AMG C43
THIRD AMG
Yesterday i drove home with a 2020 AMG C43. My wife and i have had some neat cars over the years, but I am a bit amazed that somehow we are now on our third AMG.i was down to a BMW M340 and an Audi S4, but then I researched the AMG. It was a no brainer. Our first was a white C32 I bought at Tony Sopranos Globe motors in NJ. Sitting in the show room. Very nice car that my wife fell in love with, but the bolsters were too tight for me to drive comfortably. Didn't have it too long. In 2003 they came out with the new E55 and we bought it, in silver. What an amazing car. Big sedan that was effortlessly fast. But this C43 is light years advanced with it’s tech and i lucked out on a really loaded car with the performance exhaust. Lunar blue, saddle brown interior. Not sure I’m posting in the right area, but I look forward to reading the member posts as I once again experience an AMG.

Yes , sorry to disappoint you buddy but you should of did more research you most likely had 2 AMGs (c32 and e55 both great AMGs)in the past but this Mercedes Benz you purchased is not a true AMG
IF IT WAS A 1998-2000 c43 then yes Sir you have got yourself a winner one man one motor .Your 2020 c four three which is not hand built sadly should never have had a AMG
Logo on it . Mercedes dropped the ball on this one (c63s is true AMG) maybe you could return it and test drive a w202 c43 😎 great AMG and so much fun to drive bullet proof engines
Good luck with your new car

Oh Well
Well, I’m embarrassed but not upset. Thanks for putting me out of my misery quickly, guys. I was looking for certain things in a car and it fit the bill. I’m not going to enjoy it one bit less. And, I HAVE owned an AMG. Ah, marketing. I watched a vid of a Charger and the tester said, just so you know these aren’t true Hemi’s like back in the day. That’s just marketing.

The modern C43 is absolutely a great car. I'd love to have one! I'm glad you like it and hope it treats you well in the coming years. Regardless of MB's marketing tactics, we should reward them for building fun cars for us. With things going pure EV soon, we will quickly realize how lucky we were to have twin turbo V6 cars!
