The C43 AMG may not be the "real AMG" that C63 fans desire, but putting things in perspective, a new C43 willl run circles around a C63 from just a decade ago. Want a better spec than that? It's less expensive than the 2009 C63 when it was new as well. Combine that with a level of exclusivity that the C43 exudes that isn't found in Audi's S lineup and I think the "baby" AMG might just be the best AMG ever. (Until we see the new A-Class AMGs in person that is).

Nice review and comparison to the other cars Alex. I live in New Jersey and just bought a C43 coupe July 1st. Absolutely love it. Couple of notes/corrections from your review though: 1. The c43 does come with blind spot monitoring as standard equipment. 2. The “divider” in the trunk is actually a collapsable cargo crate.

Hi. Just found this channel. I really like how you present. I am coming from a 2015 335D Touring and was 99% set on the M340i Touring, and then this weekend took the C43 AMG for a drive and fell in love with it. At just over 40, I feel like driving a Merc sends a strange message, even though I know "this isn't your grandfathers Merc. Other than the Estate, the key things about my 335 that I love are the adaptive steering and suspension (I wouldn't buy a car without it ever again), the torque, which because it's a diesel is insane, and the interior including the infotainment incl the better stereo. The c43 had a great interior, stereo was AWESOME, performance was fantastic, including especially the steering, but I haven't had a chance to handle it hard around corners to see how it would compare to my 335D which I consider class leading. I found the Audi a bit twitchy if cornering on an uneven surface (repaired potholes). You gave it an A+ for handling, I was wondering if you could elaborate on that more? I am really torn because to my mind the M340i makes more sense on paper, but in my short test drive I didn't fall in love with it, the way I did the c43 (though some of that came down to the poor bmw dealer experience I had.

My choice is and was C43. If I'm gonna pay a price I may as well get what I want with a quality interior and great styling and of course performance. Wireless charging pad below heating and cooling controls underneath lid. Excellent review, waited awhile for this one. Those seats coming with the AMG drivers package. If you don't get those then you get the sport seats which are way more comfortable than the ones you had. My opinion your 10yr ago reference not exactly complimentary. If you noticed on highway you mentioned you preferred comfort mode. Whole video on highway you were in sport. Camera button also accesses automated parking system.

I gotta say this is a very nice Goldilocks middle ground. If you want more than the base C class high 6 seconds 0-60 but don't need or want that AMG price/speed, then C43 is great for most people. I live in a big city and a C63 would NEVER get to stretch it's legs, unless I am trying to get to the next red light as soon as possible..

I almost went for a c43 but once id driven the larger more GT e53 amg coupe, it was the clear winner for me, at 6foot 3 and wanting to sometimes take a couple of 5 foot 6 /7 boys with me, but loving the coupe looks. Id love to see you review this car......

I own a 2020 M340i xdrive and considered the Audi RS3, S4, and S5, Genesis G70 3.3, Volvo S60 T8, and Benz C43 AMG. I’m still not sold on the Tesla Model 3 simply because it’s so new. Build quality as you’d said is an issue, it can get pricey, handling is not on par with some others, and I want to hear that engine sound when I get on the pedal. From a cost perspective the Genesis is a lot of value for the money. My BMW cost just over 65k which isn’t cheap, but feel for what I got it’s less than the C43 comparably equipped. I must mention I also own a 2017 Audi S3, which my son is now driving. The S3 is a performance bargain at 50k, I only complain slightly about the rough ride quality of the Audi. Especially in dynamic mode. Thanks for the in-depth review. If I’m getting a C-class it would be the full-out C63 and that sweet engine.

I'm interested, when you say you considered the C43, did you test drive it? I am in the same boat coming from a 335D xDrive Touring and looking at the BMW M340i, which on paper I loved, but felt the ride was pretty hard. The C43 I drove this weekend I was blown away by, more than I can recall for a long time. I am still really torn, both are probably great cars. The Adaptive Suspension and Steering of my 335 is exceptional, I am worried about the Mercedes not meeting it for handling...

How many front passengers have their seat all the way back if they know there is someone sitting behind them? I am average height and in many cars, I wouldn't even reach the front of the footwell if I had the seat all the way back. Why not just adjust the front seat to a very tall person, say 6' 4" and be done with it?

I have a C43 AMG Cabriolet. It's a lovely car. It gets lots of looks and comments. It's nicely quick and agile. It can get 30mpg on a road trip....BUT....the tires and wheels are VERY fragile. I have had 5 or 6 flat tires and 3 cracked wheels in the first 25k miles. I have had several other cars with low profile or run flat tires and not had this problem under identical road conditions. I feel uncomfortable taking it out of town because of the possible inconvenience of a flat tire or cracked wheel. Anything more than a 2 inch pothole is a huge threat to the tire and wheels on this car. Very sorry to have to report this because I love the car.

C180 (1.6 from previous gen), C200 (with the new 1.5 litre and 48v system), C250 (same 2 litre as C300 but detuned), C300, C43 and C63. Then diesel is C220d (with their amazing new 2 litre diesel) and C300d with the same diesel engine but more power and torque. I'm still hoping the offer it as a C400d with their new inline 6 diesel.

@@pfeamg9658 The diesel engines are so good though. If you could just experience the new 2 litre diesel or their new inline 6. So quiet. So refined. So economical. And oh so full of torque. I know someone with an E220d and they were averaging 53 mpg at one point. It's insane. :-)

SDav21 oh I hear ya and agree. But over here it’s either electric or gas (unless you are looking at trucks to tow stuff). Jag makes a couple of sedans and I think Chevy still does as well. That’s about it lol. So even if we wanted them we couldn’t order them as they aren’t offered here.

One thing I am not sure about is can you buy a C class (2015 to 2017) Mercedes that is not an AMG but looks exactly like an AMG with the premium package and can you save money by doing this as compared to buying the C43 AMG? I saw a 2017 C class Mercedes convertible C250, 2.1 D with the premium package and it looked identical to the AMG car but as far as I understand this was not an AMG. Is this correct?

Why do you compare to models 10-15 years ago? Vehicles are evolving so quickly year after year that even a 5 year comparison is irrelevant. Plus, the 2017 C63 is also rated around 3.9 seconds because it is rwd.

C43 is a great car, and to my mind, the best in the class. The Tesla just looks so boring and having to worry about charging if you drive any real distances makes it a nuisance. And no sound, which is a killer. Drive should excite all sense and that includes our ears. Nicely done MB.
