Do it! I'm a few years behind you. Having an identical 23 plate CLA 45s. This CLE 53 really appeals to me as the natural progression. So, seeing you put the same attention to detail into a CLE as you did the CLA, would be great. But it all depends on whether we get a CLE 63 (or rather if it's the same engine as the C63). Keep up the good work!
depending on what engine the 63 will get, im trading in my golf R+ some extra cash of course for one of these two. Always loved coupes, finally a bold agressive design with a good engine and retaining the classiness of mercedes.
Don't sell the Golf R !! I had a white one and really miss it. However do love the 2020 Silver 4 Dr V6 C43 I currently have. Only sold Golf for the V6 sound ! Merc 9 speed box not the best as will jerk sometimes pulling away. Economy have seen 37.8mpg this year. Amazing!
Definitely sell your golf for this beast. I'm hoping I'll be able to get one late 2024. Low key I'm hoping for this to be a future classic as it's first model in a whole new merc class.
I bought a 2019 E53 Coupe in June and its fabulous. I get so many compliments about the car and sound. Even had someone pull up alongside me this evening at the traffic ligjts to say how good it sounds.. Its got the performance exhaust. Not keen on the facelift one or that steering wheel so I'll be keeping mine for a few years. This CLE looks beautiful though so may consider a used one in future. Great Video.
I love the 2019 E53. That generation of E class was pure class and the AMG variants were all amazing. Great value for money now also. If not the E53 I’d consider a E63s or even one of the last C63s with the v8. Enjoy them while we can!
Same! I have a 2023 E53 coupe because I knew it was being discontinued, pops and bangs stock! With some burbles on downshift, race mode and performance exhaust
I got the 2023 E53 coupe the last before it discontinued can't tell you how much compliments I get a week love the pops and bangs after my lease is up I'm definitely getting the 53gt 4dr coupe
Let’s hope it also ticks the price box. Having owned a c43 coupe and now a E300 coupe, I’m concerned the CLE53 is going to be C class quality for E Class AMG money. It should have frameless windows (no b pillar) like the E class and they should ditch those touch steering controls, as they simply don’t work.
You were one of the main channels I used when considering my purchase of a C43. I absolutely love it and this CLE 53 is looking like my next addition so I say you get it and share the journey brother! Great job on this video as always and more to come.
I’ve had a 53 AMG and e53. I thought it very good but you buy an AMG for other reasons imho. After it I got the AMG gt 4 door. It’s right this would benefit from an electric motor to bridge the turbo lag. But best AMG, I don’t agree. But as an entry into the performance side of merc it’s a good starter.
I wonder how the modifications to this car will be. Especially how it will impact the sound. I bet it’ll be pretty fast tuned and sound good with some downpipes.
Hey, thank you. Best advice I can give you is to find something you really enjoy and are passionate about then use the passion to work really hard every day. I grew up very poor and it took me many years with lots of ups and downs. There’s no real time frame since everyone’s path is different. You have to set a goal and work towards it every day.
Hey man! Love your c43 videos and I’m actually looking to get one myself. But I have a question that I can’t find the answer for anywhere. Is there a difference in exhaust sound between the 2019 model and after 2019? I heard something about the emission regulations but wasn’t sure if that was just something relating to the pre facelift to facelift change? Thanks a lot, Tom
Hey Tom, Happy to help. There is the preface lift models which are easily identified by the rear of the car (facelift has the quad circle pipes each size while pre has the standard curved rectangles) I have a video on the sound difference here: th-cam.com/video/sezKhK2ZFPA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=tbAypxA5XIdKVnJI The only other sound difference to take into account is there’s an optional extra called the AMG performance exhaust that was a factory option from new. This changes the sound drastically by adding all the nice pops and crackles. It’s easy to check if a car has this option. If there’s an exhaust button in the center console it has it, if not it was not speced from factory. Hope this all helps.
@@ABAUTOAMGwow thank you for the very fast response lol. Ah I see, is there any difference in sound after the facelift? e.g. would a 2019 facelift with performance exhaust sound the same as a 2020 or 2021 with the performance exhaust as well?
@@LockDownLife No problem! Your comment popped up just as I was on so thought I’d reply :) There’s no difference from 2019 onwards they should all sound the same 👍
A lot of people are comparing this to the Golf R or the CLA45s. I drove the later and the CLE53 back to back. Compared to the first two, the CLE53 drives like a boat. Sure it’s fast but it doesn’t handle well. And no wonder, it’s 4400lbs and 192 inches! It bigger than it looks like in pictures. Sure it’s pretty inside and out. So if you want a grand tourer, it could be for you. The only reason it has rear wheel steering is because it’s so big.
