When you say fastest do you mean the quickest to park the car, get the ECU out, flash it, and reinstall it? (sarcasm is prevalent)
Cause I have no idea how fast this E43 is via a dyno; the street tells no lies.

i have yet to read about any tuning company fulfilling a warranty claim on engine damage caused by the tune. You seem to know what you're talking about so I trust your judgement.

Mercedes Benz C43 AMG
. I have done a lot of research and have been around modified cars a very long time. I have AMR's stage 1 on my C43 and couldn't be happier. If I had to recommend any company to trust when upgrading your vehicle, it would be AMR hands down.

The best or nothing
Duel : Mercedes E 55 AMG (W210) vs Mercedes E 43 AMG (W213)
The decision for me to NOT get the E43 was the dynamic performance is the same as W210 E55.
Check out:
80-120Km/h .. they are exactly the same. I believe this is the most important parameter if this car is your daily driver.

P.S.
The braking distance for W210 should be around 33m so it is also about the same.

It's real world experience when driven both head to head, not just numbers on paper.
Plus E55 had a lower consumption (-30%) driven the same way..

You are smoking the drapes. There is no comparison between a W210 E55 and the E43. Twenty years of engineering has gone a long way. It's like comparing the E43 to the muscle cars of the 60's.

The engineering is wonderful and has come a long way.
I'm just saying both cars feel the same but E55 is more comfortable and there is less road noise and the ride is not as harsh.
I'm simply saying the E43 is not worth the price tag and it is NOT a true AMG by today's standards.

This car replaces the E550 and therefore not a true AMG. I'll give you that one. That being said, it has brakes and suspension that are far superior to the E550. As far as the interior goes, read CAR and DRIVER assessment on this. A 20 year old E55 cannot compete on any level with this car. Even in it's day, it was mediocre.
At 25K cheaper than the E63, this car is a great compromise as a sport sedan. It's a luxury daily driver with an attitude.

What is your point? What is the stopping distance of the 20 year old E55? I'm not trying to sell you an E43. If you are happy with your car, good for you.

my point is where did you get that the e43 is far superior in brakes and suspension to the 2014 e550?
