Took delivery of my 2020 fully loaded E53 in late March. Quickly completed the 1000 miles run-in. So far I love my E53 in Senenite Gray Metalic, and most importantly its performance, smooth and fast acceleration.
@@unfortunatechild So far after clocked in over 14,000 miles and slightly over 3 years, I have no issues with my E53. Real reliable. Over last 13 years, I bought 2 E350, 1 ML350, 1 GLE400, a GLE53AMG, and the E53AMG. Each was driven less than 5500 miles a year. I like best is my E53AMG followed by my newest GLE53AMG. A good balance between luxury and performance
One thing I learned recently with Mercedes-Benz sedans/coupes is : A and C class had 1 line in the headlights, E class has 2 and S class has 3! Good vid joe
Hi 👋🏾 Raiti. This is one of the best and fun cars to drive. I had the AMG E53 Coupé for 3 days when my car was in service and loved it. I’m creating a review video of it on my channel and it should be awesome. I even posted a night drive POV and the ambient lighting was incredible! Great 👍🏾 review.
Sounds so much better than the E400 convertible that I had. Very nice. Great review. I'm 5'9" & I had someone else that was 5'9" sitting behind me & fit just great. This is one of those convertibles where 4 people can actually fit in it & not get crunched.
I feel like back then BMW had the performance down and Mercedes had the luxury down but now I think they both might be on par with both luxury and performance.
When I had my w205 c300 I was surprised to find out that I had a regular automatic transmission. The way the transmission shifts in sport+ is like a dual clutch! Mercedes left me feeling very impressed!
If anyone is looking for a new car and you have reviewed this then they should take a look. I love the honesty even outside the dealership you will ZONK it.
Exterior styling just isn't aggressive enough to me for an AMG... wheels, interior and dash i love though. The body colored roof panel looks so awful i can't believe someone is letting these leave the factory with that, so black is a must for this car.
Thanks for the thorough review. It would be great if you could also do the E-450 for comparison. Your experience confirms what others have said in calling this an AMG-lite vehicle, which leads to disappointment.
The front “enclosed” grills on either side of the splitter are functional. They act aerodynamically to push airflow past the wheels. There’s a gap there at “the black curtains” as you called them. I think it’s important to do some research before making videos and giving “expert” opinion. I don’t like the look either, they perhaps could have used black or carbon smooth ducts rather than the fake grills.
Hi Joe, thanks for wishing me happy birthday. Sorry, I was writing a reply, but then Doug's video jumped from nowhere and I had to go through Doug is a type of a guy comments 😀
The vents in front of the front wheels are NOT fake. You said the car did not have a double clutch - Mercedes calls it a "Multi-Clutch". Go figure. Cheers
Arno Oganesian 70k for what is reviewed would be a great price point excluding options. 90k is a lot. I personally prefer the sedan engine in the coupe.
Raiti's Rides you’re welcome, it’s a nice car don’t get me wrong but at 131 a V6 Camry can do that, now if there was a tune for the AMG I’m sure it could go like 150
It costs as much as a house and at the end of the day is a soulless car with way too many computers. Go over one typical American street and the whole thing will break to pieces.
