2008 Mercedes C350 Sport Sedan Special Edition

- Multimedia Package (HDD Navigation, Harman Kardon sound system, DVD changer, Voice Control)
- iPod Integration Kit

Each Special Edition C350 Sport Sedan also features the athletic new profile of the AMG lower bodywork and rear spoiler, sport sedan interior elements including gauges, sport steering wheel and pedals, as well as Black Birdseye Maple trim. The winning style of this new model combined with the exclusivity of the Special Edition for Saks Fifth Avenue’s KEY TO THE CURE leather interior, creates a striking addition to the Mercedes-Benz C-Class line. Larger than past C-Class models, with a greater emphasis on driving dynamics, comfort and safety, the new 2008 C-Class also includes an impressive list of standard equipment, including: power sunroof, eight-way power front seats with lumbar support, two-zone automatic climate control, Bluetooth connectivity, a central controller, and an LCD display screen. SIRIUS satellite radio, heated front seats, rain sensor, garage door opener, and power-folding and auto dimming mirrors are also included.

To further raise awareness of the campaign, Academy Award® winning actress Renée Zellweger has been named Entertainment Industry Foundation ambassador for Saks Fifth Avenue’s 2007 KEY TO THE CURE and will show her support by wearing this year’s KEY TO THE CURE t-shirt designed by Juicy Couture. Ms. Zellweger will appear in promotional materials and in a national public service announcement (PSA) to bring attention to this critical issue. The PSA will appear in major fashion and lifestyle magazines this fall.

Funds raised for Saks Fifth Avenue’s KEY TO THE CURE will benefit more than 50 charitable programs nationwide dedicated to finding new detection methods, treatments and cures for women’s cancers – all through EIF’s Women’s Cancer Research Fund. During Saks Fifth Avenue’s KEY TO THE CURE nationwide shopping weekend (Oct. 18-21, 2007), the Special Edition C350 Sport Sedan will be displayed at Saks Fifth Avenue stores. A percentage of Saks’ shopping weekend sales will also be donated to national and local breast and women’s reproductive cancer research centers.

Saks Fifth Avenue initiated its shopping weekend in 1999. Since then, the company has donated over $23 million to women’s cancer research and treatment organizations throughout the United States. Organizations benefiting from these funds include: EIF’s Women’s Cancer Research Fund; The Breast Cancer Research Foundation; the Cleveland Clinic; Boston’s Dana-Farber Cancer Institute; the Nevada Cancer Institute; and many others.

In addition to its commitment to Saks Fifth Avenue’s KEY TO THE CURE campaign, MBUSA supports select charitable organizations focused on educating and empowering future generations, particularly those who are underserved. Through DRIVE YOUR FUTURE: The Mercedes-Benz USA Scholarship Program, MBUSA and its dealers nationwide have provided over $3.5 million in scholarship awards since 2004, offering students who are the first generation in their families to attend college, the opportunity of a lifetime.
