Thanks.

Yep, the new C-Class is already being delivered to dealers across the country. Perhaps in a few weeks I'll be able to drive one!

I don't think thats a Turbo. It looks like it has a thick strip rather than the separated LED turn signals in the Turbo. It's more likely a normal S or Carrera.

Here's a little foreshadowing from my review in a few weeks...

"Guys, I was totally blown away by this car! Oh my God! The BMW 3-Series has been officially dethroned!"

Seriously though, I can't wait to drive this thing. And I always try to be as objective as possible in my reviews.

You lucky devil, I guess some of us will still have to keep taking cold
showers until June

Lots and lots of pictures.

If I get to drive this baby, I'll fill up my 256 MB card with pictures and videos!

I'll drive one right after the official dealer presentation (31 March)

I already did my homework on the specs and the price for the options is not far off from what I've paid for the options in my Porsche

BTW: I love that truck - thanx for posting the pic

I'm afraid the first demo cars won't be equipped with the advanced agility package or the sportier suspension set-up, hence I'm wondering which of these two options I shall prefer when ordering the car (have to order in April)

I have an adaptive suspension system in my Porsche (PASM) and it's brilliant: you basically get two cars in one (kind of Jekyll & Mr. Hyde

) - comfy, yet providing enough feedback in normal (soft) mode and go-kart like in Sport-mode. Of course the MB system will be more focussed on comfort, but if it's a real adaptive system it also should enhance active safety (automatically switching to a "harder" damping when needed in fast turns etc.). On the other hand I'll use the car mostly on the Autobahn, where the stock suspension or the non-adaptive sport suspension might be good enough

Other than that: does somebody of you guys have some pics of the Black/Sahara Beige and Black/Cognac Brown interiors for the Avantgarde ?

You seem like the sporty type to me, so I would advise you to go for the optional sports package and suspension. I have high hopes for this car. Would you please be so kind as to post a review of the car once you've driven it? And if possible, pictures! DANKE VIELMALS!
