There’s a C50 listed as being made for certain markets. I believe it has the E53 engine in it. Has anyone seen one before?

There's no such model as a W205 C50.
The C Class will only get the M256 in line 6 in the next generation, and it would be called a 43 or a 53.

Apparently there is, since 2016. Maybe a rebadged C450/C43 for other markets?

It could only be.
I've not seen one in North America, Europe or Asia.
It can't have the new M256 engine as that was 1st released on the CLS53, European S500 and E53 around 2018. There's no way they'd re engineer the C Class for a new engine and not use it in all markets, let alone somehow have it ready 2 years before the engine was actually released.

It’s an appearance and mild tune package from Lorinser for C450s. Someone on here has one.

The new M256 win’t physically fit in the W205 chassis as it won’t accomodate 6 on a row... so no such thing.
