All-New 2025 Mercedes-Benz AMG CLE 53 review // Will you miss the V8?

[@MugatuJag]

So jealous, have a great time you two. You both look fabulous driving that Cabriolet💯💯

[@davidcarroll8735]

Wow, beautiful weather, beautiful car, and beautiful couple!

[@timcreelman3540]

Agree Zack. The throaty sound of my 2012 C63 V8 was priceless. I miss that.

[@myvideosrockthehouse]

Love the idea of having an in-line 6!

[@kvcooks814]

Man, it's a tough job but somebody's gotta do it, eh? Good for you two- enjoy your reviews and this car doesn't disappoint. Looking forward to your CX-50 hybrid review!

[@randyfine4535]

Could never decise between the C or the E class convertible for my dream garage, now I don't have to decide, I WANT ONE

[@timphillips4147]

Wow been sitting waiting for this one, what a cool looking car and in Spain, roof down 🎉

[@kinanhiaouassenan9314]

Great review. Fresh and fun. You look so happy and you convey it well to your spectators. Great car.

[@larrylowhorn1173]

Great review. Your enthusiasm says it all.

[@Ryan2Bhonest]

I’m so happy you both got to go to Europe to do this! Amazing ❤❤

[@calgarytroyv2793]

Tough job y'all have!😉you must have to pinch yourself (or each other) often that this pays the bills. Great video.

[@vodand12]

Hopefully the CLE63 will have the V8!

[@cbotten106]

It will.

[@Reko_89]

Beautiful car! Best new Mercedes Benz in YEARS! I love y’all reviews! ❤

[@iana36s]

One big perk to this career!!

[@jtsly1]

Looks like a fantastic drive!

[@danielmiedema5836]

Back seats are a great place for Zach's leather bag

[@Motormouth...]

True

[@randahlbeach]

Marbella in October - tough times for you 2🙂Its a stunning car at this price pt. That red roof makes it along with that blacked out package (wheels). 0-60 in about 4.3 sec is impressive. We will miss that V8 grunt 4 sure. Great review you 2. All the Very BEST!! Cheers from Vancouver Safe travels

[@toddstevens8506]

Not having a V8 is not much of a sacrifice considering it already has more performance than one can use on a public road. The grey with the red roof does look fantastic.

[@parenpi]

Very tempting to upgrade my 2018 C300 convertible for this! I am actually watching this on vacation in Spain, half way between Marbella and Malaga. I will definitely rent a convertible to try out these roads…. Great video.

[@jamiep61]

In my opinion a great 👍 looking Cabriolet 😊

[@regwilson7652]

Love the car and nice with awd. Nice summer car for Andrea

[@alioscopy-glasses-free-3D]

Great review… a nice car - but MB build quality has certainly reduced since I last owned an E-Class (2001), and why do they keep using that (crappy) shiny black plastic in the latest models?! They can't be listening to customer feedback, that's for sure. One last note - are you sure that people were taking photos of the car… rather than Andrea in her summer dress? 😎

[@alanwarren8365]

It would be more useful if you tried getting into the back seats with the top up and rear side windows up. Getting into the back seat is obviously a different experience with the top down. Otherwise this is a great review. Thank you for including length, width, height and wheelbase - very useful.

[@timothyburnside3229]

Great car and fantastic review!

[@michael1326]

Nice car, but I don’t love the ‘wet putty’ color

[@StuartVallance-s7c]

Wet putty is a good descriptor. I call it Primer Gray because it looks like they didn't finish the paint job! Yet this seems to be a popular color choice these days with a lot of manufacturers. Definitely not for me, though, no matter the brand.

[@robocop581]

That's called Crayon color for Porsche

[@tradukilor2]

Or fighter jet gray in a Mustang

[@billurban1581]

Michael, you reminded me. Putty and paint makes a carpenter what he ain’t.

[@frankeich6136]

AMG CLE or LC500 convertible? Great review. Enjoy Spain

[@10OF9OFBORG]

Oh that’s sound good! 😂 The dashboard looks good! Oh you not speaking Spanish! Just kidding! Love your hair flying! 😉 What muscles Zack? Just kidding! Great show Andrea! ☕️☕️

[@davek4442]

I don’t like the dash with the non integrated screens.

[@jazzjokesjalopies]

I’d like one gray and one red, please. 😊

[@robocop581]

Next Review: Ford Fiesta in Detroit

[@Pooh2-s4q]

Acres of expensive luxury gloss black!

