Move from C450 to 2017 C43
Stopped by the local dealership today and they had just take in a used copy of my car, 1 year newer. Seeing that my car has 75,000 miles on it, and used one has under 20k, I'm considering trading for it. Wondering if anyone can fill me in on what's new beyond the engine and transmission changes??

1) Updated 9 speed gearbox
2) The C450's 33/67 (front/rear) power delivery is changed to 31/69 on the C43
3) Access to the AMG Performance Exhaust (I wouldn't move from a C450 to C43 personally, and definitely wouldn't do it if the C43 didn't have this exhaust equipped)
4) Tons of AMG goodies all over the place (AMG menu's in the console, etc.)

Thanks for the info, that's pretty much my list, although I'm not sure I understand the exhaust difference. I'm considering the move because I can spin back the mileage from over 75K to around 15K, and get the CPO warranty.
Differences...
