On my 300E you can do it with the electric kickdown switch by flooring it off the line, or by shifting to the lowest position. On my 420sel you can do pedal to floor, or drop to lowest selector position then click it to the right, this one must be completely electronic whereas the 300E is both valve body and electronic is my guess.
I would be interested in a 1st gear start for both of them.
