@@KevinKickChannel C257 is a gloried A class, C218 was the last great CLS. what people are mad about the facelifts are how emotionless the design is. the flowing design language of the platinum age (2015-2019) has been abandoned.
I drove the old one at a track day in London 2 years ago.. I will never forget that incredible sound... I have been saving my pennies, so disappointed that they messed around with it, though I love the front exterior on the new. Great channel!!
It was so surprising how loud this exhaust system was! Instantly giving feedback & you can play it like an instrument 😍 Thank you so much for your kind comment Brian! Looking forward for your next comments mate 💪🏼
Car reviewers talk about how outdated the pre face-lift entertainment/info tech as if drivers need to use it for software engineering. Dude all we do is listen to music, navigate and check information with it.
Thank you so much my friend! It makes me really happy to hear this! Please also don’t forget about MercBenzKing, he is a really good friend & one of the best! 👌🏼
Both are absolutely stunning cars. I love the last 3 gens W212 is my favourite but I love the evolution of the E class, all 3 models are absolute animals
I currently have the 2019 E63S and I am trying to decide whether or not to upgrade. I have to wait for the facelift to arrive in the US in order to go see it in person and compare it to my existing car. Here is what I have noticed from videos, articles and general research: 1. Facelift is missing the IWC clock 2. Facelift removed the ability of the driver to be able to control the passenger seat. The button that enabled that function has been removed in all the videos that I have studied 3. No difference in hp or torque. If they had bumped it up slightly, the decision to upgrade would have been easy 4. I am not sold on the exterior looks of the facelift. I prefer the exterior of my 2019 E63S. But I will make the final call on this when I see the car in person after it arrives in the United States 5. I prefer the design of the 2019 steering wheel, especially the metallic buttons on the wheel. However, I do like the two controls on the facelift's steering wheel for controlling driving modes and the other adjustable controls 6. Not a big fan of the mousepad. Prefer the dial controller 7. The facelift version has removed the 3-zone climate control. I have 3 zone climate control in my 2019 version 8. MB-UX and the augmented navigation are far superior in the facelift. MB-UX is currently the only real driver for me to upgrade to the facelift I dont believe the US spec will have the OPF. However, if it does and the car sounds muted, then that might may my decision for me. I would rather have the loud exhaust and miss out on MB-UX than to have the MB-UX with a muted car sound. Off course, getting an Akrapovic exhaust on the facelift might solve this problem. I was hoping that Mercedes would have made the decision to upgrade to the facelift an easy one. However, with all the "nickel and diming" such as removing the IWC clock, eliminating 3 zone climate control, remove of other features, coupled with a muted exhaust note and no bump up in power, I am not sure its worth upgrading. MB-UX is the only real reason to get the facelift
Definitely pre face lift, but the new infotainment system is awesome, I wish it could simply be upgraded with an update. I don’t know why they didn’t include the clock in the new model.
The old one is an icon but the new one looks way more aggressive! It would be the most perfect AMG when we got the sound of the old & the look & infotainment of the new😍
Facelift looks much better because of the aggressive design, reminds me of my W204 C63. Prefacelift front isn't aggressive at all and doesn't have that distinct angry looking lights which Mercedes is known for.
@@sashach1872 No it doesn't lol? Not even the eyebrow in the light is the same shape. The hood is different, front bumper design, and the entire shape of the car doesn't resemble an A45s at all.
i have to agree with you the preface lift front looks way better than the new one and the face lift rare looks better. i would take the preface lift one
The pre-facelift with the new panamericana grill and the diffusor from the facelift would be the perfect car. The biggest point for the pre-facelift is the no-opf sound.
The sound on the pre-facelift 👍 The sound of the facelift car sounds hollow I will say I do prefer the rearlights on the pre-facelift but I prefer the headlamps on the new one no clock why such a nice touch to be perfectly honest not sure about the steering wheel in the new one looks very busy but I suppose you would get used to that and as for soft limiters give me strength 😆great video
@@hasangenc2922 i heard after removing the OPF, only Mercedes can get rid of CEL/Codes that show up..is that true or can a tune shop get rid of that as well? Thanks.
@@Lifesaplay2 look around Forums for that, for Bimmers like the M2 Comp or the R8 V10 Performance its already common in Europe to delete Opfs. Don't think its a big problem for the Amg, but ask in forums or tuners.

I really enjoyed your comparison HOWEVER, you missed one big item between the two to compare. The Burmester 3D $4500 upgraded audio sound system. Please compare them side by side.

Very good review brotha constructive criticism would be when your driving it don’t put your foot on the gas and let off do that a few times then give a long pull through 3-4 gears
Super Video! Ganz klar der VorMopf. Noch besser ist zwar der Sound des VorMopf C63, aber der E63 ist auch super. Allerdings muss man auch hier ganz klar differenzieren. So gut hört sich der E63 nur bis einschließlich MJ18 an. Ab MJ19 ist auch der VorMopf leiser. Sehr gut kannst du die MJ am Lenkrad erkennen. Das Lenkrad, welches man im Edition 1 sieht, wurde ab MJ19 durch ein etwas moderneres ersetzt. Dann kam auch der OPF in den Vormopf und es wurde leiser. Ich bin derzeit auch auf der Suche nach einen E63s, um meinen C63s zu ersetzen. Der muss unbedingt MJ17/18 sein, Performance Sitze und Keramikbremse haben, schwarz, selenitgrau metallic oder magno sein... Alles gar nicht so einfach :D
I like the older one
Agreed

@@mr.benz really? i like the new front grill, just slap on the rear tail lights from the other e class
Exactly! Old gen E exterior was one of the best designs on sedans ever!
@@justinn568 the vertical grill slats are very nice, but the old grill shape with the headlights make it better overall imo
Their interior is basically the same😂
Even the look of the Old is 100 times better than the new - yes it’s kinda outdated BUT it’s timeless while the new one looks more like a CLS 🤭😻
Nah CLS doesn't lool like that, it's the CLA that looks like a shorter CLS
I don’t see anything that’s outdated on the old one tbh. New one looks less muscular / aggressive. Looks smaller and less noticeable

I like the new one more
The new version rear lights belong to an Infiniti or a Ford not an AMG!
I agree, looks very feminine.
All the new models look like bigger A-classes, and they've ruined the S-class interior.
@@oliver24x New S interior is kinda cool. But yeah, the old one was 100x better.
I defenitely prefer the "old" E63!
the older one looks more muscular/sporty and elegant/luxurious imo.. The new facelift lost its luxurious face of their icon..
the 6.2 still got the best sound

Exactly my friend!
Sind wir ehrlich. Die sind beide einfach geil.
💯
Der alte hört sich viel besser an als der neue
