CLS400 - Interior engine noise
I'm currently looking at purchasing a C218 CLS400 - had a short test drive of one today and the engine seemed oddly noisy for a stock car - as in, I could hear much more of the engine than I expected inside the car.
Granted this was going up a hill and I wasn't paying too much attention to the rpms (I definitely wasn't flooring it though) but is this normal or something of concern? I don't have much experience with non AMG Mercs and was quite surprised by the volume of the engine - thought it would be better isolated.
