C300 Luxury Sedan 4Matic: Questions



Currently researching with a view to buying this. Have two other
makes/models on the shortlist (BMW 328xi and Lexus ES350), but it
looks like the Mercedes is the winner for me by a very short lead.

Question 1:
I want a built-in Nav system. The old suction cup on the windshield
has got to go. Unlike the BMW, where you can get the Nav system as a
single option, with the mercedes, it appears that to get one, you have
to get the Multimedia Package, which includes the 6-disk CD/DVD
changer that I'm not interested in. I am getting the iPod Kit
installed, and I have no interest in CDs. Is there any way to get the
items priced separately, or do you have to get an all or nothing
package?

Question 2:
It says that the car comes standard with Bluetooth connectivity. My
Razr phone is one of the compatible phones. Do I have to do anything
else, or does the Bluetooth system simply connect to my phone, which
will then allow me to make hands-free calls? How about charging the
phne. Do I have to plug in my own connector into the car's power
outlet?
