So you've got $160k in your hip pocket and fancy a four-door wearing an AMG badge. Fortunately for you, Affalterbach offers two distinctly different choices, if separated in price by only a couple of grand.
In one corner sits the perennial favourite nameplate, the 2017 Mercedes-AMG C63 S.
Mid-sized and with a Herculean 375kW and 700Nm from its 4.0-litre biturbo V8 fed through the rear tyres, it arrives in your driveway with a big reputation and much sonic fanfare for $157,211 list. As a cleanskin, though - those optional ceramic brakes nudge an extra five figures. Temper the C63 S's hunger for wheelspin and it'll sprint to 100km/h from a standstill, says AMG, in just four seconds neat.
Quite a large step over to the opposing corner lurks the relative newcomer from the Merc skunkworks, the 2017 Mercedes-AMG E43. Its twin-turbocharged 3.0-litre V6 produces a more modest 295kW and a lower 520 Newton Metre count, and the form guide states it's six-tenths slower in the 0-100km.h sprint. However, it's a larger and roomier sedan, plies all-wheel drive for sweat-free performance and promises a more balanced experience between performance and luxury.

“Merc that wants to be a Audi” that’s the silliest statement I’ve ever heard 👎

@swietiboyxd 6 лет назад

I would prefer the e43, it is more well rounded and more usable but still fast enough and it has the better tech 😉👍🏻

@aychihuahua99 6 лет назад

Both very nice cars. E43 if you're a bit older and want a more luxurious daily driver, C63S for the pure speed and driving thrill.

What I don't get, is that if it wasn't a real AMG, why did AMG call it an AMG.

@BomberFletch31 6 лет назад

That acting at the start of the video was so fake.

Confusing vid, left me none the wiser!

In all honestly, i love both cars but i have to completely agree.

E43 all day. Let’s be honest with ourselves here. None of us are professional drivers. And none of us commute on a race track to get to work in the morning. The e43 is just the better all around cat. Sure, you lose .6 seconds 0-60mph but the ride comfort, the awd system and the better looking exterior and interior is well worth it. But, I’m a yankee so what do I know right?

Nice to be energetic. But you two are no actors. Not meant to be I suppose.. Don't cheapen your style. It's an AMG. Just like when merc introduced the new A-class for the masses. Just because the engine is not hand build doesn't make it so..

@farooqali9809 2 года назад

I had to choose between these 2 cars and I went with the e43 with a stage 2 tune I take stock c63 wayyy better interior and exterior and all wheel drive!

My Race mode on my cla45 AMG is the best thing there is!!

@Riplure 6 лет назад

more of these blind test 👍

@arelaththewhitewolf230 6 лет назад

I don’t want to upgrade from CLA45 to E43 because it’s slower. C63 S is good but I got my eyes on E63 S.. I hope they come out with a coupe version which is unlikely

@senorgato70 6 лет назад

Haha. Great video. Pretty entertaining way to talk about the distinction between these two cars and without any whining or nitpicking like some other reviewers.
