[@Bladeeee]

Thank you guys excellent review

[@masjake]

I’m a BMW fanboi, but Mercedes V8 is way way good and beyond than BMW’s V8 that sounds more high pitched. But I think Mercedes old V8 (6.3) is more better than the new Bi-Turbo 4.0L engine

[@eazyfire145]

6.2

[@zhaoyangxie]

Well the next c63 (if it’s 63) is going to be a hybrid with a 4 cylinder

[@LarryKippings]

Adrian K I personally prefer the engine that was produced in between the two. The 5.5ltr V8 twin turbo. Best of both worlds. Not as fast as the 4ltr, but a superior & classier sound. I don’t like the “crackles” on the 4ltr. The 5.5 produced an unbelievable down shift grunt, and sometimes on the up shift too.

[@miks564]

Mercedes needs a 4L V8 to get the same peak power of BMW 3.0 inline 6 and Alfa's 2.9 V6. Yes, it deliver more power on lower revs due to the natural torque advantage, but that also means a heavier less efficient engine overall. It makes the GLC heavier than its competitors and less agile. That's not important in an SUV, but that's also not a desirable trade for the performance model.

[@filmbenjamin]

[@pookie3093]

I really like their videos. The Stelvio is a cool SUV that looks really good, as well as the Guilia. But to pay all those $ for clicking and cracking sounds on the inside would bother me bad. I would choose this AMG over that easily. Even after the years go by, the Merc will still be well-put together because of its fit and finish. I've seen several Stelvio vids that have quality concerns although the engine is tops!

[@timonxDlol]

We had non amg glc and well its just the best allrounder. Its not perfect at anything, but really good at everything. Putting a v8 in it has to be glorious. It drives porty, sounds insane, its not super large but easily large enough, its not super comfy but comfy enough, its not a great offroader, but good enough fora bit of offroading. Its just an insanely good allrounder and probably the best suv and allround car in its class. There is nothing that it does really bad. And while there are a lot of cars that are better at some things there are no cars that are better at everything in that class. And if you dont need the height get the c class estate or if its too small get the gle 63. but in its class the glc is the best. What you have to realize is that people dont always have several cars and want one car that can do it all so that they dont have to compromise. You could get a m4 but thats not practical. You could get a larger suv, but they are not as sporty, you could get an estate, but they cant go offroad etc. This thing just does it all.
