2018 SLC300R remote start?

Apologies if this is the wrong forum. I just got a 2018 SLC300R and the Mercedes Me app doesn't have the remote start button.
Everyone at the dealer seems to think it should, and when I look for other cars around the web they all list it. Does anyone else
here have one of these cars?

Thanks

PS if this is the wrong forum, if you could point me to the right one that would be great.

This is the wrong forum, and I see you've been elsewhere. I think you need the SLK R172 area. Good luck with your search.

Yes, looks like this car is so new it doesn't have a place on these forums yet. Mercedes has retired the SLK and renamed it SLC. That is, according to Car and Driver.
Thank you for your reply.

Even if you are in the wrong forum, the issue is the same. Our 2017 SL's doesn't have remote start either and believe neither have the 2018 models...
