Model year differences (2008-2011)
C350 model year differences (2008-2011)
Hi all,
Currently driving a BMW 3-series coupe and am looking to trade to a pre-owned C350. Looking to keep the price in mid $20k's so I'm looking at model years 2008-2011. I have been researching the car and am trying to find the little differences between the model years to help narrow down my choices. I've found info relating to standard and optional equipment for the different years at Yahoo Autos and Consumer Guide Automotive websites however based on some forum posts, I found that some of the info on these sites is flawed. Does anyone know a reliable source to find these differences? Or possibly someone has this information and could post it up (or already has and could point me to it). As an example of what I'm looking for, check out this thread:

This thread contains exactly the type of info I'm looking for (assuming its accurate). I've searched extensively for comparisons between the model years and the thread I linked to above is the only one I could come up with. Thanks to anyone who can help out!

From what I've seen, the engines are the same in the C350's from 2008-2011. If that's incorrect, let me know. I understand that the car remained generally the same during those years; the small changes to the standard features and options that changed are what I'm interested in learning about.

There are some minor differences across those years, such as turn signals on exterior mirrors, fog lights, dash board light switches, etc. I don't remember which year has what.
