i dunno, i have a manual but when i turn the car off the doors automatically unlock. id assume on an automatic it'd be the same, or unlock when put in park. check with the dealer and see. it'd be weird if there wasn't.

2014 Mercedes-Benz E350 4Matic Sport
I don't know about you guys, but I think Mercedes have done something to improve the steering for the 2010s because it feels way better than it did before.

I have an '08 and I have to admit the steering is a bit too light for my taste. Last week my dad had his car in at the dealership and we got a white 2010 C300 4Matic as a loaner for a day, and I have to say the steering feels heavier and the overall weighty feel made it a lot more fun to drive. There definitely wasn't a Dynamic Handling package because it was a 4Matic, I know that for sure. Anybody else experience the same thing or am I imagining things?

If they didn't, then maybe it's the difference between 4Matic and RWD?

Another thing I like about my C350 than my 3-series is the fact that I don't see myself coming every 15 cars or so..lol. I am sure it will change in a couple of years but for now few new C-class MBs on the road and almost none C350s. On the other hand it seems in my neighborhood every other car is a 3-series.

I agree, I have not seen another C350 since I bought mine last fall. They are all C300 and mostly 4Matic. Lots of 3 series here too, it is nice to have a unique ride for a change!

'09 C300 4M
Welcome aboard. Owning a MB is something special indeed.
I've test-driven MB, Audi, and BMW and I've always had or felt the warm and fuzzies in the Mercedes.

Enjoy your C300 - I know I do every day.
