How do I know I have Bose?
Hi guys,
I've been lurking around this forum for awhile now.....heck, I've even owned many MBs.....but seems the C32 is garnering alot more enthusiam.....which is why I chose the C32 over the M3 w/SMG.......just picked my silver C32 w/Xenon,Bose and sunroof. Now my question....how the heck do I determine if my car DID come with Bose speakers.....not that I don't believe what the "sticker" is telling me.....but my BMW had "harmon kardon" imprinted on every speaker....and my past SLK had "bose" written on the rear speakers behind the seats. Please reassure me:p
By the way, any issues with the speakers working with an Alpine GPS system? Dealer tells me that if I fiddle with the factory's Fibreoptic system.....any damage to the sound system "may" void the warranty? Any truth to this?
Many thanks!
Anson

had no choice with the Bose.......as the C32 was the last silver they had available in Toronto with the sunroof and Xenons.....plus the gray two tone interior.

picked it up from mississauga.......got $1900 off.......but a long story follows: picked up a new ML 350 three months ago.....beautiful car with the new inspiration package(ie ML500 look-a-like).....but the thing had numerous electrical and mechanical glitches within the 3000kms since I dropped it off.......the "straw that broke the camels back" was when my wife, along with my 3month old daughter in the back LOST steering control.....well....not total steering control, but all the steering fluid leaked out (attributed to a "broken hose") and was resorted to manual steer......scary when you least expect it(especially with a new 2000km MB) and when making a sharp turn!!! So a long and often frustrating conversation between MB Mississauga's MGR and MB's VP of customer relations took place for several days........and now I have the vehicle that I ORIGINALLY intended to purchase.
PLEASE AVOID MISSISSAUGA MERCEDES!!!!!!!!!!!
I went to purchase my ML because my wife and I were shopping in the area. But I purchased every one of my past MBs at Markham Mercedes.......GENEROUS DISCOUNTS and by far THE BEST customer service.....especially AFTER the sale(which is really THE most important) where service comes into play......always got a loaner ML or C240 when I needed it.....PLUS discounts on service!!!! And no I don't work for them
If you need a C32.....ask for Tommy Tsang and tell him I sent you.....I already "prenegotiated" for you

Anson,
Thanks for the info. I already picked up my C32 a few weeks ago from the Thornhill dealership. I bought a ML430 from the Markham dealership in 99, and I wasn't too happy with the salesguy I dealt with there, so that's why I picked the Thornhill dealer instead. Sorry to hear about your ML350 though, and I hope you have better luck with the new car. I only have about 1500km on mine, and I am already hearing some strange sounds coming out of the engine and the air vents.
