Nice! I didn't know the C300 4Matics came with the Sport PLUS package. Does it have the larger brakes like the C250 Coupe and the C350's?

Do you have the HK Logic 7 system? Are you streaming BT audio? I just got out of a 2013 rental car with the HK7 system and streaming audio from my iPhone was astonishingly terrible. I knew BT streaming was low quality but I know now I'll never be able to use that feature when/if I pick up a 2013+ C in the future.

Nice! That was the reason I didn't get the C250 Sedan with the Sport PLUS. I didn't understand why it didn't have the brake upgrade. Now, I might have to consider trading for a C300 4Matic.

The current W204 as they are offered with those new wheels and whatever else for 2013 are BEAUTIFUL.
I've been VERY critical about M-B IMO flubbing design after design, and destroying some cars into haphazard messes after facelift, but man are they in a zen-like focus with the W204. They keep making it better and better and have really gone above and beyond in how the new ones are offered. Those wheels really compliment the facelift look and tie everything together very well.
Is that a certain added option (with those wheels)? Like the "Sport Plus" or something? I've been seeing more and more of them. If so, what changes are all included?

2013 C300 4Matic Sport
Looks identical to the one I picked up last month. Spec'd the same it appears.
To date I'm a bit disappointed in the auto-wipers, start and stop when they decide to, not when the rain slows down. Most fun when they stop for 5-10 seconds especially at night.
Secondly. the hyper-sensitive auto-beam headlights - security lights on the sides of highways and street signs reflecting my headlights cause the low beams to switch on. Fun when out in the middle of nowhere on a dark road. At least it isn't flashing any oncoming cars and dimming when it sees them. It just needs to tone itself down.
