C450 here, but still same..
Disclosure: I'm coming from an 06 350z, so I love everything about the C43/450 AMG:
- response is amazing
- the acceleration is one if not the fastest tested in its class
- the "pop - pops"
- subjective, but I think this has the best interior in its class. The design and details are unbeatable (love the blue ambient lighting)
- the Burmester system is not the loudest but the sound is complete and well equalized
- the w205 chasis itself has nice styling and the diamond grille that resembles the GT is gorgeous
- anytime I have passengers in the rear, they love the pana roof
- the fact that the smaller engine (compared to a 63) is so tunable and capable..makes it that much lovable
- coming from a RWD that was way too "tail-happy", I love the 4Matic.
- the technology in the car as a whole

That's a lot of HP and Tq! These engines can definitely put out some impressive numbers. I'm kind of worried about the stress it'll put on the engine though, I plan on buying my c43 and want to get the most life out of it. How much was the tune? Also it's an ECU flash right? So I'm assuming you have to mail it to them and be without the car for a while?

That's pretty impressive!
Your dealer hasn't acted up about the tune?

It's wild lol I know a guy with another stage 1 C43 that went 12.2 in the quarter with a terrible 60' haha this tune is unreal. The funny thing is that it is so smooth, you think it came from the factory like this........until you hit the throttle lol then hold on!

2021 Mercedes C63s AMG Coupe
Everything I love about my car summed up here:
I have driven quite a few number of performance sedans but none of them has anything on the AMG PE. The exhaust in this car alone makes it nothing short of absolutely amazing. I am kind of bummed that this car is still not getting the kind of attention the M2 gets and that car sounds like a vacuum cleaner.
My friend has a C43 as well and usually when we go out for a drive together, there is not a single person within 4 blocks in each direction that does not stop what they are doing to check where the bangs are coming from. Also the plethora of noises it makes on throttle liftoff comes second only to the F type. I have owned this car for 6 months now, and everytime I drive it, I still laugh like it is the very first day I put it on the sports + mode.
Atleast it is nice to see that the C43 irrespective of proper reviews out there for it, is selling quite a lot.
