all wheel drive for coupe?

when i got my car i asked my dealer if the car was going to be changed at all in the next 3 yrs or so- and she told me that the only thing she knew about was all wheel drive for 2003.....? i dont think i have seen it mentioned here tho. also of course she never mentioned a major engine change or a facelifted front..... i wish i knew it might have affected my decision comments.....?

There is a lot of conflicting info about what's going on for 2003. A sales rep at my dealership also told me that there were no major changes for the upcoming model year. Yet, depending on whose post you read, it could be a little or a lot.

I'm sooooo confused. :p

i think that bmw has that option for the 3 series, i think they call it the ix. but i don't see many of them around. besides i live in san diego. we have only had less than an inch of rain this year. i won't even drive my car in the rain, that is what my beater is for.

Go to the following link:

http://www.mercedes-benz.ca/index2.cfm?LNG=E

Click "About Us" > Click "FAQs" > Click "Products" > Click on the 4th question

You can find the answer there! I guess Canada & US share the same lineup (only different options for each models).

AWD is supposedly a late year option for C320. Not for the coupe. Your salesmonkey been smokin too many bananas.
