For me it's definitely the rims that come standard on the 4matics...such an eye sore compared to the rest of the car. They are my only complaint.

What about you?

A sportier Throttle Control Unit. I HATE the notorious MB acceleration lag.

More horsepower. 300hp minimum for the C350 please, so we can at least have a chance with the other cars in this range.

so many things need to be changed.

from an owner with a 2009 model (even though some of these issues are addressed in the 2010)

more power for the 350
heated and cooled seats
a cheaper keyless go
standard backup camera with navi

For 2.5k, the MM system better be touchscreen. The iPod cable sucks - not impressed with quality and steering wheel controls only?

More power would be nice, although if we wanted more power we would buy a 335.

I don't have a C but the two things that are holding me back are...more hp in the C350 and leather as part of one of the two premium packages. The C350 I am looking at is around 46k but no leather.

I agree a larger engine and US 4matic C350 Option would be a good idea

A C350 4matic or even a C550 4matic for the US...

Supercharged V6 would be nice too...
