2016 C450 or 2013 CLS63
So I almost bought my C450 this week but then found out I'm leaving for alil bit so figured I'd hold off.
Been looking at the previous generation CLS and I'm intrigued with being able to have over 700lbs of torque after a tune.
Any of you Newer C class owners thought about the previous gen CLS instead? If not why. And if so why?

Hmmm... I really love my lil sporty C. And AWD was a must for me (which is why I couldn't get the c63). But I certainly wouldn't mind having a CLS63. The CLS's are actually my favorite looking sedan that MB offers.

I think c43 (c450) interior is much nicer, very modern.I just can’t go back to the bunch of dials in the dash board , it’s like a much older generation to me.
If you concern more of the power and drive train, CLS 63 is nice since it’s nice to have something so powerful and about half the price.
I suggest you to think how long you gonna own the car for. If not for long, go for CLS63, then you can switch to the c43 or something. I suppose the CLS63 depreciation rate (compare to the c450) is lower since the car has some age in it.

How much is the CLS? The C450 will depreciate more than the CLS63 will I think.
From a resale value standpoint, you might stand to suffer less depreciation with the CLS63 since its already 4 yrs old compared to the C450 which is only 1 yr old.

You got the point, a little hard for me to explain due to my English. Haha
