I traded my two cable connector into the dealer's parts department for a three cable connector that includes usb. This was soon after I bought the MB and the difference in cost between the two was affordable and worth it to get the built-in usb functionality. Your sales person might even be able to arrange for a no cost trade in given the cost of the CLS AMG.
Hey, I got the two cable version also.
I need the version with the USB port.

Mine landed 2-3 days ago in Brunswick, GA, I'm days away from taking delivery. It'll be an extra day or two, for the installation of a Passport 9500ci, which involves removing both the front and rear bumpers.

Best of luck with yours!
Ordered a system today with an option for the common interface so that this sytem will have four M47 jammers up front and three Escort jammers in the back.
I also purchased the speed camera license plate option that I am told lights the plate (glare) when the sytem senses a speed camera is activated.

I have a similar system in the 458 Italia and no tickets as of this date.

Hi everyone. My first post on this site.

Outstanding looking car!!!
I'm about to put in the order in for the CLS 63 too. Should get it early jan 2012. Just debating about colour. Still undecided between the silver or the white one.
Have a silver e350 coupe at the moment and looks very cool. not sure to get same colour or change to the "louder" (in my opinion) white one.

Happy for any input guys

This is my present ride. It's waiting the arrival of the big brother (CLS 63)

As i said i'm just debating for the colour. Silver again, or white.

Come on. Be brave. Be the first to get one in Cuprite Brown.

Brown, and tapered at both ends. What else could you want?
