I received the 2011 that I ordered to replace my 2008. It's fine and pretty much the same except I got the AMG wheel, sport shock, and paddle shift upgrade, which seemed like a great deal and really is for $1500.

The only change from the 2008 that I don't like and don't understand is that there is no button to turn off (or turn down) the stability protection. I'm sure there must be a secret way to do it for the factory dyno testing at least. Does anybody know it?

thanks, Matt

The ESP off -button was never enough for dyno testing. I guess a 204 would have the same dyno mode as older models but if it is something else than dyno testing, you should not do it (are you driving the car on a track or something?).

Yes I'd like to track it. Also I'm just an old school guy and like the control sometimes. My experience over the years has been w/ Porsches and Corvettes and other cars that you steer w/ the throttle.
