2017 C43 test results are in!
Hello MB World,
I'm a new member and just took delivery of a 2017 C43 Sedan. I've done a bunch of research on this site for reviews and tuning options so I'm glad to finally be a member and I'm looking forward to getting to know some of you guys!
Car and Driver just posted results from their instrument testing and I'm impressed! The car is much quicker than I expected, here's the link:

0-60 in 4.1 and 1/4 mile in 12.7 @ 110
A lot of people say the C450 is the same as the C43 but that is definitely not true as I've never seen a stock C450 do better than 4.5 0-60 from any reliable source. The new 9 speed transmission and the other changes must make a huge difference. I knew the C43 would be quicker than the C450 but I was surprised that it beat it by so much. For reference, here is a link for the C450 test results:
