Just ordered a 2010 C300 4Matic
New options are Rear-view camera, keyless go, and optional twin five spoke amg rims.
Two gripes i have,
OPTIONAL REAR CURTAIN AIRBAGS
Comes from South Africa!
Mercedes should not offer airbags as an option! Safety features should be standard, not optional!
Also when i'm spending about 50k for a German car, it should come from Germany!
Anyways, I can't wait to take delivery, hopefully in August.
Mods that i'm planning:
window tints
clear bra
laser interceptor
C63 grille
Video in motion
hidden V1

The Keyless go is very nice. You dont actually use the key, you just have to have the key. Grab the handle and it opens the car. Push the handle gentlely and it locks the car. Also if you leave a window or all open.. you simply keep you finger on the sensor and it closes all windows and locks the car. So no messing around when you hands are full. Works great!

In the office building where I work, I'm literally sitting above the parking lot (the building is on big columns)... so my car is directly under me (and my key). No one's getting in without that darn it.

lol, in Canada we've had the 18' AMG's since 09 :P
I wonder why we get so much stuff... can't wait for the rear view camera (I'm getting a 2010 white C350)
And don't forget to post pics in the Official Picture thread!

Rear view camera is not much more than a cool gimmick/toy. My wife's Mazda has it - but she much preferred the parking sensors she had in her previous vehicles. The "fish eye" cameras used in vehicles really distort distances - you will find that you won't really trust the camera.

Probably 'cause our list prices are 10k more than US, and our dealers are not discounting as much.

Anyway, I was test driving a Lexus ES350 and the BUC wasn't fish-eyed. Just a regular lens, it was useful too.

oh i know that other makers use keyless entry where you dont have to use the key to unlock the doors. i just thought the C class as a more rudimentary version where you still need to use the key, but can just push the button to turn it on. my mistake
