I went there yesterday..the new E coupe is hideous..i think. The sedan looks much better.

Now we don't have to spend and get a S Class to get all the neat stuff.

On MBUSA it states there are 11 air bags, but the online manual only shows 9 including knee airbags.

Some consider the curtain airbags to be 1 large airbag per side that cover f&r seats, other consider them to be 2 airbags per side. Not sure which one MB is using, but that is likely the discrepancy.

Actually, the count is 11 for USA. The rear side curtains count as 1 per side as they are a continueous item front to rear. The US version get the rear side door airbags as standard while these are optional on the ECE version. No discrepancy, the US actually has 2 more.

2 - Front (steering wheel and dash)
2 - front side door aribags
2 - front seat pelvis bags (outboard portion of the front seat bottom L & R)
2 - side curtains (L & R)
2 - rear side door airbags (outboard portion of rear seat)
1 - driver side knee bag
