you have to have MBrace and be an active subscriber, which I doubt most, if any, people have on a w203.

I received a letter in the mail. I don't have the letter with me, but I think if you go to the MBrace section of MBUSA you should be able to find it. The offer is open to all as far as I know.

So I found this page:

http://www.mbusa.com/mercedes/mbrace/packages

It says it's an annual fee of $280.

Could you link me or show me how to find your life-time offer

The letter is back at the house 7,000 miles west of me, but if you call them and give them your VIN I would expect that they can help you. It didn't sound like an exclusive offer to me.

In the spirit of connecting you to the things you need at the moment you need them, answers to many common questions can be found below. For more information about mbrace, please consult your dealer or call the Mercedes-Benz mbrace Response Center toll free at 1-866-990-9007.

Lol. Thanks, I guess.
I'll call when I'm home, which is 9,964 miles away from me right now.

But I'm really not as interested as I initially was.
I was hoping for an auto-start function as well.
