Looks nice. But would rather have the C63s.

But an AMG in general I don't think you can go wrong with.

Yeah, if you don't care about horsepower or things like that then the C43 is a good choice.

C63 is 500+ HP

If you're buying an AMG it's V8 or bust, the rest are just poser cars.

The whole series of 53, 43, 33, 23 whatever the fuk "AMGs" that aren't a 63 is an absolute disgrace and a money grab by Mercedes. Same with BMW and the "M sport" BS garbage. Anytime I see one of these cars I just feel sorry that the owner wanted the badge bad enough to spend good money on what is ultimately a poser car.

As a past C63s, M4, GT-R and current M8 Comp owner these ****boxes very presences triggers me into oblivion.

The 43 comes with a 4.3 v8 right ? Hasn’t the 4 series v8 always been a underpowered and unreliable piece of **** compared to the 5 and 6 series ?

Just realized it is a 4.3 v6 lmao

Brb buying a ****ing Mercedes sports coupe that isn’t a v8 lol

**** off

C63 >>>>>>>c43 for the exhuast note and roar at throttle alone

Now an s63 AMG is actually starting to get into RELATIVELY impressive territory but CONSIDER people have 80k f150s and make 60k it's only MINORLY impressive in my opinion MOSTLY due to the fact that THEY actually have SOME knowledge of the MB line up and DIDN'T get a c300

I would only ever get a car like this if I had 10 million in liquid assets plus a bunch of real estate

So probably not happening for me lol

Guys I work for are worth at least 50 million and ride the bus to work srs
