I just noticed it, but is there two turn signal stocks on the left side of the steering wheel? I assume one of them is for the wipers?
Ah, Interesting. Does it get in the way when you try to signal? I love cars with quirks

Once again, see it in person before you judge. When I first saw pictures of the new C-Class, I thought it looked like the new Sebring with a three-pointed-star badge. When I saw it in person, it took my breath away. Competes with the E46 3-Series for the "best-looking German sedan ever" award, in my opinion.Actually, I HAVE seen it in person, and I still think it looks too much like the Spectra, especially the shape of the grill and headlights. Even the mesh in the lower grill opening looks the same. Not very distinctive at all IMO, and the shape of the greenhouse is quite generic with the exception of the slightly bowed beltline.Acres of gray plastic and leatherette (which is nothing but gentrified VINYL) = boring in this price range.

In the over 800,000km of MB seat time I have, the cruise lever never bothered me. Some CR test drivers got quite flummoxed by it, thought.
