Always like your side-by-side comparisons. On another note, some gripes about M-B current design language and styling...M-B needs to stop using the "tri-star" motif on the grille and taillights. I think it's tacky. Don't like the taillight "light bar"; it looks like it goes on an '80s or '90s Ford or some other car that I've seen with that particular design. And car manufacturers need to tone it down with digital dash boards. The rectangular dashboard looks odd and I think the "tacked-on" screens won't age well. I know that's what people want (or at least what the manufacturers think people want), but I think analog gauges are for the most part timeless and classy (not in a snooty way!). I love my R172 SLK55 with the dials and just the right amount of tech for my driving needs. It also has a real IWS analog dash clock rather than an image of one on the screen! Sometimes old tech is just timeless. Just my opinion!
Great video! E53 looks sporty and aggressive and 450 more relaxed and elegant. I think the $10k add’l is a no brainer if you can afford it. Btw those e53 wheels are incredible.
The CLE 53 certainly looks better, but I don't know if it's $10k (plus the extra maintenance cost) better. I'll be more interested in what the CLE 63 has on offer, especially if they bring over the V8 hybrid system. from the AMG GT and S class.
Thank you! The CLE53 all day. 450 isn’t bad either.
I love the CLE53 ❤ Muscular. Love the red interior!
Nice video. They are both beautiful but the presence of the CLE53 😍
i am getting CLE coupe soon. Thanks for your video. I was thinking between those two you posted lol
The 10k extra, definitely worth it 💪

AMG for sure. Thank you for side by side. I also like to see the new E class AMG vs standard!

Waaaaaaaay Better looking than BMWs offering..
Still miss the v8 c63 AMG 😢
Im not big on the single tail light look. But damn the front is just breathtaking
Perfect video...Thanks.
When does the 53 Cabrio arrive?
It says the toward the end of 2024 like the second half of the year so hopefully soon. I want this one to
I miss the older C63s that this replaced
Now do the same for a CLE 450 and AMG CLE 53 Cabrio (please, not another red AMG CLE 53 Cabrio, like every other video, I'm begging you).
I haven't had a CLE53 cab yet...but as soon as I do!
The only color for the CLE 53 is black with the red interior.
