Re my post about what I am experiencing with my 2020 C43 with the PE exhaust option, hopefully what you test has that option....start it cold, drive it continuously and please let me know your experiences. Assuming you experience the same deep growl when the car has reached temperature, press the PE switch on the console and see what happens. Thank you.

I noted this morning before I started my car that it has just turned over 500 miles....have no idea if that was a magic number/cure, but the noted symptoms have completed disappeared....cold start in my garage as usual, a 50 mile round trip, and then a re-start after washing the car back home....it has been transformed and I'm in a most happy/relieved place. Did you end up buying or ordering a 2020?

neither. I’m gonna pull the trigger in January and doing all my due diligence now. They did offer me 10k off a 62k 2019 coupe. It was polar white and I want black. Had PE but base interior. This was step 1 in my decision
