I'm fairly short (5'5"), so I'm a bit concerned about seat positioning, especially the headrest. Based on the sports style seats, it seems like the headrest cannot be adjusted like it can on the C-class.

Can anyone provide any insight on seat/headrest adjustment?

One size fits all. No head rest adjustment. Do I hear corner cutting - cost saving ?

at 5.5 the back of ur little head should settle in the "hole" in the seat perfectly...

No, they are trying to make a sporty car. All racing seats are one pieces back and head rest. Look at the Recaro options seats.

You are not exactly non-partisan on the subject IT IS COST SAVING. All other AMGs, even the SLS have adjustable head rest. They are certainly "sporty" cars too.
The same with run flats and for the CLA45 - a fix it kit. To save the cost of a spare tire, rim and jack along with side benefit of weight and trunk space.
You would know this better. Do they give the new S550 a fix it kit too ?

30-40k they will be making sacrifices. The C-class is going more upscale than in years past.
