2008 vs 2009

So , i dropped my 2008 c300 off this morning for some body work ( people cant see cars parked so they hit them) and i was given a 2009 c300 as a loaner. Right off the bat i noticed the instrument cluster had been redesigned. Also memory seat controls built into the driver door (looks great imo). THis car has 18465 miles on it. My car has 10201 miles on it. The drive is Noticeably different. Pickup is strong and the braking is much crisper. No Navi , but very similar. Had anyone else had a experiance similar to this? What could cause the vehicle to feel so different when all the settings where the same ?
