Yea, it comes out way too much at the bottom. Looks like someone could put their drinks by the fog lights. That is horrible. They need to take that Benz in the back and let off a few rounds.

Maybe it's a C-Class "Guard" withe the Gangsta-option: front bumper allowing your bodyguards to stand on them during the drive so that they can be more effective in protecting you...

like in the 30's with those huge squared American cars full of suited/Borsalinoed gangstas, and the bodyguards on the side of the car with the roundish machine guns...

Yeah, Capone powaaa!

Yeah, such a spacious and statutory car... Perfect as a chauffeur-limousine isn't it?

Why I'm saying this is because my dealer told me that what I mean is only avaliable on the E class and that it is not possible to have this future on the W204 C class.

Now I'm really confused.

I think the hill start feature automatically pulls your handbreak when you're on a hill, and automatically releases it when you accelerate. this is different to the C-classes feature (forgot it's official name) where it simply holds your car for a short second or two until you accelerate. I haven't tried it before, but i think, on the C-class, if you release your break pedal on a hill for too long, the feature cuts out and you start rolling backwards? (that's a guess) But i think that's the main difference, that the C-class feature doesn't automatically set your handbreak for you..

The Hold function of the E-Class doesn't use the handbreak, as it's a mechanical one (the S and CL are the only Merc with auto-handbrake). Both he E and C use the main braking system for these functions.

Only difference is that the E-Class' Hold function holds the brakes the car till you throttle hard enough to make the car move, so you don't even need to let your foor on the brake pedal: brake the car till it stops, then brake bit harder and release the brakes: the car holds the brakes.

Whereas the C-Class only brakes one second so that your foot has the time to go from brakes to throttle without the car rolling backwards. You need to brake all the time.
