Beautiful car. Love the heat vents underneath the head rests. Hate the dash though, way too many buttons...makes it look cheap.

^ Completely agree about the dash. The flat face dash with that many buttons reminds me of Chrysler out of the early 80s. I am very surprised to see that this car doesn't have push button start with an intelligent key as well.
Exterior styling is very nice as is the rest of the interior sans the dash.

Doesn't this Benz have some sort of "iDrive" system that helps get rid of all those buttons on the dash? I agree, there are too many, will be confusing, and require looking at the dash (and away from the road) to make changes when driving.

I'm confused with the 250 CGI engine mentioned in the last paragraph.
I know that engine is a 1.8T 4 cylinder with 204HP in Europe and has nothing to do with the 2.5L N/A V6.
Does the writer imply that the 2.5L N/A V6 will be replaced with the 1.8T 4 cylinder?
If it is the case, then I'm getting a C250 for my next vehicle instead of a C300.
