2017 Mercedes-Benz SLC - Review and Road Test

- First things first: The Mercedes-Benz SLC is what we used to call the SLK; blame the Mercedes nomenclature realignment strategy for the new badge. However, credit the company's AMG division for the real news: the introduction of the Mercedes-AMG SLC43.

even though I can't even afford a mazda cx3 yet, but I watch this channel solely for the great presentation, good job folks
My parents just got one of these, comes tomorrow, cant wait!
Was it good? Im disappointed they stop making it. Personally i think the interior is quite outdated
KBB and MT are defenitely the best and most Pleasant american reviewing channels of them all.
verzekeringsadviseur Absolutely, this comes from an ardent fan in India!
verzekeringsadviseur agreed, I subscribed to both of them for this. Try reason
Love the videos, although I think I'm most impressed by Micah's music. It does a lot to make the reviews enjoyable and thematically coherent without sticking-out or demanding conscious attention. It's nice to see he gets an outlet for all that creativity.
I don't know why I watch these videos knowing I can't afford this car.
Taylorthegoat __ Because of Micah.
Taylorthegoat __ the dude doing this show is funny that why i love this show and yeah i can't afford most of shown cars lol
Taylorthegoat __ I'm gonna be watching a bugatti video after this .....lol
You know the pain Doug DeMuro viewers experience every day
@@teenaquarist7158 lol
4:14 I think you mean SLC-300. Great video
I sat in an SLC 250d today while my wife was picking up her new smart forfour. I asked the stunningly beautiful girl at the front desk if I could take a picture of it. She asked if would like her to take a video of me sitting in it so in I went! It was blue with black interior. I never liked black leather interiors before but I love it now. This was awesome. The seats looked very low to me and the doors high at each side leaving me with just my head above it. There’s so much room inside and blissfully comfortable. It has to be the nicest car I’ve ever sat in! I didn’t want to get out of it. I told her if I won the lottery tomorrow, I was going to phone her to put it aside for me 😀. We do love our new smart forfour though.
No animals or human were hurt during the production of this video. Except a Cameraman
(4:15)
Would rather go with a F Type. The SLC still uses the old tech of the SLK, like the GLE and and ML before it.
MBisFrenchy Well yes that's because the SLC was just a FACELIFT of the SLK and the GLE the facelift of the ML. These aren't the all new models since they're only halfway through their product life cycle. The actuall all new GLE comes out next year.
Yes I was aware. The new GLE will be interesting to see go against the XC90 5 seat configuration.
MBisFrenchy Yes. For me the Volvo is off putting due to the lack of 6 cylinder options. I'm all for smaller 4 cylinder turbos in sedans and smaller cars but in a large SUV? No. Mercedes will at least have some 6 cylinder options and still an AMG V8 which Volvo won't have. And in such large cars, the benefits of downsizing is negated somewhat as the engines has to move such a large heavy car. They've shown in many tests that the 4 cylinder diesel XC90 was heavier on fuel than the V6 diesel in an Audi Q7.
MBisFrenchy I OWNED A SLK IT'S THE SAME CAR BUT NOW IT'S SLC.. WOW.. WAY TO FULL THEM MERCEDES-BENZ.
Nope, only the SLK, 2015+ new technology , till 2030/35 it will be midern
3:55 this dude sippin lean 😂
They changed the name and front end. But didn't update the interior. Wtf
Big Boss That's because this is a facelift not an all new model.
So basically for the AMG I'm spending close to $75,000 and if I get the base model I'm spending close to $45,000 .... If that's the case I'm opting for a Porsche Boxster or a Camaro Convertible .. Who in their right mind will spend so much cash for a car like this that's low on horse power, and de appreciate in the first few years..
Also for a car worth that much their should never be any plastic in this car. What the hell is Mercedes Benz thinking ?!
Mercedes Benz is thinking, "Mercedes Benz Logo = Sales". No need to worry about competition because our customers know they want the brand and prestige of a German Benz, not (in their eyes) some cheaply built American corvette. It's simple really.
Dark Knight I never stated the Corvette I mentioned the Camaro ..
Tino Miller Doesn't matter. In my allegory Benz still doesn't care at all. A driver that wants a Benz knows they won't buy General Motors car.
Dark Knight true but a driver who knows the depreciation value of a Benz would rather opt for a General Motors car that has these things and more available for the same price .
People now have to realize that a badge doesn't make a car more valuable it's the car itself.
Tino Miller true, and since some still don't, so~
It's great the manufacturers are trying to move to efficiency as far as engines and transmissions go, but a biturbo v6 for a AMG and a 9 speed? I'm not sure this Mercedes is worth the price tag, but great review.
J'ai une SLC 200 je suis enchantée !!
KBB didn't note its dated interior and tech sigh.... way to go!
how do you justify choosing this over boxster other than convertible hardtop?
Love the car it's just...you sit so deep in it. It's like driving a hot tub.
GREAT review !!! thank you !
I have a serious question I need to know, will it fit the electric guitar case behind the seat or in the trunk?
am I the only one who watches KBB videos even though I can't afford any of them? lol
No. You aren't. You aren't special.
Yes. The only one. The other 11,314 people all bought the car.
The only convertible I want is a S2K.
(Okay I like the Corvettes too)
Ok then why are you at this video?
