We Like the C Class Cabriolet
We test drove a 2018 C43 4Matic last weekend.
I was pleasantly surprised on the ride quality.
Was the 2917 year the introduction of this class? And have they always paired the motors with the 4Matic?
I like power ... would prefer a NA V8 - but need to have 4Matic ... so that combination does not exist in either E or C Class Cabriolets. :-(
Just have to wait a few years for these cars to get closer to our price range.

2018 C43 Cabriolet
Yes the C43 cabriolet was introduced in 2017 initially called the C450 , and has always been a 9 speed 4Matic ,as opposed to the C63 which is RWD only. I was surprised how smooth the suspension was in all the drive modes especially in comfort .
I find the power more than adequate and in the Canadian winter weather it can be used better than the more powerful C63 . For me its the perfect combination !
