No ventilated seats option in C450?

So I'm going through with my dealer with a C450. I was debating between the black with red stitching or red leather seats when I noticed that there was no way to have ventilated seats with the black seats. I asked about it today, and apparently there is no option for ventilated seats for US C450 models, similar to the C63 and C63S. Can anyone else confirm this? Pretty bummed out that they took this out of the interior package but it's still in the C300.

Hmm ok thanks for the build. I'll ask if I can use a prebuilt order sheet and customize that. If the sheet already has those packages and options in it, is it possible for the factory to remove any of it?

Yeah, they can pretty much change anything...

There should be a way for your dealer to add the same packages as that build and see if the vented seats show up. Maybe he can start with the exact same build to see if he is on the right track and then remove/add from that to get to the options that you want.

No way. This is such a great feature o_o

It's still available on the C300. That seems like a slap in the face.
