Road pics...from this afternoon in South Texas
I seriously though I was getting ready to pass a Honda or Acura....when I got in front the Matte grille caught my eye and I did a triple take. Actually really liked the matte wheels and grille on the silver...
The lady driving wanted nothing to do with me and locked her brakes up when I started taking pictures
One advantage to living near one of the few beaches left that we can still drive cars on- most of the cars in the US are sent down here for testing. Note the "Manufacturer Vehicle" sticker on the rear decklid.

It was a wide open section of texas highway, the car practically drove itself .
I did feel a little ridiculous as no one around me seemed to care or really even noticed the car...heh.

Well, it really depends on the package and wheels, so that plain white one with those wheels would not garner many looks, which was probably the intent.

The 207 appears at (Euro) EPC now. It had been mentioned before but EPC shows that the coupe is based on the 204, even more than the CLK used to be based on the C-class. It doesn't sound that strange then if it did appear before the W212. But in Europe the W212 will be in showrooms next weekend, and the coupe should follow within three months or so.

It is amazing though that Sindelfingen is closed for two weeks from today.

Anyone know if 4matic is available in the U.S. order bank yet? I was planning to get a C Class for my winter beater but now I'm leaning towards the W212 4matic instead.

According to my dealer E350 4matics will be arriving late fall/early winter just in time for the bad weather. E550 4matics will be available also but they have to special order them on a customer by customer basis, those will not be stocked on the lots like the 350 4matics.

Are you disagreeing with my post almost above or did you actually mean "most US market"?

W204-C350-2008
Never said first car sold at the end of March.As I wrote,mass release in the markets will be during this summer.Not the production.
That's why because or April,many dealer take order for July delivery.So you must ask your dealer for details,I don't know if this happened for all countries.
EDIT :As I travel a lot for business,this period I can also see W212 in the streets in mainland Germany,Suisse,Belgium,Netherlands,North Italy.These cars probably are first release.Also in Germany orders were available from 12 January 2009.
