exactly lmao i have one and its great asf

@@realradicalz5608 is it tuned?

Nope. It's most likely because they were bullied at school.

Best sounding computer

C43 AMG is not an AMG

umA eSports I have c43 amg. Real sound. Not write stupud things loser.

umA eSports jealous

Sounds much better than the new R6 3.0 from Mercedes.

I just picked up a lease on the bimmer a couple days ago. Fuck it's a nice car, and it doesn't sound bad at all, love the braps on full throttle shifts and pops on decel. Maybe a tad too quiet (coming from a straight piped vette), but a bolt on exhaust past cats should do the trick without any issues since it's a lease in my case, I'll just hold onto the stock exhaust. As for comfort driving, the ZF is awesome as well. And imo it looks much better than the other 2 cars in this vid, which are a bit more "girly" looking.

dodoz44 what color did you get? I got the portimao blue they mentioned in this video. I’ll see if I can upload a video on my channel of it. The pops the car makes between shifts and when you rev it is awesome

@@Mo-qs9oc Yay, we've got the same color. It's beautiful in person :) The dealer I got it at JUST had the car arrive the day I picked it (didn't even show on their website yet), and it had almost every single option I wanted to get (except for wireless phone charging and Vernasca seats, although the new Sensatec truly feels amazing compared to what it felt like in my '16 2 series). Black 791m wheels. Gotta tint the windows soon and play around with plastidip on the wheels, maybe burnt copper for a few weeks? Btw, try folding the rear seats down, makes the exhaust sound a tiny bit louder.

dodoz44 do a video of it, I want to see what it looks like. I’ll try to post one today or tomorrow. Gotta clean the car and working on getting a camera gimbal to get steady footage.

@@dodoz44 Check out the video I put up on my page, im not a pro but shows the car lol kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gsWldqiLu7HFYYk.html

RoHunter underrated comment

RoHunter somewhat agree... lol

Sounds about accurate

BM and Merc are just simple veterans. Audi is a volkswagen

It's fun to drive but that ride is way stiffer than you'd expect.

@@stretch90 stiffer?

@@EUNextHDx yeah, the C43 has a crazy stiff suspension and doesn't really feel like a luxury car because of it. Fun to drive tho.

if you want that smoothness you'd go for the C400

why did u sell

ive had e55 back in the day, e400, audi s4 2016, and now 2019 c43 amg. by far the best ive driven too clean and legit high torque output it wont stop pulling never feels like its out of room driving at 70 then 2 gears later your doing 170

you should try a 63 then.

But it's slow and has a tacked on ipad lol

The Audi 3.0 v6 is also amazing! Large overhead with tuning just like the b58

@Jack I've seen the B58 Tuned in the m340i to compete with an E63 which is comical.

Yup... Just map the M340i and leave the RS and AMG in the dust! B58 wins this easily!

@@KepiBryantYou can tune the M276 and EA839 in the C43 and S4 and do the same. The EA839 can easily handle more than double the factory output just like the B58.

@@PapiAndreyyou know what you are talking about. The new 3.0t is insane and can do 700whp on a hybrid turbo like the b58. B9 S4 is an underrated car

I’m debating between the C43 or M340i

@@CristianAlvarez-fw6xk u do compromise a lil bit of quality built in the Merc but it's an absolute lunatic kinda like a mini 4 door muscle car frm Germany the bmw is a car guy's car who loves to DRIVE bmw hands down has the most playful drive train, most performance oriented built chassis /frame its the only one that 50/50 weight distributed so if y really like to push to the limits yet nit compromise on quality of the built 3 serious is fr u

@@CristianAlvarez-fw6xkwhat did you get?! I’m debating bewteeen the two as well lol

@@grandmastagrimm8773 Honestly, I’d say the M340i is the one to go for. I considered a C43 AMG also but I just feel the driving dynamics are so much better on the M340i, even with xDrive (standard here in the UK). More aggressive engine than C43 AMG esp with sport plus and shifter to the left. Just feels ready to jump. Interior cabin is sturdier too - no engine rattle! Suspension is firmer than I expected even with adaptive suspension or on comfort, but for me I like a sportier feel. But ultimately, test drive both! Sometimes you just fall in love with a car and who knows, you might enjoy the C43 AMG more. I just know that generally after test driving an M340i people tend to be sold hahaha!

Well the badge is now more like a model number which it is. Get on with it, move on. Things are way too complicated in the engine bay then it was before. What did you want it to say 3.0LturboZF8spdawdblue?

@@NBASFAN Calm down

Just like when an AMG C63 was a 6.3 liter? Now it's a 4.0. Times change. The badges are real in the sense of a model. Yes, I used to enjoy looking at a 330 knowing it was a model 3 with the 3 liter. But now I enjoy researching the cars deeper to see what might be lurking under the hood.

nthnkng33 you’re right. I like learning and researching cars deeper. The C63 was a 6.2 V8. Mercedes marketed it as a 6.3

Yeah but hard to name for all these models sadly because in what way are you gonna badge all the different same engine turbos... Only thing i despise is when the base level car is already misbadged. An A180 is an A130 after all...

