traction control standard?
Pet peeve: people (or dealers, both do it) who list every standard equipment item as an "option" in their ad for a used car. Seriously, I see bulleted lists of "options" including ... oooh POWER WINDOWS! Pretty sure those are standard on a 2003 *Mercedes* dude.

Anyway, one I'm not sure about is traction control. Was this standard or an option for 2WD w210 wagons? What about ESP? Can anyone provide a list of *actual* options? I could then assume that anything else is standard...

Thanks for the info!

How about answering the question?

I said BOTH dealers and private parties do this... not just dealers.

So, is traction control standard or not?
