Memory for interior rear-view mirror?

I had a 2002 CL500 that I always regretted having to sell, so I'm glad to be back after just picking up a just-slightly-used 2006 CL500.

One question I have is that I could've sworn that my 02 stored the interior rear-view mirror's position with the seat memory but my 06 does not nor does the manual indicate so. Am I recalling this correctly? Did this unique feature really go away as some cost saving measure?

I don't have memory for this mirror in '05 CL600 either. Nice to have but gets broken easily. Have one in my 95 SL500 and had to fix it twice already. I guess anybody who's not familiar with the car just grabs it and starts turning each and every way...

Is that what happened? I vaguely remember a family friend showing me this feature on his W140 a long time ago. But I was disappointed to see it is no longer a feature in the S-class.
