Not that I rush into using the newest C# language features... But C# > 3.5 has some great changes that are very easy to learn and worthwhile. The new string interpolation feature is so good I don't even allow old-style string.Formats in code reviews.

String interpolation doesn't fully replace String.Format, because it does not provide a way to re-arrange where the placeholders go in the format string, which is important for localization.
