Favorite Feature/Ability?
Hey everyone,
I was thinking about this last week and on my cars: 190E = Ability to have hot air from side vents and cold air from center vent, aimed at my face. Helps keep me awake in the mornings! 300D = Its steering and braking are excellent. What about you guys? Whats your favorite thing about your cars?

190E: I can drive it without worrying about shopping carts, dings, dents, etc. and I can gradually restore my 300D without worrying about putting too many miles on the diesel.
300D: Learned the habit of "looking back" at the 300D when it is parked, and making sure to get a seat in a restaurant that gives you visibility of it My 300D is more of a leisurely drive, keeps me out of trouble. My 190E is more of a spirited drive, keeps me ahead of trouble

The ability of going for a Sunday morning drive in the 250C down the "twisties" with the wife and ending up somewhere for some serious snuggles time.
 Something about that car gets her, ahem, "friendly".Of course when SHE drives we usually end up somewhere which serves adult libations which are needed as a tonic for my nerves. She is, shall we say, a tad more "spirited" when it comes to dropping 2 gears and accelerating through the switch-backs.
