Alright:

Great Things:
Camera
Electronic Lumbar Support
Leather Wheel
Mirrors
All Season Tires instead of merely performance tires :P

Bad things:
WHY DID YOU GET RID OF THE 3 ZONE CLIMATE CONTROL? My friends woulda liked that >.>
And it could be cool, because no other car in the class has it... (3 zone)

What does anthracite colour look like? (I'm assuming it's a colour, since anthracite is coal... coal armrest, lol)
is it going to match the black interior? or add nice contrast?

blinkme 210: Thanks a lot. I was waiting for the camera confirmation before making my move. My Dealer was not helpful at all in getting details about the 2010 model difference. He also strongly denied the existence of backup camera on the 2010 model. He does not need to be courteous or helpful. All his W204 models are sold out.

Rumour is that the camera is $900 based on the fact that the reverse camera on the ML is $900. I think that I will probably do the DIY for $200 or whatever it is.

You're welcome. The moment my dealer informs me of the MY10 pricing, I'll start a new thread.

My dealer was nice enough to inform me of the rear view camera change for MY10, even though I was dead set on purchasing the showroom MY09 C350 at a little bit of discount. Now I have an order for June production MY10 C350 =)

So what does anthracite look like?

tanktube67

I like new mirrors

vic viper

Very dark grey.

RLE

As do I. So much so that in another month or so, my '08 C300 will be equipped with them. Power folding, heated and self dimming (left) with the blind spot segment. Body color, natch.

Cheap? No.

Blinkme 210, Thanks. Please post the MY10 prices whenever possible. My dealer is still not aware of the MY10 changes. They will never know until a customer like me (but not me) walks in with the information. If it were not for the various MB Forums which I followed religiously since 10 years I would be as much uninformed as any salesman in my dealership. I am sticking to this dealer for its proximity to my home and the excellent maintenance and service. Once I pass the nightmarish experience for ordering the new car, the service department is there to make it up with good support. They provide a courtesy car only for their own customers which is enough incentive to swallow that sour pill while purchasing the new car. The other dealerships around the Montreal area do not provide a better “New Car” purchase experience. I am well placed to know that because I am at my 4th MB in 10 years. Most of their sales force is made of old dinosaurs previously schooled with bad manners at GM or Ford mills. While BMW went out of their way to train and modernize their Sales Consultants in Quebec in order to meet the new standards set by Lexus, MB salesman here are still decades behind. But MB cars are so good and BMW have nothing close to the C-350 4matic which I am buying for my wife.
Did you get any discount for your C350. I got a discount of $1000 on list price and I intend to get more before signing the contract, probably next month. The MY10 was quoted to me $50,400 before discount. Same as MY09. PP is also same at $4,600. But then my dealer quoted MY09 prices for a MY10 because it is much simpler and less tiring than going back to MB for more info.

But is it true that those mirrors have not been there already earlier (Canada or the US)? Our car from early 2009 has them and they've been there on cars before this one.

Interesting - there is no mention on this list of the Parktronic system - which was installed on MY2009 from Feb. production onward, while the rear motorized sunshade was deleted. I took delivery April 1 and that's what I found on my car.

jean7of9

Parktronic is part of the Premium Package Option in Canada. Here is the list for the 2009 PP:
C350 Premium Package
# COMAND APS with hard drive-based navigation
# DVD changer
# PCMCIA interface for MP3 playback from memory cards
# 4GB MP3 storage
# Panoramic sunroof
# KEYLESS-GO
# LINGUATRONIC voice control
# PARKTRONIC

The 2010 PP is not released yet by MB Canada.

vic viper

Holy crap, how much is the PP?

Those upgrades alone would cost 70.000 SEK or 8750 USD here

peabers

Wish my MY'08 PP had come with Parktronic...

Vic Viper -- on my C350W4M the PP was a ca$4600 option package.

jean7of9

The 2009 PP Price is still CAN$4600 (US$4131) for all listed items.

blinkme_210

Sunshade has been discontinued. I actually love the sunshades, but my dealer said that MB Canada discontinued it because customers didn't like it, or were not using it.

benyl

Has there been any update to this?

ismeto

indigolite blue is nice

len56

do you have prices yet?
