My favorites are the brake hold feature, the interior, ILS, and the looks of the 19" wheels.


My rear occupants love the comfy rear seats and the pano roof!

Ha, me too. Plus after my botched back surgery last May I wouldn't be able to do anything with the ladies even if I caught them. Stupid doc killed half my wiener nerves and left me having to pee out of a tube.

Getting old sucks. But we do finally have the money for really nice cars and stuff. (When I'm done with that doc I bet I'll have money for some REALLY nice stuff )

I like the brake-hold feature... and the blind-spot avoidance in the side mirrors... hate the eco-start feature... but overall, i am very satisfied with the car so far....

Yes but I didn't know it existed until months after I had the car. My W204 coupe didn't have any. Not that I would use it anyway but thought it was nicely designed.

By far for me is the Airmatic. The ability to have a lowered, sportier ride when I'm in the mood and then a softer, comfortable ride when I have passengers. Also makes for great insurance going over bumps, uneven roads, parking garages, entrance/exits etc. Would definitely opt for this feature on my next car. Ultimately I think the 360 degree camera would be number 1 for me but unfortunately it wasn't available for my build date but I see so many benefits in having something like that.. o well, maybe someone can do a retrofit and let the rest of us know how it goes.

Definitely digging AirMatic, although I had to build the car to get it. That plus replacing the run flat tires with traditional Ultra High Performance All Seasons gives the car a very serene, creamy ride quality that's perfect for every day driving. I've also been using the Eco mode quite a bit. Shifts more smoothly and quietly.

That plus the custom Burmester/Audison/JL audio set up makes for some really enjoyable cruising. I do still put her in hot rod mode from time to time, but I really like the ability to choose.

Disregard my transmission issues but I like the rear view camera update over my C350. I love the interior and the Distronic Plus feature.

Distronic+ tops it for me.

Yeah! For me they are perfect! The padding is firm (high density foam), and I love the fact that even though these are bucket seats you can still adjust the side support (for ribs and legs), adjustable thigh and lumbar support and on top of that it has 3 heating levels. I have not experienced any discomfort on long trips at all (6 to 7 hours).

Cheers

I skipped them because after taking a test drive for 1 hour, I noticed how much my thighs started to hurt and also my back so they were to firm for me and everyday driving.

I read all your favorite none of the above mentioned the HANDS FREE access TRUNK.. it so useful to me open/close trunk with the use of foot and you can also lock the whole car from the trunk using the lock button.

I don't really depend on blind spot assist but still one of my favorite too one of the best safety feature of my car and of course the exhaust valve SWITCH i love the best lol!!
