AMG Performance Exhaust ?

If I order the AMG PE with the night package (2018 C43 Sedan) do I get silver or black exhaust tips?

The night pack gives you gloss black tips like these.

They mostly blend into the diffuser.

You can always swap them out with someone who wants black ones

Don't waste your money on OEM. These Hong Kong numbers should do the trick.

Are PE on C43 coupe worth it? Seem pretty inexpensive.

Do those of you who got the perf. exhaust factory installed on C43 coupe feel that it makes much sound improvement.? I am debating on whether to add it or not on preorder
but $1250 seems reasonable.
Assume no change to rpms or torque when push the button. Just an enhanced gurgle and growl!!!! Correct?

Yes 100% yes. It is a night and day difference. In my opinion, it makes the car.

C43 AMG Coupe
I completely agree: this option is definitely worth it. When I was custom configuring the car on the website, I had left it off. Went to the dealer and he had a model with the option on and it became a must-have. If I'm not stuck in my commute on I93 (where I pop it into Eco), I almost always have it on Sport+ with the PE on. It makes the car a head-turner.

Just imagine if there was a button for the wife to quiet her down when you didn’t want to listen to her annoying voice.. that’s how the performance exhaust works.. if they came out with a button for my wife I would pay anything they asked!!

I take it your wife never ever reads the forums, if she did you would probably wear a tire iron as hat!

This has been discussed over and over. Get the PE and enjoy the car. Don't get the PE and you will regret it

Just out of curiosity, does this exhaust actually have a performance impact or is it just sound?

It's just the button that opens up the valves which bypasses the rear mufflers which in conclusion, yes, gives you increased sound!

I'm sure it'll give you a few extra hp up top but it's negligible. The "performance" in the name is just marketing. Not sure why they don't just call it "exhaust button exhaust" because the single greatest development in automotive tech the past 10 years has got to be the 'exhaust button.' For sure it's in the top 3!
