Buckinghamshire Fire & Rescue Service said two crews from Aylesbury and an officer attended the incident.
Firefighters assessed the driver and an occupant of the flat for injuries and confirmed that no injuries were reported.
The collision caused significant structural damage to the building, with around 10 flats evacuated as a precaution. A safety cordon was established and electricity supplies to the affected building were isolated.
An Emergency Planning Officer and Building Control attended, while firefighters assisted specialist agencies as the building was assessed and temporarily secured using structural support equipment.
An eyewitness told Bucks Radio they believed the car had been travelling at high speed shortly before the collision on Bicester Road, which has a 30mph speed limit. The estimated speed has not been confirmed by police.
The witness said the vehicle entered the lounge of a ground-floor flat where a woman and baby were inside at the time.
They also told Bucks Radio they had previously witnessed a number of vehicles apparently racing along Bicester Road.
Thames Valley Police said no arrests have been made and its investigation into the circumstances of the collision is ongoing.
Officers want to hear from anyone who saw a silver Mercedes in the Bicester Road area before the collision, or who has footage of the vehicle.
Anyone with information is asked to call Thames Valley Police on 101, quoting reference 43260519780.
