In my opinion C is good as it is. C++ is terrible complicated mess, always have been and adding more and more "modern" functionality isn't helping it much. There are great standard functions, e.g. for strings in C, whereas it is often very inconvenient or complicated to do simple things like uppercase string in C++. I always ended up basically using C with just basic OOP functionality from C++. But I am not writing in C/C++ daily so my opinion is not very important...
