What will they think of next
 
I just read this:
The "2005 Mercedes SLK offers an industry first electronic neck scarf to keep cold drafts away from passengers who want to enjoy the fresh air on slightly chilly days.
The optional system works by blowing heat out of vents in the head restraints directly onto riders’ necks. It’s so sophisticated it automatically adjusts for changes in the car’s speed and in air temperature."

Sounds nice -- if it works as billed.

That's been around for a while in Mercedes convertables, or at least I've seen it in their convertibles for a while now....

sounds completely unnecessary, now where did I put my dialing wand?

I don't think its been available in any other Benz's--I test drove an SLK350 a couple of weeks ago and the feature is nice--I wouldn't pay extra for it though.

Yeah I saw a Review of the SLK and they were talking about that.

Wish they had that available for the Miata. Anytime it was sunny and at/above 40F, I had the top down. Although, the racing seat did help a little...
