oh. the dealer had told me that too. then the people in this forum told me that's baloney and I came back to the dealer and challenged their claim. I told them according to mbusa.com, I could purchase a c320wz with a 6-speed. the printed brochure also indicated the same thing. so they called the factory. Factory told them no problem. they built and shipped the car here 10 weeks after the order had been placed.

Thanks. You've got to get one ! I'm loving it. here's the answer to your question:

it's louder than my old bmw '99 328i but I wouldn't call it loud. at cruising speeds, it's pretty quiet. surprisingly, the seats are softer and more comfortable than my old bmw's sports seats.

the car ran much faster today. hehe. maybe it was me that had caused it to run slow on the first day.

I finally learned how to use the comand navigation. omg, if you don't know your way around like me, you've got to get the comand. it's fantastic.

I push the SOS button, have them direct me to the location where I am going. They can also make appointments and recommend places to go.

same thing with the comand, i would key in the destination and this nice lady would direct me how to get there. when I want to go home, I would enter home and she would tell me exactly what route i would need to take to get home
