C-Class W204 W204 minor revisions?


The Mercedes-Benz C-Class (W204) is the third generation of the Mercedes-Benz C-Class. It was manufactured and marketed by Mercedes-Benz in sedan/saloon (2007–2014), station wagon/estate (2008–2014) and coupé (2011–2015) bodystyles, with styling by Karlheinz Bauer and Peter Pfeiffer. The C-Class was available in rear- or all-wheel drive, the latter marketed as 4MATIC. The W204 platform was also used for the E-Class Coupé (C207).

Has anyone noticed the new chrome accents on the glove compartment latch and control stalks? New metallic panels instead of black around gear lever and new wheel center covers instead of the chrome star.
 
???? Do you have pics? The glove compartement always had a little chrome strip in the W204! Around the gear level, it is black on the Classic, wood on the Elegance, Alu on the Avantgarde. And the gearlevel is different in the Classic too. I think it is that.
Otherwise I don't see, if you had pics?
 
Just use the 360 "colorator" on MB's website. As for the glove compartment I am not sure you are talking about the horizontal chrome strip on the dashboard or the little vertical strip on the actual latch. The horizontal strip was always there but the little one on the latch wasn't on the early examples I saw.
 
new wheel center covers instead of the chrome star.

You can have actually buy the wheel center covers. They have the basic silver star wheel cover, the chrome star cover and the classic Roadster design in blue. You can also get one in sterling silver with chrome star, I haven't seen those yet.
 
Hi tmehanna,

I just noticed the chrome finishing you mentioned, they are on my car, and honestly, I did'nt pay that much attention to the earlier cars.

One interesting point which may be a minor revision is the absence of wind noise from the door mirrors in my car, The car I test drove at my dealer surely did make some noise. MB may have made minor revisions in this area.

I am also aware that there C180K (which will now be a 1.6 Ltr) and THE C200CDI are to designated as 'FE' FUEL EFFECIENT models, which completely different door mirrors and minor alterations to the radiator grill in order to enhance the cd numbers. check out JESMB's site.