Baffled for the praise on the interior. It’s absolutely covered in cheap gloss plastic with a giant screen and no mechanical climate controls. The E53 that this replaces is leagues better in quality and functionality.
@@JR007xYour wife and I have good taste! 😂👍🏼 My C43 is the BEST! I’ve also had a SL500 and an SLK350. The C43 has the best “drive” of them all! Great handling and power.
This car has my interest back into AMG's but i wont buy one new with the forecast of depreciation, you only have to look at the C43 to see how they have dropped from 70k down to high 40's early 50's in a year or so....
The used market is finally going down but being so high for 2 years it pushed new prices sky high. I’m not sure what is going to happen next year. If the new prices remain high people will stop buying new cars, then supply will drop again and the used cars will go back up. Vicious circle!
In 1990, I read in science magazines about hybrid technology and I got excited. So I told this girl I met that in the future we'd be driving such a car. She said that was a stupid idea. 😵💫😁😀😂😃😄
MB needs to let us turn off rear-steering, I personally think it should ONLY work at speeds below 10 mph. Rear-steering make the ass end feel disconnected from the road. And I don't want the car to feel more stable at high speeds, I want the car to feel alive when driving fast... that's the whole point of driving fast, to induce adrenaline!
I think this is Magno graphite grey which will be a satin finished factory paint. I hear you will also be able to choose a satin blue too which will look really nice.
Exterior and engine are great, the interior not so much 🤔 The touch sensitive pads on the steering wheel don’t really work, they’re just too finicky and that stupid tablet centre console is a disaster ergonomically! It’s fine to use a tft screen to display data, but to input it you need tactile dials and buttons that you can feel without taking your eyes off the road, you can memorise the positions of physical buttons/ dials etc, you have no chance with a touch screen unless you take your eyes off the road for too long! Beautiful car apart from this fault 🤷🏻♂️
@@ABAUTOAMG I priced a CLE 450 with all extras and it came in at £75k so I’d think £90k is about right full spec but we will see, problem now is so many are selling because interest rates are killing repayments and like Porsche the prices have collapsed and they are not selling.
Yep, it’s tricky to know what’s going to happen with the market. The inflated used costs made new prices higher but now the used prices are finally dropping back down due to the production times coming back up.
Till the car sounds good when inside, that’s what matters to me. And it sounds as it should on the inside. Why disturb the surroundings just to feed your ego. It’s good policy makers are becoming mindful of this - because some motorheads with their loud exhausts are just a nuisance for everyone else.
Great video Adam! Looking forward to you getting this CLE 53 and reviewing it, unless the CLE 63 comes and surprises us all with more cylinders, but highly likely to be 4 cylinders again like the C63.
Thanks Jon, Fingers crossed I can get my hands on one. If the CLE63 has a V8 then that would be amazing but I agree and think they will use the 4 cylinder hybrid setup from the C63 sadly.
V6 engine is very good for travel but c63es is faster smooth vs any V6 or v8 for me c63es and this new cle53 both is top mid money good choice for Europe remember guys best tuned the make a lot fix the new c63es sedan is better agility stability flat lower platform and never spin c63es all many high AMG all them spin wheel thay why I like more c63es sec cle53 let see test drive I agree sound V6 ofc is always better that c63es but no matter when you live Europe you can easily fix smooth or high but no matter all secret is agility stability flat antispin system wheel like is haldex gen mother of all spin wheel system top is cupra formentor VZ use haldex gen sec is bmw 340i but new model and Mercedes c63es and Volvo all this cars I trust of quality road stability flat never spin wheel.
We know what engine it’s getting, it’s the same(ish) as the current 4 cylinder turbo-electric. Anyone considering the C63 post V8 era should just go full electric or go home. This 6 pot is a decent middle ground between the V8 and full electric
@themercedestraveler9566 I'm an old geezer, and I prefer a more "old fashioned" set up in terms of engine, interior controls, and less computer assisted functions. But, to each her/his own and change is inevitable.
@@ABAUTOAMG Thanks… if it’s the new GLE i6 engine + mild hybrid under such a light car.. tune for sports…easily under 4 seconds .. Mercedes is splitting and differentiating their models according to class. If C43 or 63 gets a 6 cylinder then the CLE don’t get all the spot light which is intentionally needed. It’s good they draw the lines here..
