C63 AMG Coupe vs. CLS550 Coupe vs. CLA45 AMG

Hey all,

My car was totaled last week, and after quite some research, I've narrowed down my options to 3 options, all MB. I'm buying used, so the difference is 5-10K between them, all within my range.

I've driven them all and they're all great in terms of driving experience. Which do you think gets more attention?

CLS550 coupe, but I'm biased. Lol.

Honestly, I do not see a lot of the C63 Coupes. I guy down the street from me has one & whenever I see it I always stop & look.

all three are fairly rare around here, but I'd say the CLS sticks out among the crowd since the C will always get lumped into the $30k crowd - based on the average driver.

I guess it all depends on what part of the country you're in. Here in Houston I see CLS' all day long. The rare car in this group for my region is the C63 AMG Coupe. I hardly ever see those. If the CLS63 was in the race that'd be different.

My vote is for the C63... probably a bit biased!

At least where I live, I hardly see any C63s on the road. And if you ever want to prove to anyone that its not just another C-class... there is always that amazing V8 soundtrack!!!

I see 1 C63 for probably every 500 CLS I see here in Kansas. They are pretty rare.

I was considering a CLS when I bought my C63. But I needed 3 seats in the back for kids from time to time (2 of my own plus one of their friends). I've always preferred the CLS styling over the others. I will agree, the CLS is more commonly found here in the DC area than a C63. I've seen almost as many CLA45 AMG as C63 in my area.

Might want to consider getting a quote from insurance for the CLS.
Here in SoCal, the CLS is one of the most expensive cars to insure, right next to the GTR.
