Mercedes C32 AMG Review - The fun but often forgotten supercharged V6 AMG - BEARDS n CARS

The C32 AMG is a dirt cheap entry point into Mercedes-Benz AMG ownership, but also one which relatively few people talk about, and some haven't even heard of.
And with a similar power output as the more obvious V8 powered C55 AMG, is this thumpy, almost hot hatch esque approach to a sports saloon worth your attention?
Let's head out on the road in this C32 AMG Estate and take a look...

I have a C32 AMG estate. It's on 209500 miles and still goes like the clappers. I've timed it using a GPS app and it doesn't do 0-60 in 5 sec, it does it in 4.5. Standing 1/4 in 12.3. They're very reliable. I've just taken mine to Germany and it easily does considerably over 155+. Economy is very variable. In heavy urban traffic it'll do

Nice

Hi, Pete I just bought one it’s a 2002 AMG C32 with 66,000 miles paid $10,000 us it’s amazing osbsidian black metallic it was a$640.00 us option my build was $57,000 US. It’s a sexy beast love all AMG if it has the AMG badges it is cool to me. I love cars and the M3 BMW were also a desire but the AMG seemed better build quality and now u can buy these for pennies on the dollar.

[@JAMAL12382]

They need to make this again.. I drove a C43 Coupe today in-line 6 and the performance would be great in a C-class estate. Much prefer it over CLA-45 4 pot.

[@padjeflipmossie]

C43 is a v6 but sounds like a in line 6.

[@padjeflipmossie]

​@@Chevvygone132 it is a V6 Twin turbo in the C43 and V8 Twin Turbo in the C63.

[@padjeflipmossie]

@@Chevvygone132 Yes, you are correct :). I actually would still like to have a C36 once in my life, but right now I have 320BHP and 700Nm in a C300e Estate from March 2021. Not the sounds, but still the performance and luxury on a very high level.

[@Ian-oe9wp]

I have a fascination with Merc wagons lol my dream is still a cls63 shooting brake

[@ArcanumMortis98]

Agreed. We had quite a few in the Merc shop where Im an apprentice at. They are looking very good.

[@Mushroom_x218]

I have one, but not the 63amg version 😅

[@jimmyb269]

ive had mine 5 months silver estate c32 , love it, put many new cars to shame on the local bypasses, but ive never seen over 21mpg, the worst was 7mpg so now i'm just happy to get into double figures :)

[@HSGAutomotive]

Nice haha

[@peterhert9350]

The fuel consumption is Low , in comparison with a Porsche 911. I Drive mine in Germany mostly fast over the Summer. Look at the dampers ( changed mine to Bilstein, Koni). High mileage is not a Problem, its an m112. Its my favourite Car to drive ( we own a E55 with 500hp although) . In this year only a 605hp Audi S8 passed me. Self maintaining and repair ist easy and cheap. Oilchange every 10tkm (5w40 or 5w50) is recommended.

[@HSGAutomotive]

Nice one

[@gorillazbenz1364]

Curb weight is 1535 kgs. That is an awesome car, I do have it in sedan form with some performance and handling modifications. Absolutely phenomenal, will definitively keep it.

[@ArcanumMortis98]

Would love to supercharge my C350 AMG Evo (coupé - as an manual) :/ In my opinion the 3,5l sounds better. But nevertheless - the C32 AMG is awesome!

[@hatorihanso1238]

I have on that has a smaller pulley wheel , and is remapped, i gues 400 hp +++ I removed all the emblems, I have killed some bmw and Audis the sleeper I love it❤️🇳🇴❤️🇳🇴😂👍

[@HSGAutomotive]

Nice, haha

[@koolumar101]

man i love you so much! nobody ever talks about the c32! i have had 4 of these so far! and i dont see myself ever without one or wanting one! this thing sits at such a sweet spot like no other! and if you put maybe 3k into performance it'll give the stock E55's run for its money all day!

[@HSGAutomotive]

Omar Nice 👌👌

[@1bosst]

Dont kno why but my c32 keep shutting off recently

[@koolumar101]

@@1bosst first check for fuel pressure, fuel pump relay, check the battery terminals. Any lights on the dash?

[@hugoteixeira5867]

try the C30 Amg diesel, fantastic car!

[@juandlr9726]

Love it, bought last year and I’m in love with it, only problem the miles per galón. Such an underrated car, they are super cheap now

[@HSGAutomotive]

Nice one, glad you enjoy it bud. Definitely a lot to love. I'd recommend checking out my 1999 E55 review as well, especially if you ever change your car. It's like this car on steroids.

[@hatorihanso1238]

Yes mine is tirst, the fuel goe right tru 😂🇳🇴 I love mine❤️

[@padjeflipmossie]

It helped a lot. I bought one in black, with a black and red interior. What a smooth machine and this 5 sec 0-100 is going way to easy. I do have a wishlist already. Smaller pulley, ecu tune, lowered suspension, tainted windows, isofix and a audio upgrade. The labrador I don't need 😉

[@Mashmarriner69]

Only thing about this I don't like is that front grill. Why people take the bonnet emblem off and put a stupid big emblem on the grill always blows me away. It looks wank.

[@HSGAutomotive]

Yeah same here tbh, it looks kinda cheap. Suits something like a C63, but not a Chrysler era car

[@Mashmarriner69]

@@HSGAutomotive yea. Definitely. It suits the coupés. As that's how They came. But not the saloons.

[@h1k0usen13]

C32 is an amazing car. Speaking of performance wagons, it'd be awesome to see a review of an Audi S6 C6 Avant from you, or even the RS6 if you could get your hands on one. Can't go wrong with a V10

[@HSGAutomotive]

I've been trying to source one yeah

[@AiYunaEverAfter]

Really love seeing these videos on these underdog cars that are often forgotten or never experienced. It reminds me of a review of cars from Gran Turismo 2, which had a TON of cars like this that never returned in GT games. Though I'm not sure if this car was ever in any GT

[@HSGAutomotive]

Yess, probably what inspired me way back to love those kinda cars

[@rileys8741]

Great review. I own a C55 and love it. It’s so understated

[@HSGAutomotive]

Nice one. Quite a few AMG variants in the C-class lineage. C32, C36, C43, C55 etc
