Ventilated Seats

It seems ventilated seats will not even be an option on the C63. They are not on the configurator and nowhere on the options list or standard features list. In many MBUSA pictures, I have noticed the cooling seat button empty.

This is all with the standard sport seats, not the AMG performance seats. Its not there either, but I kind of understand why it wouldn't be. I don't understand the basic sport seats. Benz is horrible with the little things people enjoy.

Am I missing something or is this ridiculous?

They work really well in my dads gl550. IT would be nice to have them but I could care less.

Very disappointing! My little sisters 2008 Lexus is250 has ventilated seats. I was really hoping for this option.

Funny thing is that I inquired about it when ordering my 507 and one of the sales men said that Mercedes in general doesn't like ventilated seats as they believe it's bad for you (yet heated seats are way worse; for guys especially)

Yeah. I'm bummed about the decision not to include them. They make a diff and I love them in my CLS.
