That is frustrating in a sense because the red top depending on the body colour/paint selected really elevates the vehicle.

2025 CLE 53 Cabriolet
As discussed previously , the current red top is a different red to the Patagonia and I assume MB feels it's not a good look . I think the same may apply to the red seats.
I'm going for the red-black roof combination or black-red roof combination and one of the black/red interiors .
I've also found that recently the configurator hangs up when trying some of these combinations and won't reset - maybe because I'm in Canada !

Will your car still be a 2024, or has it been changed to a 2025? My build date is at the end of August. I would prefer it’s changed to model year 2025 as long as there are no changes to my configuration.

My build date is for 7/16 and my dealership said mid September for delivery. So end of August is not too far off depending on where you are in the country. The main question is whether our cars will be 2024 or 2025 models.

Could anyone with a CLE 53 please check for heated seats on your final order sheet? This is the one with the standard and option codes listed along with a purchase order number. Heated seats are supposed to be standard, but they are not listed on my order sheet with all the other standard and optional items. The heated seats were listed when the dealer configured the car, but they are not on the final order sheet. My dealer is looking into it. I hope a forum member can help.

It details all the packages and features on your car if it is already built. That way you can verify that it has everything you had wanted.

No VIN yet. Build date is scheduled for the end of August. I do have ventilated seats (code 401). The description of the ventilated seats on the MBUSA configuration site describes them as including heated seats:
“Ventilated seats are a luxury you'll soon consider a necessity. Three levels of heating and cooling ventilation are offered. By gently circulating air through perforations in the seat and backrest, ventilated seats can help keep you cooler and your clothes drier during warmer months. Reversible fans can help draw heat away for brief periods. On cold or damp days, using both the ventilation and heating together can circulate the seat heating more quickly, to help keep you warm and dry.l

As for the sound and video quality I believe you are correct. Definitely correct about no audio and most likely correct about the 720p quality.

The car has to have Augmented reality for the dashcam to work. It’s a special separate camera. If you don’t have augmented reality, no dashcam.

There is a setting where it reactivates recording at ignition. So that is not a problem. If I remember I will look at the settings in my C43 as it is the same platform as the CLE and update.

I just went out to my car to take a picture, a very crappy picture, of it to show it to you since I forgot to earlier. You’re welcome 😂
Edit: Also idk where you’re from, but it’s very much likely that it may be a privacy issue if you live in Europe as to why it doesn’t auto record. I’m in the US and we have no rights, so we can definitely auto record hahahahah.

Nope, it wasn’t an update. I’ve had my car since June 2023 (just hit a year, yay lol) and I always had the setting turned on to where it auto records. You go to the settings after pressing on the dash cam app then toggle it on.

Do you know if the digital key is an option through the settings anywhere? I didn't see it in the CLE owners manual but I know it's on the E-Class. Just figured it would be avail through the settings somewhere since it's the newest MBUX.