Agree 100%! 👍

I think I am in the same situation you were in. I would prefer the C63 (2013 as newer model years are out of budget), but I think the C43 would be a great consolation pick. I live in Pittsburgh so the AWD would also be a plus.

I have an Audi A6 3.0 TDI and it is such a smooth car. It is a perfect daily. I would have gotten an S4 if I didn't already have an A6.

I've owned a (pulley swapped/tuned) B8.5 for the last five years and while I'm ready to move on to something else, it's been a great, great car to me. I'd never owned an automatic in my life until this car, and only ended up buying it due to scarcity of proper spec manuals, but the DSG was excellent, and surprised me. The Drive select dampers in my car definitely make the car quite harsh, I'm not sure if the B9 is generally softer, but I was a bit surprised to hear that. Given the move away from manual/DSG to a conventional auto only is another sign that the S4 is more about comfort than anything else though, and I was sad to see it go. Ultimately, for the same price as a new S4, I'm buying an RS3, I'll take the interior size penalty, I'll deal with haldex over true quattro, because it's fast as hell, understated, and sounds incredible. If the S4 is going to keep getting softer it's time they bring the RS4 back to North America, the RS5 Sportback is cool but I just want an excessively fast, boring looking sedan that non car people don't look twice at.

B.C. it is incredible that the rs3 is comparable in price to the s4, it’s one hell of a car for the money, you will definitely enjoy it!

M340i smokes it for power and handling.

Yeah.. I don't think Audi gave these guys the Sport package(Red Calipers) with Sport Suspension, and Rear Torque Vectoring Differential. Along with Dynamic Steering.

When you buy of those you buy the right to park like an absolute asshole. The bigger the car, the bigger the hole. You can't beat X6 owners, they are the scum of the heart when it comes to parking.

This squabbling over engine sound so juvenile and irrelevant.

@@mimaz7155 nice opinion

@@Taybrenn Nah. They are just silly.

Thanks!

There’s an optional exhaust switch which was on in the video. When the C43 is in comfort mode it’s exhaust note is very quiet without the loud crackle.

With the valves closed it feels like a C300. It’s a great car, I absolutely love it.

im very big fan of MERCEDES for years but now in this class im agree with you

I test drove 2020 s5, 2020 m340i and 2020 C43 coupe and frankly all 3 suspension ride similar. Maybe MB tune c43 to be a little softer for 2020. In the end I took 2020 C43 coupe home because its has way better performance than Audi and BMW. C43 feels more like a real sport car. Try it for yourself.

@@user-jf6fs7ko4j As a valet driver, before the world ended, I've actually driven all of these cars several times since my initial comment. I obviously haven't driven them at proper speed but I got a general feel for all of them over bumps and dips and heard the exhaust notes. The Audi felt like the best calm cruiser with its light steering, quiet exhaust, very well damped ride, and smooth drivetrain. It also felt like the highest quality interior although the Merc and BMW are also very high quality. I could see how the Audi would be a bit boring though. The Merc felt the most sporty even driving at like 30 mph. Steering was quick and direct, the ride was stiffer than the others but still very livable as you alluded to, and the exhaust and drivetrain felt way more aggresive than the others. The BMW kinda split the difference between the Audi and Merc on everything except I feel like the BMW had the best steering feel and probably the smoothest engine. I'd probably still lean BMW because it seems like the best balance of the Audi and Merc and I like the looks the best. Anyways, congrats on buying that beast of a Merc! Wish I could afford these cars rn lol

@@burakacar2854 It's still small enough and considering they are charging prices higher than 5 series 1,5 gens ago, it's fine you get more space. As long as they come back with a 2 series, because the fwd 1 series won't make for a good M car.

I did too, love the car

Someone close to me had an older S4... proved to be a really great car! I test drove an AMG C32 long ago. It was definitely faster than my E46 (which I love), but frankly I think I would have taken the Audi. To me the C32's engine really lacked the refinement of the BMW.

what 'attention' do you get with a c43? i had a 63 and one of the things about it is it doesn't visibly stand out from the rest of the mercedes c class lines as it passes by.

@@davec8730 I get your point and the AMG cars aren't exotics or even like driving a 911. But the Audi has a slightly lower profile than the C class AMGs, particularly the 43 or 63 coupe. The AMG is flashier, less conservative, and draws more of a macho, insecure reaction from other rockhead male drivers wanting to pass or challenge you. Or maybe I just became a bigger jerk when I got that car .. always a distinct possibility. Anyway, I ended up buying a Chevy truck instead.

@@ocan1033 i've had both the 911 and the c63. the 911 was the more 'all round' sports supercar, but the c63 more brutal. the 911 was all wheel drive and more sure footed than the standard 911. but on the shabby roads around here the 63 when in 'sport plus' and heavy acceleration went along like skimming a stone over a pond, it touched the road every now and then, which was far from reassuring.

@@davec8730 I used 'sport plus' mode only a handful of times when I had that car. But you can't really put the AMG cars in the same category as a 911 as far as handling goes. I see them more as a kind of muscle car. They handle adequately but aren't going to corner or hold like the Porsche. What does the 911 cost now? Factoring for depreciation and heavy snowfall this year, I'm content with my truck.

How is it driving around in comfort mode people say it’s jerky is that true
