Im looking at buying a newer Mercedes but am struggling on what features to get. i know that i'm going to get a 2015-18 c300 but i have some questions. i really want to get heated and ventilated seats but i have heard some bad things about them and wanted to know others peoples opinions on them. also if there are any other things you hate about the car please let me know i want to know before buying

Heated seats are great! I'm experiencing cooled seats for the fist time and, well, not a must for me. It feels like more of a problem than something good. Although they may help when it is wicked hot out in a remote start situation.

When I had my C-Class I regretted not having intelligent lighting (HID/LED headlights, keyless, active cruise control, etc.

Given the years you are looking at I think you probably want to check in the W205 group.

Heated seats always get great praise and ventilated ones always end up a disappointment with Mercedes. I am yet to read about someone very impressed with MB's ventilated seats.

to me, heated leather seats, COMAND system, camera and park system and even more with the new models the AMG sports pack
also a good performance but yet low tax and fuel (like the old 250 or new 300 models and if its an option i'd take massage seats

Keyless Go is a really cool feature I wish my Benz had.
The last two rental cars I drove had it - really convenient.

Harmon Kardon without a doubt.

I have a Mustang GT now. The cooled seats hit you in places where you just aren't used to feeling a breeze. But I think they are good for remote start car cool down.

I would make sure it has ILS. It's a crime Mercedes is still pushing halogen systems in so many base options in the 21st century.
