A fantastic review! I bought the E43 after 10 frustrating years with 5 new Jaguars (problems, rattles etc.).This E43 is a "dual personality car".The perfect comfortable car for daily use, combined with a very sporty powerful drive! But always controllable under all weather conditions thanks to the 4 wheel drive.And indeed, the sound is great...but please 10% more would be fantastic!
YES! Couldn't agree more. The E43 is stunningly wonderful especially inside. There's really nothing like it. The black one is strikingly gorgeous and that V6 growl sounds better than a farting V8. Looks distinctive and fabulous yet sporty and sinister. Literally my favorite AMG of ALL TIME!
It might be sounding stupid but your reviews and the drives "exploring south africa" video make me want to visit ZA. Thumbs up for this quality und greets from bavaria!!
I have this car and absolutely love it. I couldn't wait for the E63 because I needed a car ASAP, and I didn't really feel like spending $400 extra a month just for more power which I didn't really need. Let me tell you, the 400HP BiTurbo still blows most anything else out of the water at a light. In Sport + mode it sounds good, not a V8 good, but good, and that's really the only thing where the E63 would top.... but it wasn't quite worth the extra $40,000. I got a great deal and got $7,500 off sticker. If money was no object and they are both available, sure, get the E63....but the E43 is one hell of a car, as it is.
I leased a 2018 model and I agree. I really can't drop the money that you need for an E63s. That's an amazing car but is over 1.5 times the price of the E43. So, really a different class of vehicle. I compared it to the C63s which was close in price and kind of settled on the "This already has more power than I could ever use and the C63s is a little bit more boy racer than I wanted clients to see me driving. I love the car, it's really fun to drive and also is really comfortable and cool. I would get the E63s if I won the lottery, however.
I just ordered a 2018 E43 sedan, drove a demo and fell in love, coming out of a 2014 CLS 550, which is changing its body in 2019 and going hybrid straight 6, which is not for me, and didn't wasn't a 18 which will be the old body in 5 mos, if the E class still made a 550 version, I would have taken that, I prefer the 8 cylinder, till I drove this car, unreal, I mean it's just fabulous, can't wait to get it
7:05 "Shift you idiot, shift!" So if that's what those indicators are saying, I guess the automakers have finally found a way to use a certain language about consumers without the consumers knowing it. Hhmmm.
Great review, thanks :-) I agree-it’s not brutal or bonkers like the old E AMGs (the ones that used a V8 in 5.5 or 6.2 L format). However, this E43 AMG 4-Matic develops the tradition of Benz’s V6 to a peak-a brilliant machine-an intelligent compromise and affordable fun :-)
Nice Review. Great car!! I have a 2018 C43 AMG and there are no rattles and squeaks. The cabin is actually quite quiet. I also think the exhaust on the C43s is muccch louder than the Es.
I'm waiting for mine to arrive, ordered March 31, arriving this week, I hope I'm gonna like it, cause I didn't really want an AMG, didn't have any choice in my price range, wanting 400 HP, they no longer produce E550, models, I had a 14 CLS 550, loved it, 18 body old car now, 19 straight 6 Hybrid, I'll pass, so I ordered a E43, nicely appointed, however there was a mistake made, left out Ambient sound deadner, got soft close doors, error, now a guy that doesn't want to hear that exhaust all day, may not like the car, gotta see, my dealer told me it's ok, he can sell it if I don't want it, there are no E43s on the East coast optioned like mine, either the noise reduction, is have to wait 3 more months for a 19, summers over at that point, no rush then, so I'm kinda screwed, I hope the exhaust doesn't bother me, I'm not a teenager, it's obnoxious to me
Dreaming of this cars is good for your health!I got obsessed after I bought the E43. This car is so amazing, so sporty, so well made, so classy inside and out,...OK STOP, this is not good for our health! :)
Are the C- Class assembled in South Africa...?? All that rattles and squeeks.. A sign of questionable build quality of SA assembled Mercs?? This E-Class looks great.
You buy AMG because you like hot sauce on your chicken wings hahaha.. Nice video. I like this car. Sounds way better than the BMW 540i. Even looks better
Thansg for asking Ciro about what ithing. Remember i only found this video today i see from the writing that you did do thisone some years ago before covid so thinks are different now ok? Great. I like your jeans pant i have one like it. I don't have your jersey so i will have to find one. The Mercedes E Class is great I have been in them before but the newest one i have note been init becuase who has one? If you look beyond my face you will see that i am note a politic or a friend who is politicial so without tenders we cannote afford it ok we do have m5 e63 porsceh mustank s600 and so on bud we donote has the e43 amongst us. So no i have note been init. Look R1.2m is alot for a car what would you buy? Do you see the question i am asking? Itis note a question designed to trick you bud rather to ask what would you buy? I have had a few cars second to topof the range lets see e46330i e90335i s4 supercharger A8 audi and so on all nice and well bfalanced and note shell like the topoff the range cars bud ican tell you for the money now i see what ihave done. Thangs for reading and i will see you in my next video.
Looks like a cheap, shitty low-spec merc. Mercedes Benz is rubbish. Their previous generation of cars looked quite good. Now though, they all look like utter shit. A c63 looks like a C 180, and a C 180, looks like a C 63 S. Fucking pathetic.
This E43 has everything designed, built and calibrated by AMG... except the V8. But is that a problem? Compared with cars of other brands in the same segment certainly one of the best ...and "the sweet spot!".That is why this review is SO GOOD!
brother no, its not an amg project nor an amg engine, yes its tuned by amg but thats nothing special, but yes regardless, best of this segment and amazing review, but id personally rather have an s7, those things are NASTY and OH MY that bentley v8 with a flashtune has far more potential and character!
I can't believe this channel only has 93k subscibers! I'm based in the UK and I rate this channel as one of the best including some US channels!
True. I think it's almost in the same category as Car Wow and some US channels. Lovely content
I've seen a 6 second cat vid reach 50million views in 6 months

