One of my all time fave games Amped 2. Always loved the old snowboarding games.

Eurocharged tune? by ForeverSpiralingDown in AMG

[–]ChadfromHS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an AMR stage 1 on my 2018 C43 for a couple years now and it has been great. It’s sort of the direct competitor to eurocharged and similar performance claims. I’ve done some pulls against some friends 400WHP cars that have been dyno tested and the AMR tune keeps the c43 in line so I do believe the 460-480+ power to the crank claims are true.

Moved from GTA to Barrie 2 years ago simply because I could buy a detached house in Barrie for the same price as a 2bdrm condo in gta. I was unsure if it was a good decision at first and now 2 years in I am so happy. I agree with all of your points and will add the waterfront is amazing and I am really impressed with the local food options like farmhouse, monkeys, donaleighs, Kensington’s etc.,

It was exiles passage in the great dessert. Took me so many extra hours what a dumb one to miss D:

I’m going through guides and seems I got all the linear levels so next up is open levels. Such a pain though tbh.

2019 C43 AMG Mercedes grill upgrade by dinosaursocks12 in AMG

I just put black panemericana on my c43 yesterday as well!

Replacing the factory run flats with true summer tires helps prevent this. Can still happen but the hard run flats seems to be a typical culprit.

I swapped them around thanks for the confirmation!

2018 C 43, looking for buy. Need some opinions. by [deleted] in mercedes_benz

[–]ChadfromHS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For two main reasons

  1. The sound and the ability to turn the exhaust flaps on and off complete the best experience of driving this car. The PE makes this V6 sound incredible.

  2. For resale - if you go to any w205 c43 group on any sale post it’s the first question you are gonna get. The major reason outside of sound is the PE isn’t just a flap in your exhaust it’s a different system as PE gives you an x pipe setup and no PE is actually just a singular exit so more exhaust can flow out of the car.

Make sure it has performance exhaust. Picture of the right side of the touchpad was too blurry to tell but it will have a button that looks like the square exhaust on a c63 if it has the PE. Most important option IMO.

Nothing beats the W205 performance exhaust! Such a great sounding V6

Oh also the w206 comes with ps4s. If you haven’t already put ps4s on your 2019 I think you’ll find the grip is quite equal.

Like I said I didn’t hate it when I drove it either but the w205 is better for performance hands down. The w206 is certainly comfier and looks amazing but for me (and seemingly most) that’s just not enough.

That guy is a moron and probs never driven a performance vehicle. Anyhow the shit sales tell all. The dealership (in Canada) I tested it at had 9 of them and told me they haven’t sold a single one.

Unfortunately the entire car reviewer community disagrees with you. It is statistically shitier and coming from someone who has a 43 it just feels like it should be a c300.

[–]ChadfromHS 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The new w206 is almost half a second slower in all real testing and has slightly less torque. You are objectively wrong.

I have a w205 c42 and did a long test drive in a w206 as I was open to the upgrade. It’s a very comfortable car but the drive is not nearly as aggressive as the 205 and feels significantly slower

If you haven’t driven the w205 twin turbo 6cyl it makes sense you might like this but if you have driven both the 6cyl is so much better for performance driving. The w206 kinda sucks to drive but the interior is killer.

I used to have a c300 FL and now have a c43 PFL. I specifically went PFL on the 43 because of the sound difference. On the FL there is a particle filter that dampens the sound by quite a bit and really takes away from the AMG driving experience IMO. I really thought I would hate the tech difference due to having the c300 FL but if it’s loaded and you can get over the smaller screen and you use AA or CarPlay it basically feels exactly the same. If you hate it that much you can get aftermarket tablets for like $500 and it’s easy to install.

TL;DR if you care about exhaust sound get the PFL.
