Thoughts on the new Mercedes C43 AMG? Downgraded to 2 cylinders seems like sacrilege for an AMG and the sound definitely took a hit but I’m still am a fan overall. Highly considering this v. M340 for my next car

It’ll still be a monster but I am with you and really hate the small displacement high boost trend. WHY NOT BOTH?!

If they could figure out the exhaust, I’d get it. But I’m in the same conflict. I want the Mercedes’ look and interior with the bmw engine.

Soo terrible because AMG always HAD the best exhausts!

Unfortunately for Mercedes-Benz, BMW still offers the B58 in the M340 and that’s probably one of the 6 cylinders ever made. That’s the only car I’d rather drive or I’m going full EV with a Model 3P

People underestimate the nutritional value of dust from a Model 3 Performance.

Sorry. Sorry. I thought you valued performance.

As a current C43 owner, I’d do the BMW. It’s a kind of underwhelming experience even with the v6
