i know old video but thought i would share my experience with a c32. i bought the cheapest one for sale in the united states (non rust belt), complete with auction past & reseller who had no idea about previous ownership. it’s needed a water pump due to the bearing getting wobbly, oil cooler seals, and a new drive belt due to getting oil on the old one. the seat control module was also causing a battery drain. so far i have fixed everything myself and the car is good to drive. the water pump was expensive due to being model specific but the oil cooler seals were cheap. i will say that these kind of electrical issues don’t seem to be a problem on japanese cars of the same vintage. but for what i paid i could not have gotten a good acura tl / rl / lexus gs350 which would be my choices from japan. happy motoring!
@@jaddenmp I just got one a few months ago, it has 155k miles. What would you recommend to look out for/replace as precaution? hope i can get mine to last as long as yours haha
@@JMSpeedshop I thought so as well! It was also development car and driven drive Renntech CEO as well. So happy to own, my first big purchase after college
Cat delete or sporty cats, resonator delete, if you can add some short or long headers, get the c32 full intake, remap (ask revtronic for a nice one) and that's it... If you want something a lot more extreme and expensive , 6MT conversion, standalone ecu, single turbo kit, nos...
C55 has a different front end . The complete front of the car is different that is a clk front the c klasse to have more room Then the in the c32. Have a look in of my c55 review video
@@JMSpeedshop i wouldn't call that a widebody if you rolled the fenders but okay. Fenders look almost the same as on my own C32. Love them styling IV SL rims tho'.
Yes and no... Lol Some of them are sweet and doesn't visit the workshop unless it's for maintenance (also my case)... And some of them are a real PITA cuz of bad owners/mechanics since the very beginning (have friends with c32s like this)

Nice 😎
I have the 2002 C32, super reliable to me. Almost at 300k miles ;)
IT really depends on the owner of the car. Some people have bad experience with IT . Maintenance is also a thing . 300k is alot
JMSpeedshop ! That’s very true! & I know some Mercedes that go up to 400k miles. The C32 is still going strong :)

Hyrum Snow sorry for the late responds but just the basic maintenance such as battery, alternator etc. really nothing too major.
@@Ganzo124 hows the c32 so far?
engine for eternity
Great review man I lovw this Chassic, I own a W203 C38 RennTech and love it... 3.8 bored engine instead of the supercharger 32's
that is a pretty rare car. i thought only brabus ade a 3.8s nice
@@JMSpeedshop I thought so as well! It was also development car and driven drive Renntech CEO as well. So happy to own, my first big purchase after college
Nice 👍
wow i think i've seen that c38 in a youtube video!! is it a rare purplish color ?? with black wheels
The wheels are from the CL65. Very nice and very expensive. Great Video
Yes Nice wheels. Thanks 👍
JMSpeedshop ! got them on my w211
Why would anyone take the bonnet emblem off? 🤦
Great car. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks 👌
Great car.
Those front brake discs are actually 345 mm, instead of the 335 mm that was specified in the video!
Oke thanks You right
335mm are from the Sport package.
I use to have a brand new 2003 C32 AMG the engine blow on it from all the pulley mods
Thats what happens when you go stacked without supporting mods
what advide would you give me to look at the car because i might go see one of those c32 amg
I have a clk 32 amg made by me from a clk 200 kompresor 2007 and a c 32 amg 2003
That's awesome
What mods can i put on my 2002 C240 Elegance? love the car, its great to drive, just want a bit more power or even just exhaust noise

Try to find a used kleemann m112 V6 supercharger system, really rare system, My opinion get a faster car if you want more power 😂😂😂
@@YUSKHAN Currently saving for a C55 or an E55
Get a C32. And sell the C240 to somebody who won't ruin it.
Buy another car man.
Hallo Can you tell me what color did you paint the wheels? Thanks
Dont have the paint code
Nice car
I have a clk 32 amg w209 and it is incredible and a c32 amg for parts
Clk 32 amg w209 what car is that clk is only in 55 63 amg Version
no such thing as a clk32, there's an slk32, but not clk, clk only N/A
Manny C Weiss it s made by me from a clk 200 k and c 32 amg powertrain
Denzel Chicorée its made by me from a clk 200kompresor and a c32 amg powertrain
203!! 🔥🔥💪🏻
the extra space in the engine compartment is there because they had to be able to fit a v8 as well, in the C55.
C55 has a different front end . The complete front of the car is different that is a clk front the c klasse to have more room Then the in the c32. Have a look in of my c55 review video
@@JMSpeedshop cool, will look. to me, they seemed like the exact same chassis, tbh.

@@JMSpeedshop cheers, mate!
There is hardly any extra space.
The title says widebody, where?
Wheel arches are widened on each side 5 cm
@@JMSpeedshop i wouldn't call that a widebody if you rolled the fenders but okay. Fenders look almost the same as on my own C32. Love them styling IV SL rims tho'.
Jesse Schwengle they definitely arent „just rolled“ . You are a Man of very low knowledge...
Is it THAT loud inside or its just me?
Can't really remember that
It is a little loud and kinda vibrates the car when you get on it. When stock its just about right for comfort
330mm not 335mm brakes in the front. :)
It is 345mm. The came on c32 c55 clk55 skl32 and clk500
These wheels alone are worth a small fortune!
Yes for sure.
ClubsportEvoluzione got em on the w211 now
I had one of these.. Great when they work. Most unreliable car i ever had
Yes and no... Lol Some of them are sweet and doesn't visit the workshop unless it's for maintenance (also my case)... And some of them are a real PITA cuz of bad owners/mechanics since the very beginning (have friends with c32s like this)
Fab's Garage very true. Mine is almost at 300k miles. Nothing but reliable to me :)
My C32 wagon is on 206k miles and still sweet. Service them properly and they just keep on going.
That Dutch accent is really throwing me off
Thanks . That was my goal
