- In this video, I go over the market for Mercedes-AMG models in 2023. These AMGs range from collectors items like the CLK DTM to more humble cars like the C63 W204. I review the 5 main trends for 2023 compared to that in 2022 and 2021.

im kinda mad that i wasnt able to afford older AMG's, such as C36 and C43 AMG, and W210 E50 and E55 AMG when they were way more affordable 2 years ago
Market will crash in 2 years anyway
I actually have a 05 E55 and man it is really a fun car I’m so glad that have now great car 😎
Pisses me off that somehow w210 e55s actually cost more in most cases than their w211 counterpart
I've got a W210 E55. Bought it 4 years ago and still love to drive it. It's a shame AMG is downsizing their engines. Makes the older models even more special.
I'm selling my w211 E55 😢
I'm glad I got my 507 c63 back in 2017. I dont think I will ever let that car go
I am happy for you bro! It is one of the best modern cars ever made!
Wait until the intake manifold goes bad.
I own a 2013 w218 CLS 63. Mine is the last RWD edition before the went AWD in 2014 and I love the car! Yes the awd might be quicker 0-60 but having a RWD amg is the way to go for me personally
Agree, I like the facelift cls better but the first w218 rwd is the way to go.
@@vedocapp 100%
With the direction of late generation AMG currently the OLDER will be sought after much more than 2023+ going forward. A 2.0 liter tiny 4 cylinder C63 🤮🤮🤮 ridiculous
Exactly this. I don't care if it's faster or has better technology. A 4-cylinder turbo engine or an EV will always feel cheap to me.
thats why MB is bring back the V8 for C63 next year or so, So its a good idea to lease the current V4 C63, than buy the New C63 V8 when they come out. Lease and drive the V4 c63 for some fun and buy next gen C63 in couple of years, thats the best move.
@@abcxyz6606 mb is not bringing back v8 for c63.. its already confirmed.
no way they could do that now@@abcxyz6606
There seems to only be purple haired greta thunbergs running Mercedes to its grave at the moment.
I love the w204 63, BK CLK63, the bs sl65 and 212 63 are my all time fav
my eyes are watered
Yall should look for v12 G63, CL63 and S63 asap
Thank you for your amazing and informative content. Hope to see my 2002 CLK55 AMG continue to appreciate!
Great analysis. Always love your choice of background music too 👌🏾
Thanks for making your video.
Excellent analysis !!
The w204 and possibly the w205 c63’s will be hard to find in good shape very soon.
Bought my 2004 cl65 back in 2012 never seen another one in all these years. So extremely rare here in the uk. An absolute powerhouse. Love driving it but only comes out in summer.
That’s a legend, my only fear on the CLs is the ABC else I would likely have one now instead of an e450.
Im from Germany and i searching for one of those Legends, i also saw only one i all the years. I think for what the car is its still preaty affordable especial because they are on a downwards trend
Thank you very interesting
Picked up my facelift w205 c63s with 18k miles about 5 months ago and been loving every second of it. Definitely plan on keeping this one for a while
Looking to score an S55 to join my w201 and w211 CDI. Great examples of each C,E and S classes
I own a 2001 W208 CLK 55 AMG and I feel this particular amg just doesn’t get as much talk or love compared to it’s brother at the time the E55 AMG, that and I just feel it’s a very forgotten amg even though it has a lot to offer during it’s time.
The prices in the US are crazy 💀
As far was regular MB cars. There are some that went up in value like certain r129 models and the w126 for example. With good miles and good history.
That Blue-Black 500E is so clean! What a feast to the eyes!
It is funny, to see the different markets, around the world. In Germany for example ,the prices for a cls 63 w218 pre facelift, went up instead of down.
I just bought a 2008 S65 AMG 2 months ago 56k miles, I’m hoping it will hold it’s valve and maybe go up a little
Does anyone know what camera was used using to film the B-Roll? It looks good!
I am a proud owner of an SLK 55 AMG 2015 and love it!
Hey man, just found your channel, Im going to look through previous videos, but what are your thoughts on E63 AMG's? 2014-2017 ish? Reliable?
