I dunno about Canada, but the US-spec C's are lacking major features as compared to the European counterpart. I don't quite understand why MBUSA is being such a stickler but not giving us the memory seats and other key features is kind of ....???!?!

I would go with the Bimmer on this one because even without the sports package it will more than likely outperform the C class and it's really not that bad looking. The only thing I don't like about it are the rear brake lights. My mom has a 325i and it's a great little car. Hard decision though... Good look buddy!
