I know a guy who's had one since I can remember....it's mint and he drives it like a normal car. He knows what it's worth and not one kid has ever messed with this car. I like to think its out of respect for the car but I know it's because the owner it 19st and 10%>

I only last week bought aC43 wagon. Not driven it much as sorting some bit first. Leaking rocker cover gaskets seems they suffer with this. A d detailing it inc a 2 stage machine polish. Mine is metallic blue with black leather my central console dash and door caps are black carbon look. Bose stereo, Sunroof. I really like it. Think I still prefer my W126 500 sel. But time will tell.

I had 2 1998s & both needed transmissions replaced. Didn’t matter with the maintenance. I gave the silver one with 2 tone interior as a present & kept the other that’s Obsidian Black with black interior. I put E55 engine plus under pulleys & ECU tune. I put close to 300K miles on it until I sold it. I sob when I see pictures of it. I miss the C43s.

I've got a c36 and c43, love the 3.6 as that was a true AMG engine before Mercedes took over AMG and I feel it has a better AMG kit/appearance and just as fast. I'm Breaking a C36 AMG at the mo which is going in my W124. It's an addiction oh and I've got the ultra rare W210 3.6 AMG. Awesome video thou bro, might start doing the same
@baqadoesauto92193 жыл бұрын
Hello, I agree. I had a chance to acquire a C36, but something dragged me towards the C43 AMG. I agree with you 100%. The C36 has a better AMG kit, and it looks nicer aesthetically. The W210 3.6 AMG is special. Looking forwards to your video 😊

I love mine. The 5.0 0-60 is believable. I saw another W202 comparison that clocked it at 5.2. I had a 91 MR Turbo that was usually tested in the low 6's, and a 99 M3 that was usually mid to high 5's. This car definitely feels faster than both. Mine is silver and on some forums people call the silver C43s the "silver bullet" because they believe the silver ones are faster. I swear this car has two ECU modes. Most of the time it feels the same. But every so often it seems to flip to another mode where it is noticeably faster. Independent of atmospheric conditions. Not sure if it is my perception or what.
@baqadoesauto92193 жыл бұрын
Hello Chris, You described it so well. I agree with you 110%. I drove my car 2 days ago, and o boy it felt so much faster. I don’t know if you have noticed it with your car, but my car is much faster at night.. lol.... My friends think I am crazy.
@jeb4193 жыл бұрын
I can also attest to this, I have a 1999 C43. I believe there are two modes with the ECU, one for spirited driving and the other for more slow driving. I would assume it would detect this based on how you push the pedal.
@noahh914 Жыл бұрын
The facelift W202s with the 5-speed automatic have a "learning" gearbox as far as I know. Depending on how you drive it it will shift earlier, rev higher and so on. So when you push it hard for some time it might adapt to your driving style.
@chrisb8052 Жыл бұрын
@@noahh914 Thanks for your input. Yeah I think it does that but what we are discussing is the output of the engine. Which of course the transmission behavior could affect the feeling of. I don't know if you have one but per the above comments there really does seem to be a "hidden" ECU program.

For old classic Mercedes where could you get the replacement part? For example I could not get the oem mono wiper assembly for 1991 300 E w124. Greatly appreciate if you can help
@baqadoesauto9219 Жыл бұрын
Hello @rdd5990 ,usually my MB mechanic sources all the parts for me. But you can join W124 forum, and you might come across a member who is selling a oem wiper assembly. Or visit a local junk yard. Here in Vancouver we have Ace German Used Parts LTD he usually has hard to find parts. Maybe you can give him a call. I hope it helps 🙏🏽
