Gear selector

Will the gear selector really be on the column for all models?

I guess the better question is, where do you select the gear? It's not the touch control thing is it? Is it like the jag where you push a button? If anybody has a pic they could share, I'd really appreciate it.

All spy photos of the new C63 AMG indicate otherwise.

Wasn't quoting C63 AMG, just AMG version here in the UK the standard versions are SE, Sport mad AMG , C63 AMG is a different beast.

Its the stalk lever like the other Mercedes models mounted on the steering column, not a rotary knob like jag, nor push buttons.
