When I paid $109k for a smaller SUV, I ABSOLUTELY expected the vehicle to compare reasonably to the $156k slightly bigger GLE63S.

But the 2019 GLC63S compares poorly to my daughter’s $36k 2016 Chevy Cruz - except, of course in the acceleration department.

I’m a huge AMG fan, and own 5 of them and plan to buy more.....but the 2019 GLC63S is a very bad departure from the standard for the brand.

My dealer has 85 GLC’s and they are having a very hard time selling them because they are such a bad vehicle for the price.

I’m going to dump my GLC63 and get a Quadrifoglio for a year until the new GLE63S Is able to be ordered.

 

dramatic much? the GLC30p sells like hotcakes... which is the only thing your dealer can have 85 off. that's a way different discussion than the GLC63, isn't it?

There's no chevy branded car that's half as nice as the GLC63. stop playing.

 

Lol. I'm seeing tons of GLCs around here. Plenty in my work parking lot even. I can't remember seeing a single GLE in the past year though. My GLC63 is fantastic and I love it more every day.

 

Love mine as well. Drove a w210 e55 for 4 days and missed my GLC63 so much. I was very eager to drive it again.
I agree that interior is pretty cheap for a 85k car, but whatever. It looks sick and drives fast for a SUV.

 

Had mine for 3,000kms so far and I love everything about it!! It’s the best looking SUV out, sounds great, more than enough power, sound system is amazing, handles almost as well as my previously modified STI and EVO 6 and I love the bucket seats and carbon interior. Yes it’s jerky in the sports modes, but I only had that issue whilst I was learning how to drive the car. Rarely do I have that problem now.

Crabbing does exist but only in cold weather when the tyres are cold. Transmission is clunky when it’s cold but once everything has warmed up its all smooth as silk.

Reliability I can’t comment on as it’s still relatively new.

Yes I have some gripes about it, but the pro’s outweigh the con’s by far. Whilst it’s a luxury vehicle, some of those cons bring some RAW aspects to the car that I kinda like.

Would I buy it again? In a heartbeat. But I’d also consider the new GLE63 in a few years time purely for the increase in size for my growing kids and the new model is looking promising!
