In Canada it comes with the sport braking system (drilled brake rotors, Mercedes labeled callipers), the front bumper (save the chrome lip at the bottom) and rear bumpers are the same look as the GLC43.

These noted differences (and a few more not noted) are between the 'Base' and the AMG Line/Night Package. (MB Calipers are on the front only)


Differences between AMG Line and Night Package specifically are:

- Blacked out window trim (vs standard chrome)
- Blacked out side mirrors (if you bought the car in black - there is no change) (vs same color as body)
- Blacked out front lower diffuser (vs chrome)
- Blacked out rear lower diffuser (vs chrome)
- Black painted Rims (inner surfaces only with brushed aluminum front surfaces) (vs full brushed aluminum)


I think that is everything. Night package looks sharp with a contrasting white paint job. I opted for it on my Coupe and purchased aftermarket black exhaust tip covers and a black AMG43 style trunk lip to add a few more contrasting details.

All this blacked out, night stuff makes me chuckle as being an Old F _ _T. Back in the sixties we used to black out the grille but using Electrical Monkey tape, then removed the hubcaps, known as wheel covers and exposed the black painted rims, then used tire blacker to blacken the wheel nuts or just blacked the entire wheel.

I chose to not do the black night package. I like the clean look of the amg line

In the UK the night package on the 43 includes black inner wheels.

I regret not getting the AMG package. Granted it's not great value, but I spent $700 on 19" wheels and front trim. Had I known how nice the AMG would look I would gladly have paid the extra $900.

One of the subtle changes you might want to watch out for (I am not sure if it is triggered by the night package) are the black instead of brushed aluminum look vent surrounds for the front dash.

Those dark vent bezels are part of the night package. You have a good eye. I thought I was the only person nerdy enough to know that level of detail.
