Falling out of love with my G, falling in love with the GLC63

YUP! i am planning on trading my '18 G wagon for either '18 GLC63 or wait for the facelifted GLC63. My local dealer said the face lifted may not arrive until late SEPT time this year???


Anyhow, it is a completely different vehicle between the G tank and the GLC63, but man i am falling in love wit them! Oh, the SUV body NOT the coupe


Any inputs for current GLC63 owners (SUV body)

Was in your shoes last summer

I went with the glc63 suv last summer & eventually sold 2015 g550 at the of the year. Totally different vehicles. The glc is so much more fun. If I wanted new, I would go for 18 or 19 with discount at least 10% off sticker. I am not into waiting for the facelift and paying sticker or close to sticker.

It just sucks that the 21" cross spoke design is only avail in the Coupe trim , as well as the red brakes

I'd love to buy one also but would prefer a S-Model SUV. Makes no sense the S-Model SUV not sold in the US but sold in smaller markets like Canada, England and Australia!

Love my GLC63 and i also have the SUV not the Coupe. I have 21" with red calipers on mine so unsure why only giving you those options in the Coupe?
It handles like a dream around corners but it does have a bit of body roll in comfort settings.
Oh and wait till you get passed the break in period and you can play with launch control... soooo much fun .

Just do it. I recently purchased a GLC63 SUV and it's an animal. I love the exhaust and constantly make sure to have the valves open before turning the car on. I've been wresting with buying a new car for 9 months and needed something immediately. I initially went to the dealer to order the 2020 refresh but they told me it would be a September - October time frame, which was too long for me. I decided to test drive the GLC63 and 2 hours later was driving home with it.

Pics: (I'm going to be detailing the car this weekend and ordered a lot of stuff but can't wait to getting her looking slick)
