2018 Mercedes C43 AMG -- Is it a real AMG?

[@ahmedabdelmagid3109]

I leased this car back in Dec 2017 and it’s still a head turner, big time .

[@shad3128]

Ive never turned my head at this car and i see at least 2-4 per day commuting lol its like a q50.... plenty of older heads leasing them and using on day to day commutes, nothing on the exterior stands out in traffic or a parking lot...

[@kristiankonov]

@camirocz yo, I am about to buy one and was wondering are there any issues I should worry about? Personally me I am not driving a lot, working home office and barely using car. I want to basically throw some money and enjoy something. You got any idea how much you spent on maintenance over the last few years?

[@jamesjdm]

Twin turbo means gaining easy power from a flash/tune which is always a huge plus! My bet is with a tune this car will easily best a C63

[@albertthescientist7450]

If Mercedes AMG put a AMG Badge on it and its a high performance car then it is a real AMG! (With a tune can easily beat a C63 s !!)🔥🔥

[@camirocz]

Got one with the performance exhaust i absolutely love it. I put up a clip of the sound it makes on my channel. By the way the shifts are super fast if you have it floored in sport or sport plus .I also have an Am g gt s with dual clutch and this one shifts almost as quickly .

[@vtestdrive]

Awesome collection! Thank you for the comment.

@@kristiankonov I had it a few years ago and no issues . I am a dealer so I don’t keep them long but I loved it .

[@theckasher4452]

buying this because 510hp is too much for me, a bit overkill, im planning to daily drive it lol not go broke😅

[@camirocz]

Having launch control has nothing to do with a dual clutch transmission.

[@Sal-zx6hs]

Can't review this car without the amg performance exhaust. It's a must have

[@vtestdrive]

Salco A, there’s a review coming shortly. We’ll have the same one with the AMG performance exhaust and we’ll do a comparison. Stay tuned!

[@stephenmurray9890]

Bro it sounds sick without it Too. And it’s not like the pe makes a difference in hp. Some people want to be sleepers, You can have the obnoxious crack And pops, All I care for is the power.

[@Sal-zx6hs]

The PE has a on off button so the car be asleeper when it needs to. I would be happy to give up 17hp for a much much better sound. Either way enjoy the car

[@stephenmurray9890]

Salco A that’s fair bro can’t argue with your preference at all. Different strokes I guess! I am the minority that doesn’t need that loud pops And bangs I guess. None the less, the pe does sound great !! Cheers brother

beautiful car

[@nezarbenomar2058]

I just did a test drive of this car at Mcmasterville and I’m very surprised at first it feels like a basic car but once you switch to sport + it’s a different beast I think I will trade my m240i tabarnak 😂 i can see that Mercedes are putting more money on the material it feels very luxury but BMW is more on the performance. What would you do if you were in position stick to m240i or switch to c43 ?

[@redbat5084]

Did you switch to C43?

You forgot about the C30 CDi AMG, the 5-cylinder diesel AMG.

[@vtestdrive]

I don’t believe we’ve got this one in Canada. Diesel models are very limited here sadly.

[@trihardcx6743]

@@vtestdrive Yeah it was brought out for the European market, super rare car. Anyway, nice review! I'm looking to pick up a C43 Wagon with the Performance Exhaust.

[@vinhsanity]

Umm dual clutch will make it faster at shifting? Isn’t this car equipped with Mercedes multi clutch technology?

[@gabriel.alexandru]

c63amg vs c43amg... 3.0L v6 vs 4.0L v8 ?“no replacement for displacement” all of us know the milk is white!

it’s real

[@DJ_EP007]

😂😂😂.Thanks for the review

[@abergelmiky]

Amazing!

[@f4f471]

it IS a true AMG but just AMG lite.

[@vtestdrive]

Gilly PP. after spending a full weekend with the car, I have to say that my opinion has dramatically changed. This car was definitely a real AMG! Your statement is exactly what came to mind. Sadly I didn’t spend enough time with the car while I had filmed the review to be able to do a constructive decision. Thank you for your comment.

[@teonguyenhong]

@@vtestdrive hi there, just to confirm about the hand-built engine. So I heard from other channel that it is built by hand, not of a single engineer but of a group that mass produce this engine. Say every c63 or other amg got hand built by a different engineer w their signature on it. Can you clarify this?

[@mewwwmrrr9790]

How does it feel driving this car on the Quebec bad condition road lol

[@vtestdrive]

It was pretty terrible and nerve racking! Lol

[@greggonzalez8090]

Sorry it is an AMG !
