I know my comment is way late.. but this is the best looking C43 I've seen to date.. The body kit with the Red piping and the alloys really set the car off.... Fair play to the owner.👌👏
Said this before, but theyre so underrated cars!! And the V6 sounds so good! Well done to the owner for not making it look like a C63 with the grill etc
@@swansmeister What is worthy of the AMG badge these days? The new 4 pot C63 is a joke, this C43 is more of an AMG than the new C63 will ever be. I also disagree with them not being fast as well. 0-60 sprint dealt with in 4.7 seconds is fast in general, but most certainly for a non full blown AMG car. 360bhp and over 500NM is quick for something a size of a C class.
Sooo you’re gonna ignore the fact that it has c63 exhaust tips? Tbh i think thats more cringe than the grill seeming how the c63s and c43 grill is the same on facelifted models lmao
I currently have a C63S with a tune and it’s an absolute monster, but I do miss my tuned C43. The 2 are so different from each and have their own little quirks to them. I do love the deep sound of the V8 but there are times I miss that high pitch V6 sound. Maybe I need them both. 😂
Love the build. I have a c43 and love it. Was actually going to do a full motor build on mine, already bought the Carrillo pistons and rods. Unfortunately I will not be able to move forward with the build at this time...
@@afegasdf76y123e Starting a new business venture as well as my other projects. Unfortunately I can't afford to do them all right now. Had to make a tough choice. Focusing on getting my 07 BMW M6 in top shape, but it needs a lot of maintenance because it sat for a while.

I do have the parts listed on eBay.
I have most of the same mods in my GLC 43, but I have stock turbos. Impressive build! You should upgrade fuel pumps with upgraded turbos. I'd consider doing forged rods/pistons so that your m276 can handle the torque, and potentially do upgraded transmission with Renntech.
@ali abbas I really do as the car is not getting enough fuel it's holding back, but they will be on soon also need them if I want to run race fuel at some point
Michelin ps4's mate btw, not Pirelli, just to help you out, I think you can also get PS4S and now even a PS5 tyre, also look at the continental sport contact 7 as their the new version and on paper their actually amazing except for aquaplaning, sick build btw 😉

Sehr dezent getuntes C43 sieht super aus.Ich hatte mal C450 mit 460 PS. jetzt fahre ich orginal C63 S. sind verschiedene Welten aber beide Autos sind brutal. Mercedes! Entweder beste oder nichts!
Totally agree with ronburgundy most people loved the c43 because of the sound and it’s a quick car people that want a c43 /c63 are not interested in 4 cylinders they’ve lost the plot
Wheels are sick. Lip kit is nice. I love this thing. I don’t love the red bit over video but in person it probably looks sick with the red breaks I don’t know why but I’m not a fan of the coupe. I like the Sedan better. I owned a 2018 C43 4door I sold and I miss it I wish Mercedes would have used this v6 engine as a hybrid for the new C63 rather than a v4 hybrid
Are these engines as reliable as a N55 or B58? (you know what I mean reliable, like can you safely push this power daily with no issues 90% of the cases, or is it regularly flawed)
Just curious with the wet weather in your neck of the woods how do these cars do in the wet? Are these folks daily driven vehicles? If so how do they handle the weather and roads there with cars so low to the ground and so powerful in slick conditions? Thanks for your time.👍👍
Handles like any other car to be honest mate it don't have to be it sport plus all the time lol the other modes make it feel like factory so I have the best of both worlds
Hi David, I'm about to buy a c43 2017 it's a Cat N but very good condition. Would love to get some advice on it, tho. Eg what are the things to look at when i go and visit the seller I don't have insta so can communicate here much appreciated
Hello. I have this car stage 3 and intake. It appears you have stock intake to keep the Benz plat over the motor. I have intake and now the benz plate will not fit. In any event, did you get your vehicle tuned in UK?
Cool car. Cool video Luke. Plecase, for diversity sake, bring back Hot hatch head2head. În what ever form you want. And maybe when you have your next road trip, document that. Or the Top Gear inspired video type... 😁
Did you have to use any spacers for the fronts. I like the way you have it flush. My challenge is finding the correct offset for my c43. Thanks in advance.
How much money for that HP I mean the car is at 400 out of factory or close to it anyways for all them upgrades for only 150hp I don’t think it’s worth it

Cant compare this with a standard c43, standard they are realy not the fastest, not worthy of the amg badge imo.

Isn't this the late 2017 AMG C43. the 6 cylinder, the steering wheel, the wheels, seats and grill..great vehicle
Always been fond of these... Sound unbelievable even when stock too, and that’s coming from a W204 C63 owner!

Mercedes always feels like a lion in a sheep or in a suit if you will. I think it's Mercedes's special charm.

It's way more expensive and if you talk about Cayman it looks fugly and it's too slow
