Boot(trunk) remote release
Been meaning to ask this - when opening the boot/trunk remotely how much does yours open? Mine just pops open an inch or so. CLK opened fully which was much useful.

Only an inch
The SL trunk release only pops about an inch unlike several other models where the trunk fully opens.

Because of the mechanism of the convertible top the trunk did not open completly in the SL model.
