Thanks. Glad I saved you all the typing work!
I agree with your last sentence. They seem to have wanted to offer more sport to make the drive more fun but at the same time, they wanted to (or needed to) remain loyal to their target market and what they expect in a C-Class.
At the same time, the
Elegance and
Avantgarde trim levels and the availability of a sport package (suspension) should cater to individual buyer needs. Those that want a really sporty C-Class will tick the
Avantgarde box and perhaps add the sport suspension. I can't wait to testdrive these two trim levels of the new C-Class.
