Thanks.

Sadly, the 6-speed wasn't that great. For some reason the best Mercedes manuals I've experienced were the 5-speed manuals from the A and B-Classes. These are quite enjoyable, fairly direct and refined the way a manual should be. The 6-speed found in the C-Class, E-Class and SLK / CLK-Classes on the other hand is junk.