@@keavy2163 That makes sense, The higher you go up the ladder the better the engine which hopefully includes having more cylinders, I can see the CLE 63 having a V6 or maybe even a V8
I don’t understand how this is nearly 500 lbs heavier than an 8 cylinder engine c63. I mean I can understand some aspects but Mercedes really needs to cut the weight down charging the price they do. Fast ass cars and amazing engines but the weight just is a little let down
@@Foregrlz i can understand that, but i know for a fact they can make their cars and or specifically the c 63 models sub 3700 if they really wantd too but i assume if they did it would maybe be a more competitive option to buy given power/weight ratio compared to other models
@mattmartin9867 I'm new to all this but I believe they've committed to this mild hybrid setup and will only expand on it .....just like iPad touch screen info systems.....or digital tachometer screens ....not going back to analog dials anytime soon.....just like everything else in life , BIGGER and BIGGER we get !!!
The V8 C63 prices have dropped back down now. Both the w204 and 205 C63s are crazy good value now compared to the new ones. It’s hard to pick a new AMG over a used V8. I’m considering getting one of the V8’s too while you still can.
Best new AMG ? Unless it’s wearing the 63amg badge it’s not a real amg As a previous owner of a c63 Mercedes ruined their Amg lineup years ago with all these fake amg models
It’s the price hike in general. You can order a C63 now and it costs over £100k with a few options which is a massive increase from the price of the previous gen. So this increasing to £85-90k is likely.
correct, that is what I am doing right now. trying to find a C63S that I can nab with lower miles to keep for the next 5 years while they figure this all out
Those AMG sports seats look amazing but are far from comfortable, you should check things out yourself before you make such statements in an otherwise very good review, thanks
Hey :) I did a full owners review of the AMG performance seats. I suspect them to be much like these. See here: th-cam.com/video/71W5RZo7mkE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=DgdkTEXu_YZVYdql

The V8 C63 prices have dropped back down now. Both the w204 and 205 C63s are crazy good value now compared to the new ones. It’s hard to pick a new AMG over a used V8. I’m considering getting one of the V8’s too while you still can.
C63 I suppose.the C class is a flagship for Mercedes i believe
C class a flagship, what you gon' say 'bout GT 63 and the S class?
C interior with an E exterior at E prices.
with a hybrid boost system... So makes sense it would be in E prices
Best new AMG ? Unless it’s wearing the 63amg badge it’s not a real amg
As a previous owner of a c63 Mercedes ruined their Amg lineup years ago with all these fake amg models
Under rated comment here. Yup. Mercedes should stick to making real Amg's. I still own 2 real ones. I'll keep em
Why are people expecting it to be more expensive than the c63s( which is better in almost every way
It’s the price hike in general. You can order a C63 now and it costs over £100k with a few options which is a massive increase from the price of the previous gen. So this increasing to £85-90k is likely.
C63 is a 4 cylinder😂
Looks like the M4. Similar side view, similar taillights, and similar engine. That's almost an exact copy.
Without the ridiculous grille?
Or just buy the old v8 😊
That’s one of my options for sure too :)
correct, that is what I am doing right now. trying to find a C63S that I can nab with lower miles to keep for the next 5 years while they figure this all out
Those AMG sports seats look amazing but are far from comfortable, you should check things out yourself before you make such statements in an otherwise very good review, thanks
Hey :) I did a full owners review of the AMG performance seats. I suspect them to be much like these. See here: th-cam.com/video/71W5RZo7mkE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=DgdkTEXu_YZVYdql
i think i stay with my old 996 turbo...
It would look better if it was a convertible
The lights look very basic imo. Compared to bmws lazer 3d looking lights they look way more mean. This is still a cool car sucks its only a 4.1 sec 0-60
The new boat interiuer looks really ugly
Let's hope cle 63 is 577bhp V8, no hybrid and that rubbish
my next amg after the 45s
Got one in black, great motor
Pathetic that most amgs now have a 4 cilinder
Looks - excellent.
Engine - obviously inferior to the 63AMG engines
those wheels...... Ewwwwww
300pound mod voids the warranty
Pin that video about mod u did to ur car.
Thanks! Good suggestion il post it as a comment now and pin it 👍
To slow for 170k in Aus
There will be a v8 version of the c63.
53 is a waste of money than
Alfa QV > G80m3 > modern C63/ CLE
Bwahahaha ha. Are you 12?
@@lincolnmarklt just watch Auto Fanatic thats a carguy who knows about cars and had a lot of cars and he knows whats the best , he owns a Mercedes GTR , Mustang , Ferrari , Had 3 Alfa QV and 1 BMW G80 and he sold the G80 for the QV and bought it again 3 time.
G80 m3 is def way ahead of them all in performance i think in looks aswell but thats subjective. Bmw has the meanest best headlights in the game
proof they want to demasculate society sounds so quiet
☘️💛
what a bunch of platitudines. this is the best piece of sh!t in the parking lot.
They will be back with V8 in 2025
