Smile 2014 C300 4matic: New Owner Questions

I just got a 2014 C300 today and loving it! A huge upgrade to my IS300 (and nicer than my old c230 coupe)

I'm planning on doing a few mods to it (tinted windows and blizzak snow tires for the moment). Are there any good lists of mods out there (cosmetic or otherwise)?

And what else should I know about the car? It has a little over 20k miles so I'd like to know what issues I should look out for in the future.

On my old c230, my car "learned" how I drive and I can't remember how to reset it. Anyone know how to?

Last thing: I haven't tried it so see if I hate it or not yet, but is there a way to disable the ECO start/stop thing? I have a feeling I'm not going to want to use it and I would be happy if I didn't have to press the button every time I start the car.

Thanks!!

most common changes include wheels and headlights. Unfortunately it is not possible to disable to the eco start stop. Enjoy your car.

I was thinking about changing the headlights to some bi-xenon projectors, frankly I'm surprised and not too happy that it wasn't a standard thing at this point. I'm seeing that DEPO seems to be the way to go.

And it came with the 18" 7 spoke AMG wheels so I'll stick with them for a while since I kind of like their look, but next year I might buy a new set (I like the look of some of the Vossen's on here) and use the stock for snow tires.
