Can't get front seat tilted...
I'm trying to determine if I can get a comfortable seating position in the new C-Class.
I've tried the adjustments on the driver's seat on the C300 sport, but I can't seem to get the seat to tilt back so that my thighs are supported. I like to have my seat inclined such that the front of seat under my thighs is higher than the back of the seat where I plant my rear end.
Does anyone else have this problem?
Are the seats any different in the C350 or the luxury?

I have the same complaint on my 06 C350. The only way I can get a comfortable angle is to adjust the seat cushion as low as it will go in the rear and as high as possible in the front.
I have had this problem with MB seats since they eliminated one motor. I believe my W124's were the last where the front and rear height adjustments were completely independent.

I too was disappointed in the adjustments in the seats. When I was playing with it at the dealer I couldn't find a way to 'raise' the seat as I could in our Avalon or Endeavor. Bummer.
