C43 standard exhaust vs C450 standard exhaust
So i'm in a bit of a dilemma. I heard a C43 with performance exhaust over the weekend and it sounded beautiful. Lots of crackles and pops.
Conversely I heard a stock C450 exhaust today and there was quite a difference between that and the C43.
Does anyone know which stock exhaust came with C450s in Canada? Was it the same amg sport exhaust that comes standard on the C43 and C63?

The regular exhaust on the C43 aka non performance exhaust, and the C450 exhaust are both the same. This exhaust will pop and crackle also.
The performance exhaust is going to be louder. This is an option for the car, this option package was not available on the C450.
I would listen to a CLA45 AMG with perf exhaust, and then 1 without, basically that will be the equivalent.

It's kind of hard to get any reference right now, CLA45 is a 4 banger compared to the V6 of the C43, going to sound different... Would kinda like be comparing the C63 with or without the performance exhaust. When I pick up my C43 I'm going to try and get them to start up another one with standard exhaust and see if they'll let me shoot a comparison video. Seems to be a very common question and zero videos online!

The Performance Exhaust on the C43 is the same part number as on the C63.

I think all we need to do is take a look under the car to See the difference. If the performance exhaust is the same as the c63, it is a true dual design with an x pipe, and bypass valves on the mufflers. If the standard exhaust is the same at on the c450, then it is a 2 to 1 to 2 design with mufflers that don't change.
