MY14 W204 Highlights

I visited my SA again today trying to determine the difference between the current MY13 W204 and the one available this fall in US which is still a W204 but MY14. I am interested in the C350 Sedan.

He gave me a copy of the Ordering Guide which has a MY14 Highlights page.

Basically only three changes -

1 Standard grille with black painted lamella (from C250 Coupe Sport Pkg) code 956

2 Split-folding rear seats are standard

3 18" 5-Spoke (Code R36) replaces 17" AMG 5 Spoke (784) as standard wheel on C350.

Everything else seems to be the same. If I order now I will receive a MY14 W204 in November 2013.

Are there any other differences that any of you have heard about?

It's the last year for the W204, I wouldn't expect many significant changes.

For last year they usually put in something unique to attract buyers because once the new model releases no one will buy them. (the picture i posted above is not w204)

What's the picture of the 2014 E doing here? To show off what the new standard rims look like?

Scan of MY14 Dealer Order Guide - Changes

Here is a scan of the changes page for the MY14 W204. It includes a picture of the new 18" Wheels to be used on the C350 Sedan. They do not appear to be AMG wheels but do look very aggressive.

Maybe this question belongs in another thread, but what is known about the 2014 C350, or will it just be discontinued in favor of saving the planet?

2015 C250 Coupe
Nice to see the painted grill standard. I actually have that same coupe grill with black fins on my 13 C250 sedan and it looks awesome. Sounds like only coupe get it but they should also put it on sedans.
