Is it possible to change woman's voice to man's in Navigation System?

Hi I just got my new 2009 c 300 sport 4 matic as a graduation gift!!!!!!!!! and.......I LOVE IT!!!!!!

But the woman's voice in the navigation system annoys me- any way to change it to a man's or even better.... a man's with a British accent?

Thanks in advance for any advice!!!!

Happy New Year!