"You buy an AMG because you like hot sauce on your chicken wings..." Classic
This is exactly why I liked this review. This guy knows what he’s talking about
no matter which car this guy reviews, i like it
😂😂😂😂 "middle management in the mafia"..... "being involved in organised crime can be stressful".... This then is my type of car 😇😇😇
Blessing Mkhatshwa words 😁👍🏻
I agree😊
It might be sounding stupid but your reviews and the drives "exploring south africa" video make me want to visit ZA. Thumbs up for this quality und greets from bavaria!!
+Daniel Clarkson Great to hear! You must come visit then...
Epic camera work!

Awesome. Enjoy that beast!
Mind me asking looking at this car here in NA, California. Are you leasing it? And how much a month are you dropping on this bad boy?
I leased a 2018 model and I agree. I really can't drop the money that you need for an E63s. That's an amazing car but is over 1.5 times the price of the E43. So, really a different class of vehicle.

I agree brother I have the e43 and 401 hp is enough

Mercedes has nailed it.....man they leaving the competition far behind
Good to see someone call out the plastic seats, that's what "man made leather" is.

"Middle management in the Mafia..." Classic. Great review though !

"Its kind of like finding out your librarian goes to trance parties..." Hahahaha. That description alone makes me want to buy it.
7:05 "Shift you idiot, shift!"

Mercedes Benz is setting the Standards
Ciro and cars. co za you did a great review on the mercedes benz e63 amg
Awesome review, but I wonder why AMG innovate a new segment "E43" beside the famous name "E63"??!
E43 = V6
E63 = V8
E43 = V6
E63 = V8
Ciro and cars. co za please do a review on the ford focus 1.5 ecoboost styling package hatchback
This guy is good
I must join the ANC mafia 😂😂😂
Great car .... due in india in 2018
Less music more exhaust note
NIce car hmmmm - love the sound of that car
Lmao! "You buy an AMG because you want hot sauce on your chicken wings"
R1.1 million! That's what a Golf 8 R costs today.
i do love hot-sauce on my wings
lol lekker review! Agreed with I dont care wtf this car costs.. well done
So if i bought this car id have to stop everytime to change driving modes?...Or You Ciro cant do that on the go?...
Hi Lokanje, Ciro was just being a bit dramatic. You can switch modes on the go, no problem.
Are the C- Class assembled in South Africa...??
All that rattles and squeeks.. A sign of questionable build quality of SA assembled Mercs??
This E-Class looks great.
A very expensive replacement for the E550 V8
I dont find mercedes infotainment system hard to use at all. Its pretty easy actually.. Subjective comment.
love you shows...
You buy AMG because you like hot sauce on your chicken wings hahaha.. Nice video. I like this car. Sounds way better than the BMW 540i. Even looks better
This guy keeps getting on the barrier line, ehbana...
This this of AMG downsizing is not alright.
Human skin! The next wave of car interiors! 😂

PS gotta move the steering wheel, to the other side
Pontiac GrandPrix73 realize you couldn't say "right" side.
THUMBS UP.....
And...... it also has a PRICE 😂😂🤣🤣
If you like this car you dont understand amg it needs to be the best , the most powerful the most brutal not an in between car
This car does not cost over a million 😂
It does
Why do these guys reviewing 100 grand cars dress like homeless persons.
Maybe the car isn't meant to be used by stupid people
Looks like a cheap, shitty low-spec merc. Mercedes Benz is rubbish. Their previous generation of cars looked quite good. Now though, they all look like utter shit. A c63 looks like a C 180, and a C 180, looks like a C 63 S. Fucking pathetic.
It's still not a "real" amg car
ITS NOT A REAL AMG
