Picked up my '05 C230K SS on Friday, Pics

So, I ended up not ordering my '05 C230K SS (I didn't want to wait the 3-6 months), but it was a good thing that my dealer had a car in the color I wanted at the port with all the option packages I wanted... I got it with the lighting, entertainment, and sunroof packages. The only things I wasn't able to get that I wanted were the power seats and split fold down rear seats.
Here are some pics...

07 C230 SS Black/Black
nlpamg & Turbo2.
I got my 05 230K on Monday and have about 200 miles so far.
When I try to tap the shift lever to the - and the transmission
ships to first gear.
My 04 230K, if I tap to the -, the transmission shifted to fourth gear .

How is your AT transmission touch shift works ?

Thanks

PS: My is white/ash

2301tom, it should do that. It will automatically shift down to the gear that will give it optimum acceleration...

I actually had picked a silver one, and then I decided to just stick with black. (The old C280 Sport I had was Black/Black as well.)

And thanks for the compliments and welcomes guys!

2301tom-

When you tap the selector to the left (-) it should downshift to the next gear, not necessiarly 1st.

Enjoy the car!

I sat in a red one with 6-speed at the dealer. red is a too flashy color for a sedan, i think
