Fellow user Jonathan (QQ) and I compared our Canadian C320s today - both are new silver C320s; his has about 3500 km on it; mine 6500. A few interesting things emerged:<p><p><li>My gear lever has no red LEDs there - his does!<br><li>My menu allows me to set a top speed - his does not.<br><li>Both engines make a bit of rev-dependent click-clacking noise.<br><li>On both, we've had a number of minor issues. Nothing big. On mine these have included a rattle (broken bit in door replaced), wind noise (door seal replaced, almost OK now), a stuck roof switch (fixed it myself), etc.<br><li>Bose sound system is MUCH better with CD (his) than without (mine)<br><li>But Bose is not as good, apparently, as on the older C models.<br><li>We got different tires.<br><li>We have both had the problem that the red radio- and air back lights go from very dim to very bright, without intermittent levels, and sometimes not always right (too dim or too bright for the ambient light).<br><li>Closing the hood sounds tinny - same on both.<br><li>I had been told I had leather but it looks very likely it's not full leather on the seats! Door sides are leather but seats only have the inserts, it appears. Just checked my bill: shows no leather. <br><p><p>So anyway - we're no doubt seeing "rolling" production fixes and changes here. Fascinating: I recommend all of you to do the same, compare to another C to spot those subtle differences.<br><p><p>See a couple of today's pics here:<br><br><li><a href="http://neti.mvw.net/mvw/pics/c320b/2xc320-e.jpg">http://neti.mvw.net/mvw/pics/c320b/2xc320-e.jpg</a><p><li><a href="http://neti.mvw.net/mvw/pics/c320b/2xc320-g.jpg">http://neti.mvw.net/mvw/pics/c320b/2xc320-g.jpg</a><p>Cheers,<br>Michael<br>
Re: why do you post the same articles in both forums? Every reads both....
1. I was not aware everyone reads both: the posts do differ so I kind of doubt *everyone* reads both.<p>2. I figure it does no harm. Only a few bytes of info go onto the net.<p>Michael<br>
You had mentioned a while back that you noticed something I had also. When you accelerate from a stop, there is a delay. Did the other car have this same behavior? I'm wondering if they'll eliminate that.<p>-Scott
