C63S Noob Questions

Hi all. Am considering buying a C63S sedan as my daily driver. Rented one tonight and am enjoying it a lot. Few questions for owners and yes I did search first.

1. Is the auto high beam feature standard? It's stupid but really useful where I live.
2. Car I rented seems lowered so it may be on aftermarket suspension. I checked the strut tops and they seem OEM but who knows. Question is, do you notice a substantial difference between comfort and Sport+ with regard to firmness. On this car, it doesn't feel like much if any change.
3. The dash seems a bit buzzy on a 13k mile car. Assuming that's semi normal for a firmly sprung car?
4. Are the AMG sports seats available with heating?

Thanks!

It's Adaptive High beam assist.
Have to make sure you have this, even in some country you picked Driver's package(INTELLIGENT DRIVE PACKAGE), Adaptive High beam assist still not come with it, you have to pick it separately. Different country has different package set, it may come with some other package, so just make sure you have it
I saw a car come with INTELLIGENT DRIVE PACKAGE but does not have Adaptive High beam assist.( stupid build).

Sorry, but you are mistaken for Canada.

In Canada, it's NOT standard on the C63, but it IS standard on the C63S.

The OP's questions were regarding a C63S.
