Wait til the temps drop. I know, I have one. But I would never pick it again. Looks aren't everything.

Options questions on 07 E350 Sport
Planning on purchasing new 07 E350 Sport soon. Very excited, although it will be for my wife. Looking through brochure and online, can the 4zone climate control be ordered and also the ventilated seats. With the standard climate control are there vents in the rear seat area (just w/o controls?)? Appears only available on the E550 which is not in the budget. Also, we have very narrow garage door openings. Apparently there is no option on the E for folding power mirrors. Thanks. Looking forward to contributing. Sorry if I've missed this somewhere.

1. There are rear vents for the passengers in the rear, just no controls.
2. It seems as though the only sort of options on the seats for the Sport package are the Heated Seats. No more active ventilation nor 4 zone climate control.
3. Steve @ MBenzNL can get you the power folding mirrors, though I am not sure about the 2007 mirrors since they are very different.

thx for the help
Thanks. Hope to purchase (or order if needed) in the next month or so. It will be loaded with about every option but the wood wheel and panoramic roof. My wife's Volvo C70 has been a great car until this last year and we no longer have confidence in it. If the dealer can make it work, I'd like to slide out of my XC90 and into a preowned ML350 or 500, probably the old bodystyle because of price. It's been a disappointment from the start, but the dollars will determine that one, as it is much newer and has several years left on the warranty. At the time I purchased my XC90 the new ML wasn't out yet and I couldn't wait, so I took a chance on the XC, as the old ML lacked some features I was looking for. Neither is perfect, I know. We went to look at the ML after having her car towed to the dealer again. She surprised me after driving the ML and both of us liking it, that she wanted to drive the E350. The image of a Mercedes sedan had put her off, but after seeing the sport package and then driving it, she was sold. Thanks again for your help. Look forward to contributing. I've found these and other forums very helpful. Happy Holidays.

Just posted this on another post but it's easier to just paste and click. I definitly do like the wood. However it doesn't get all that cold here. :

Was speaking with a friend in the midwest yesterday and told him I'd make him feel bad because I was driving south on PCH at the time, 65 degrees and looking at the ocean. He says "swell", they were getting just getting hit with an ice storm that afternoon. Wood is good.

I've had the wood wheel since Dec '03 in all weather... cold isnt a problem he in NY. However I once parked facing West & when I left work the wheel was scalding hot. I moved my hands to 9 or 3 O'cloch position till the A/C made the cabin comfortable. I still like the wood wheel better, but that's what makes Horse Racing...
