The Motor Coach Industries 102-C3 was one of MCI's most popular coaches. It had a redesigned styling similar to the MCI 102-B3, but with a larger area above the windshield similar to the MCI D-Series. Most units had stainless steel on the lower body. This design was later improved upon and released as the D-Series.
