C-class AMG History: nice comparison pics

Some pics of the 190E-AMG, C43 AMG, C55 AMG, and C63 AMG to compare at various angles. You can really see some similarities between the W201 and W202. From the side and rear angles, even the W203 and W204 obviously share the same lineage. The only thing that stands out from the rest is the front headlamp design of the W203. And I still say there is not much in common between the W201 and W204.



















And here are 2 pics with all of them together (including a C36 AMG, C32 AMG Estate, and C63 AMG Estate). I have separate pics of these 3 cars too, but I was too lazy to post them in the above comparison pictures.

Please post pics of the C36 AMG. I don't think its fair to discredit the C36 AMG, it is the genesis of all modern AMGs after all. It is one of the most historically important AMGs period. Post it if you can. thx

Awesome pics. Thank you! Was the 190E AMG or C43/C36 AMG ever offered in manual transmission?

OK, back to more reasonable sized pictures for the C36 AMG, C32 AMG Estate, and C63 AMG Estate from the same set of press pictures as the original ones I posted, as requested by a few members.

I believe the 190E was the only one of these ever offered with a clutch.

I absolutely love the C43 and the C63!!

Not so much the C55 or C32; not too sure why. Maybe it's the headlights

Man
What a pleasant summary ! This thread should be in sticky!
I have compiled a little history table of C AMG street cars,
please correct if any errors.
Amazing small production numbers, AMG classes are really jewels of its own kind!
