This is the new Mercedes-AMG GLC 63 S - Notice the Grill
What do you think about it?


Coming soon. AMG GLC 63 S 4AMTIC+. This should compete with Porsche Macan Turbo S and BMW X4 m Sport(?).


Notice the AMG GT grill!

Trying...trying.....nope I kinda hate that grill on the GLC. Makes it look like a bulging Jeep.

Otherwise...I'm debating on how many organs I'd be willing to sell to make that car happen for me.

I'm not keep on that grill either, but I think they were left no choice but to do something as the dotted grill is being used on all the diesels in AMG trim and removed any kind of distinction...

Almost reminds me of the Maserati Levante grille. But no thanks - I chose GLC43 because I originally wanted the GLC300 but with more oomph.

It's like the Levante grill is a Jeep breathing in, and the GLC 63 is breathing out.

The GLC has better lights than the Levante....I was all set in ordering the Levante until I noticed one on the road and to me it just looks weird and common; it looked like a Hyundai from the front when in motion....I really didn't like it at all. Yet when parked up, I saw my first one in Paris back in August last year and it was rather nice....

I think the Levante is fugly and loaded with Chrysler pieces parts! Reliability will not be good.

Mercedes GLC 250 4matic 2017 Iridium silver, with beige/brown interior.
Thx but no thx.
I could probably live with the engine.
The looks is another story. I'm not a
fan of the coupe at all, & this is ugly.
The grille seems distant from MB...

Not a fan.
