Sirius Traffic Subscription?

How's it going guys, when I was researching this car I thought I read that it included a lifetime subscription to the traffic service? If it matters I got a 2011 C300, I'm sure I read lifetime traffic somewhere but I can't find any information on it now so I wanted to check with some other people who bought them.
I looked at allot of cars though so maybe I'm thinking of the wrong one?

Thanks

I subscribed to the Sirus radio + traffic service, and i do not plan on renewing the traffic service. its quite useless and often wrong.

Yeah, I think it's more of an issue of it updating to slowly. I thought it was included with the car though? I'm not sure if I want to pay for it or not

In Australia the traffic updates are free for the life of the car and there's no real end user agreement/contract/sign-up process as far as I remember.

Have a look at our driveaway car prices in Australia and I'm sure that'll scare you away from the land down under (if you are from the US).