Great car but quite light for the speed ⏩
Lol he said glc instead of slc
Does Blipshift sponsor these videos?
Is it rough like a Vekoma?
1:41 every other car is the same color and then this car comes in looking hot in red.
Great show great cars
Because the tech. is so far behind others and the inside looks old, I am getting it because the fixing of it should be less costly than say a Porsche Cayman or Macan. I think?
id pick this over the porsche anyday but that name grrrr slk sounded much better
Pass! Go with the BMW 440 with the X-drive and enjoy all year round! Also a hardtop convertible!!!
Why was the trunk so steamy tho?
samuel SFX I think.
FARTS!🤢
I'm sorry but it seems like the SLK 55 AMG is better.
I love mine
i wanna this so bad,,,,,, saving money is hard!!!!!!!!!
You can do it! 😎
Thank You Micah for another Thrilling ride in the world of the Rich and famous hehe. However I say, buy a Miata, Or Fiat Spyder and put the rest of the money on a condo, or a home. What? already have a home? Take that trip around the world you've been always wanting to take with the other $30K or Buy a year old Mercedes and a NEW Miata then you can have more fun. Just ideas. ;)
What color?
Why didn’t you do the Supra ? Tell your boss we want you to do it .Ok .Thanks
the interior looks old
They should make a separate channel showcasing cars the REST OF US CAN FUCKING AFFORD ( * cough cough 30 year old econobox * cough cough )
I will only buy the car if Micah Muzio comes standard with the car .
I swear didn't they just review this? I swear I saw this video independently of when they reviewed the GLC 43. Clearly I am tripping.
Have to say I much prefer the 2016 SLK300.
4:14 a minor blooper he said Glc instead of slc
I’m not the only one who heard him say GLC right?
I had to manually wire a backup camera to my 2006 SLK350, and was considering the SLC 43, but it does not even have a BU camera, so it is off my list of replacements for my SLK. Also, it needs a bigger screen and heated steering wheel to make it worthwhile to consider. I want something better, and MB is still living in 2006 IMO. MB also needs to update the SL550/SL450/SL400 interior to have a larger screen (similar to the S interior). I won't buy the SL either until MB wakes up and makes it a decent interior. Also, get rid of that toy joystick of a gearshift. Nobody could possibly like that little thing. I gave this video a like, but it needs to add this info to provide better info for people before buying these cars.
SL is refreshed as you wish
@@Mark-rt6fy LOL - SL went to a ragtop and 4 seats. I don't want 4 seats. But, the SL did fine except those extra seats. Not sure what's up with that. No longer an SL IMO. Just a (really nice) family car now.
4:12
interior looks cheap
kk P look like a gla
You haven't been in one clearly, my parents own one. The buttons feel perfect to push, the racing seats are really really nice. The CF trim is just beautiful and feels so solid.
get a 718 and call it a day
Hot car
And that shhhhhhtiffness... :D
So. Much. Money. Wish I was rich
when you want a miata but dont want to look plebian.
"...And you only have 50 to 80k $..." wtf?
you can buy a 3-year-old SL550 for $50k
rather get the stingray
this car is not worth it
What's the best for you
Hey Mom, Can i borrow only $50, to $80 Gz ill pay you back in my after life !
4:14 GLC300.
Annnnnnnnd I can't afford it. :(
So like, he got hit by the car at 4:17 right? 😆
ctfu right, no way he stoped in time
They screwed the SLK which had a beautiful front and rear as this one definitely is aimed towards the feminine buyers while sounding muted!
20k max
too small, my dogs dont fit in there
Gadi dam koto
You're handsome.
A millionaires toy. They used to cost 40.000 bucks
No thanks, I choose my S2000 & ND Miata over this anytime any day. :)
Looks so dated. I can only see an old man or an old woman driving a Mercedes.
Deem M where are u from? Here in europe its a very status auto.
In USA everyone's dream is a Mercedes (Not everyone but if you own one people think you are wealthy)
4.6 0-60.... womp wompppppppp :(
meh, they should drop the V6 and make a beastly 4 cylinder. too expensive for what it is.
It's ugly.
and I can't afford it.
it's a two seater convertible, not a roadster, which is as useless as it can get. normal sized car with tiny trunk space, what the hell..
nothing can replace the SLK, definitely not this thing!
devon285 This is the SLK....just with a different name so that they can align models within various categories more easily.
SDav21 in that case I don't like the direction they're heading in..
SLK = sportish, light and short
SLC = sportish, light convertible/coupe ? lol
devon285 Nothing's changed here with the SLC. It IS an SLK just with tweaked headlamps and tail lights and new interior fabrics and colours. The SLK was also convertible.
SDav21 SLK's are short convertible roadsters, this just seems like a normal sized / shape car that's also convertible. I could be wrong but it surely does look much bigger than SLK models
devon285 Yes and this is that. It's got the same dimensions. All cars go through 2 stages in its usual lifecycle of 7 years. First they release the all new car, then approximately 4 years later they refresh it by tweaking the lights, bumpers, interior material quality etc to keep it fresh for 3 more years till the all new model arrives. This IS the old SLK in dimension and all. All they've done here was facelift it now and changed the name for future reference. It may look larger only because of the tweaks but small changes in certain parts can have a big impact on the car's looks. But it isn't a new car. It's just a new name.