[@ilord112]

Thanks for sharing how lovely the weather it was in Spain ! If I may say I have lost my interest in MB and BMW designs… I have not paid any attention to them for a long time. This one the exterior is fine, but interior…. Porsche seems like the next but I hope Porsche can stop it soon from losing its glory in design!!!

[@tyunykim6535]

Wow❤ msrp will be confirmed surely? I hope the price will be more cheaper than m4 strongly 💪

[@cbotten106]

I miss the V8 already. At least it has an I-6.

[@drewyager4020]

If you don’t have a V8 a straight six is next best

[@sandram8761]

You should show more of your journey! Instead of showing you guys quickly drive around somewhere and say you're in Spain. Well show us! lol

[@stea2494]

Beautiful, love that colour. Spain….. EXCUSE me!!! Your life must be so miserable to fly to spain to try a convertible and make a youtube video car review😂🍸🍹

[@jtoth1234summer]

Life is a Cabriolet

[@geothermal7999]

I LOVE IT!!

[@tomdrummy4984]

I think Andrea likes it ! 🤣

[@JimAllder11]

I am SO jealous.

[@johnnylau77]

Surprised mercedes use so much piano black in the centre console and high gloss on the dash inside on a convertible. It will reflect so much sun ray into the eyes and face.

[@tradukilor2]

This or a 2021-23 AMG E53?

[@mubirudenis809]

Does it come with air suspension???

[@serkanister3620]

Just curious, what's the email receiving rates between you 2?

[@Jorge_Magallon]

Great video. That exterior looks beautiful and timeless. However, that makes that tragically soon-to-be-dated dashboard into an interior that will seem uncool in 3 years at best…like a 3-year old smartphone.

[@TacoRob72]

Love the color and dark wheels !

[@joeboo7019]

Please mention these car company brings wagon we want wagon Toyota mazda Honda etc

[@realrockrolla]

Red top every single time

[@phillm156]

The E53 has a much better dash, interior.

[@ka1133]

Now I can say without a doubt without even watching to the end and I do apologize for that, but this car is totally out of my league. Probably price, wise and practicality, wise and desire wise. And unfortunately, all too many of the cars that you review and I appreciate that that’s your business just to review all kinds of vehicles. But again totally out of my Range and interest.

[@alexsummaria371]

Review the evoque please

[@JURASSICEDITS09]

They need to get away from the melting jellybean style It's horrible.

[@stea2494]

I can’t unsee that anymore, it’s true looks like a melt lol.

[@mdnoman9386-p9y]

❤

[@billurban1581]

Zack: man, it hustles.” Wow, only 12 less horsepower, only 110 pounds feet less torque (but two more cylinders), than my Volvo S60 recharge without “overboost.” And the AMG requires “overboost.” Of course the S60 doesn’t have the “snooty, look at me” value of the three-point star but then again I only spent $56K and get three times the mpg. Andrea, after an hour or two, said this Mercedes would be “super comfortable” for a long road trip, and she’s surely correct. But Car and Driver found the S60 “was a favorite for long voyages” DURING THEIR FORTY THOUSAND MILE EVALUATION (Nov 2021). "I'd gladly sign up to drive ANOTHER 1300 miles in the S60, Dorian said upon his return.” Icing on the cake : the S60 is out of production, it’s a collectible. Your consolation prize, an XC60, almost as good.

[@joeboo7019]

Wagon wagon wagon wagon bring it back for 2025

[@richh7608]

Nope. If in the market for a convertible I'd get a MX-5 ....save $50k+ and avoid the typical huge depreciation of Mercedes.

[@darrellhorner500]

I'D RATHER HAVE A MIATA MX5... AUTOMATIC!

[@billurban1581]

And save a few bucks :^]

[@billurban1581]

Curiously, there’s no mention unless I missed it, of Mercedes being in the bottom third of the JD Powers 2024 reliability survey. Perhaps not as important as the “look at me” factor?

[@dons6556]

Group thinking, everyone is keeping up with the Jones by offering this UGLY color! Mercedes, STOP nickel and dime the customers! For a $100k car with options, NO VENTILATED seats as standard? 🙄

[@alanwarren8365]

It would be more useful if you tried getting into the back seats with the top up and rear side windows up. Getting into the back seat is obviously a different experience with the top down. Otherwise this is a great review. Thank you for including length, width, height and wheelbase - very useful.
