Welcome Trade Wind! This site also helped me with my decision to take the plunge and buy my SEL about a month ago. Congratulations on your car. I hope you enjoy it as much as I've been enjoying mine.

Thanks Nick! I agree about the power, solid feel and handling. Also, the interior has a really nice feel to it. I almost feel like I'm driving a luxury car now. :)

The Prius is a great car if you're looking only for efficiency in a car. Mine was a very soft riding car, that felt kind of lifeless to drive. My new C Max has been a really nice step up for the interior and the driving experience, but the prius got better mpg's. There's no taking that away from it. The 2016 Prius gets even better mileage, but I would not want to drive a car that looks like that.

There are big discounts. That's why I bought mine now. I got an extra $1000.00 off because I was trading in a Prius. Also, 5 year 0% interest loan.

I think they got off to a bad start having to downgrade the gas mileage twice in the past. They really should take advantage of the fact the Consumer reports now lists it as a recommended vehicle.

Wow, sorry to hear your news. Are you OK? A car can always be replaced.

I'm proud to say I'm one of the 2228 on April 30. :)

Thanks raadsel! I can't believe this car is not more popular. Every time I told someone I was getting a C Max, no one seemed to know what they were. It's like Ford treats it like a red headed stepchild. :) They really need better advertising. So far, I am loving the electrically adjusted leather driver's seat. I haven't been this comfortable in a car since the last Saab I owned. I think this will be a great trip car.

Just got a great deal on a 2016 SEL, Silver with charcoal black leather interior. I'm really loving it so far! What an upgrade from my "other hybrid". The computer is telling me I'm getting 42-43 mpg combined so far. Now I have to wait for the apple car play update later this year. I'm really glad I went for it. It's such a great car for a tall person.

Hi everyone, I currently drive a prius, and after test driving a c max, I decided I want one. My favorite cars that I owned have all been Saabs. I am a big fan of European cars, and when I drove the c max, it made sense to me that is was originally designed in Germany. I have heard rumors that the c max will be discontinued, but it seems like Ford is not making any official statements yet. I even e mailed the corporate office to ask them if they would be bringing the refreshed European C max "facelift" here to the US. This was their response: Thank you for taking one of our C-MAX vehicles out for a drive. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed what it has to offer. At this time, we have no confirmed information about whether we will be changing the style to the body, however; we have documented your interest in the European model for future consideration.

Sincerely, Amy Marketing Program Headquarters Ford Motor Company The reality is that I do not "need" another car now. I have a 2010 with 30,000 miles. The C Max was not in the US when i bought my car. I'm wondering if it would be a wise idea to buy a car that may be discontinued? I would assume there will be parts for them for quite a while. Any thoughts out there?
