First Merc Arrived on Saturday - Love it
Hi, I have had Audi's BMW's VW's Fords and even a Fiat Punto (as my first car - shame on me , right). I have to say I am dead impressed with my 2012 C350 AMG Sport. Its so much more refined than I expected it to be. The steering is excellent - I dont know why the electronic steering got such bad stick?! the ride is very good and comfortable. Generally.... Love it love it love it.
I do have a question: I noticed in the instruction manual that the Automatic AMG Engine cars do not change gear when put into manual - even if you hit the limiter, it only waits for paddle +/-; is there any way the 7g Auto box in my C350 can be updated to have this function? My BMW did the same no red-line auto gear change thing and I was really saddened that even though my spec is AMG I dont get the fun proper manual flappy paddles (after all - this sort of functionality cant be tested on a test drive.... right?! ;-) )
