New to MBWorld, but just swapped out my 2016 E63 for a 2018 GLC63 SUV. Have waited a little over 5-6 months for the SUV but I am surprisingly impressed with the truck. Located within NJ, I have not seen any GLC63s yet on the road. Not sure if anyone has taken any delivery of an SUV yet, but seen a couple of coupes on here. I always loved the look of the GLC and with the AMG exterior additions the car looks great. Handles very well even though it feels very much like a C63 inside. I believe the suspension and trans both come from the new E63 which kind of makes this truck a hybrid between the two. As far as the brakes, they feel good now but MB brakes always under perform to me. The carbon ceramics would be a great option for a sporty driver as myself. I really like to push my cars and this is also my first SUV, so this is a totally new experience. The suspension is firm, minimal roll, through hard corners you can feel the back end rolling a tiny bit, but can be countered by the rear wheel drive bias if you give the car a little more power. All in all within the first day I can say I'm excited, I think more than my old E63. On to the pics and build, received a 6% discount for the wait, and also received an additional $1250-1500 fleet discount from my united club card. Have not gotten a chance to take photos with my camera but here are some from my iPhone X.
Sweet looking ride. Glad you stayed within the AMG club. Get a tune for even a bigger smile
Thank you!!! looking to get a tune ASAP, have some friends over at DME tuning. Stage one would be around 570hp, but I'm crazy and was thinking of being the first PURE Turbo GLC. With the cost of labor and materials for the DP install, I figured hybrid turbos and a tune would be a better route. With the performance exhaust the car has a good tone and is fairly loud, downpipes would be nice but ultimately are very rough on this build with the turbo's mounted on top of the motor. Ill keep this thread updated as the build continues.

Nice truck M1Rider! Man all you 63 guys are making me jealous. I wish the 63's were out when I was shopping a year ago.
