Question CLK Owners 3 Wishes!!!

Question to all CLK owners/enthusiasts....What 3 things or features would you like to have in/on a CLK? Not Aftermarket Mods necessarily but factory features or technology. Okay, it doesn't have to be limited to 3 but let's go.

Good One WNYC How the hell could I forget Push Start??! Easily one of the best features in cars today.

Presafe is when the Seatbelts tighten up in the event of a possible accident also the windows and sunroofs close up andseats may even move to the center of the car away from doors, as is the case with the new S Class.

From Mercedes International Website:

The PRE-SAFE® sensor systems give the vehicle an "instinct" for danger. In critical situations, such as emergency braking or skidding, precautionary measures can be activated to protect the occupants, then reversed if and when the danger is past.
The findings of the Mercedes-Benz accident researchers show that in two thirds of all accidents, there is sufficient time between the critical situation developing and the accident itself to allow advance occupant protection measures to be deployed. If the accident does occur, then the vehicle and occupants will be well prepared. If no accident occurs, the activated systems can be restored to their original status, since they are fully reversible. A system which works on exactly the same principle - the automatic, sensor-controlled roll-over bar - has been fitted to the SL-Class Roadster for many years.

Some of the information used for triggering PRE-SAFE® advance protection measures is supplied by the sensors of established and familiar systems like Brake Assist or ESP®, which detect critical situations such as skidding or emergency braking at an early stage. PRE-SAFE® then triggers the reversible belt tensioners on the front seats, while the front passenger seat and the individual seats in the rear are adjusted to a position which will be more favourable should a crash occur. And if the sensors detect severe oversteer or understeer which could potentially be followed by a roll-over, the sunroof is automatically closed too.

Alcantara Roof and wheel would be nice. Brooke Burke wouldn't be too bad either. Hell, I wouldnt mine sitting in the back if Beyonce and Jessica Alba were up front.

Beautiful CLK, I hope she's not too much of a headache. If so pass her to me I'll straighten her out. Good point on the Free Maintenance and repairs. A Kia/Suzuki warranti would be great.
