I got the glc 63 first edition it with graphite grey magno and test drove both 43 and 63, the 63 was a more fun drive and can’t recommend it more. Has the wow feel inside and out.

[@brownhairydog6472]

I would have thought they'd run with a detuned six for this model

[@mafazrahman1900]

what was that ABC AMG in GLC tf lol

[@YMoney-]

Idk why they’re trying to push the coupe trucks so much. Always hated em

[@konkombotis5549]

As a previous owner of past three AMGs V8s, anything with a 43 badge is not worthy of an AMG badge. Now, you have a fake engine sound filtering through the front speakers similar to the BMWs. If you are after a small to medium family SUV, consider the KIA, Toyota, or Mazda CX-70 and save yourself a bucket full of cash.

What did you own?

[@konkombotis5549]

@rngesus992 Yes. Brought the first as a second owner and the others new. Apart from the E63, all had mechanical issues, expensive to insure and service.

Non of the cars you name are even in the same ballgame. If you have the budget for a GLC43, you may as well go BMW X4 m40i or the new X3 M50.
I had a testdrive with a CLE 53, but unfortunatly it can't clear my driveway (too low). I'll probably go for the X3 M50 because of that, simply because at this price, I don't want a souped up 4 cylinder.

[@christis1975a]

The problem with Europe unfortunately 😢 soon will see and Ferrari with similar engines😂 ...low emissions policy 💩

[@bertskidmore5506]

Sounds like fake engine noise generated inside..

[@purpytwinzo4290]

i mean that’s basically what it is

[@Iron883Man]

These 4 cyl line ups are just rediculous. I'd understand if they were genuinly more economical than a 6 cylinder, but they are not.
Just to compare where I live (Belgium) between full optioned cars:
GLC43: 115.000 EUR + 11.000 EUR on road tax, average 10,7l/ 100km
X3 M50: 95.000 EUR + 4.000 EUR on road tax, average 8,5l/100 km
I'm sorry, but I'm not paying nearly 30k EUR more for a 4 cyl when you can buy one of the best 6 cyl around for less.

[@user-fp1vm5ev1u]

Overpriced piece of german crap mobile for people with more money than sense. Why would anyone buy this over a Model Y Performance is beyond me.

[@arxsh1]

Just say you don’t have the money

[@aryarock22]

enjoy your microwave on wheels

[@eddyfischer7712]

Try trading in your 'Model Y' and see if anyone will take. Love the GLC 43.
