check out "Research Prices & Specs." Then when you've selected the model you're interested in, read what owners have to say in "Consumer Rating". Also look at the "J.D. Power Rating" and "Overview"
Hope this helps

In December 2005 I traded my 2002 Audi A4 1.8T on a 2006 C230. I enjoyed my Audi, but I've been even happier with the Mercedes. In my own experience, it truly is a better constructed car.

My only regret is that I didn't step up to the 350. I enjoy the 230, and it's great having the V6 after the Audi's 4 cyl, but the 230 feels like it just has enough power to get out of its own way. I also feel the transmission (I opted for the 7-speed auto) could be better about kicking down, but that just might be a matter of personal preference.

also depends on how much u r willing to spend...u are hopefully aware on the oil changes with the audi and the benz...the benz is wayyy more expensive... iif u like speed u better stick to the audi... cuz the benz.. i donno ... its just not the same...maybe its because i had an s4 before and obviously its wayy faster than the c240 i got now.. in my opinion u cant compare the 2.. in anyway... they are just completely diff. cars... parts and everything is more expensive for the benz... shoot i mean when u go change ur turning signal bulb u gotta change some stupid sensor... wth who comes up with that idea???? not audi!... although the alignment seems to go bad on the audis way faster than the benz... if u dnt have as much bad luck like me with audis then go for the audi... although... again if u r thinking of gettin like an 01 a4 1.8t or a c32 amg...ummm u better go for the benz then... and if u want 4 wheel drive and stick shift...audi is ur way to go... thats one thing that makes me mad they need 4 wheel drive cars that are manual trans...not auto u dnt have enough control over the car wen its auto trans...
