The UK brochure doesn't mention this, only a 7 year anti-perforation warranty, which is about average these days.
Like a few others have said on this forum, if it is reliable, I intend to look after & keep my 300c for quite a few years. In the past I have resorted to aftermarket anti-rust wax under the floor & in the sills & doors to keep a car corrosion free, but many new cars are galvanised, or have alloy hoods, doors etc.
The last thing I want is in 7 years time the rust to start big time!
I know I have seen a few ropey / rusty looking E-class Mercs at 7 or 8 years old, although I think I saw recently that Merc now offer a 30 year warranty on bodywork.

Mercedes has major problem with build quality the last 4 years, but the steel of the 300 is galvanised. That does not say a lot actually as I believe any car these days has that.
