Lol... I think it'd be a great feature if it actually worked. Does it have a soft-close trunk?

Nope, it's normal. It does have pretty much all of the features of my old X, I didn't want to give them up with the 3. However, not much comes from the 7er...except for the Logic7 stereo.

Well, DN...ya'll can be the TestBed for the new 330, j/k!
I'm sure it is a fineazz car and I am envious.
(Not sure what the key fob deal really Does/benefit in place of using an actual key...several cars, inc. new C6, have gone to that. Gizmos in search of a ques., but WTFDIK?)

Maybe I'll dig into the kidz inheiritance one of these years ;>)

Enjoy your new ride and give us some updates.

You mean the new style wiper blades? They are different. Haven't been able to try out their usefulness yet. Nothing beats the one arm wiper on the old 300E my dad used to have. That cleared like 95% of the windshield.

Well not just the new blades, but also the positioning of the wipers. The driver's side one looks very high and the passenger's side looks very low... Yeah, those one-arm wipers were really cool/wierd/amazing!

You can raise both up to clean the windshield though, unlike on the X...

I didn't know the C6 had that key also...it is a sweet ride. I do miss some aspects of the X, but I'll happily be the tester for the 330...