The fact that BMW produced the S58 in 2019 to carry forward another generation of vehicles, while Mercedes’ is hard on for going EV goes to show that AMG itself is dead, unless you have $200,000+ to spend on a new SL63 , a 4 cylinder EV $90,000 C63 is not the market wants, & the whole brand itself has diluted itself in the past 2/3 years by completely disregarding their enthusiast customer clientele.
I think the New C63 will have a tough time winning over customers, especially compared to how good the M3 G80 is.
I love my R230 Sl63 AMG, never getting rid of it!
HAPPY CHRISTMAS
Interesting vid👍I bought my low mileage, 30000 km mint 2006 silver G55 AMG in 2019. Only driven 1000 km since then😄 have 10 other cars.
Have looked at an CL 600, but that ABC system turned me away
I’m hanging onto my W211 E55 not for appreciation but because I appreciate it.. they won’t make cars like this again.
What is "stabilyzed"? Lost value or stopped appreciating, but keeping the reached price?
If a W124 Hammer is over $750000 then a good w124 500E must be good value at $100000? Great video and information, many thanks
We dont talk about the c32?
Wish I got a C63 BS when it was between $60-80K in 2019/2020. Just found it hard to justify the cost compared to performance back then. Now with them practically doubled in price, absolutely not.
Is there an AMG model you would recommend for someone planning on daily driving one of these fantastic vehicles? I'd be looking at a ceiling of $40-$45k. It's a tall ask I know but I have dreams for what might end up being my last gasoline car.
What would you buy? A E50 amg or a E55 amg? Both w210. E50 is much more rare but E55 is more powerful and much more known.
E55
Catched up a perfect E55 AMG Wagon. I'm from Germany.
Einer der schönsten meiner Meinung nach
Thank you for this video!
Would you say $60K is a fair price for a '05 S65 AMG L (W220) with 40K miles in top condition? Remember, only 637 were produced for the entire world.
Further, what market would you say is the best market to sell it in? Japan? US? Where?
Another great video!
I own two S classes W221. A prefacelift S65AMG V12 BiTurbo and a facelift S63AMG V8 BiTurbo ( Designo ). I do wonder sometimes if this cars will ever be a collectible AMG?
I don’t plan on selling any of them now but it would be nice if they appreciate in value
Which one is better?
@@ZimbabweMbira If we are talking engine wise, the V12 is on a different level! People say the 5 speed gearbox lets the V12 down but I personally think it suits this car very well and once you are over 60mph, there’s not many cars that will be able to keep up with you. Looks wise, out of the two S classes I have, I prefer my S63 because it’s a facelift model and Designo. It’s a beautiful colour combination whereas the S65 is silver with black leather so it’s not the most exciting colour combination.
@@Sam_AMG I have a V221 S600 facelift with the 5 speed transmission. It is amazing. But have never owned a V8 63. I used to have a W221 S350 pre facelift with the 7 speed; it was also great. Thanks for your response.
@@ZimbabweMbira The S600 is an amazing car! My first S class was an S600 and I was so impressed with that car, I went and bought two other S classes 😂. That shows how highly I thought of the S600.
Im looking to buy a cls63 m113k 2006 but i don’t think it will pass emissions standards!
if taxes weren't astronomical here in Belgium for everything that has an engine bigger than 3.0 liters, i would definitely gotten myself a M113K. owned a M112K and it was a blast.
Have you seen danish taxes on cars? I could only afford my CLS 63 SB from 2013 because it was tax expemt since it had no rear seats
@@Captain_Coleslaw well, to register a M113k e55 in Belgium, it would cost 10500€. Is it more than that?
@@miseryparty3726 not worth the risk. Especially if you look foreign ;)
Just get the e55, g55 lichte vracht/utilitaire... No tax. That's what I did in belgium
@@FuZzhardware ja maar defeats the purpose een beetje.
I just wi sh W204 C63 P31s will fall in price so I can get my hands on one, but that does not seem to be the case.
You forgot to mention the SL63 AMG Black Edition.
You mean SL65 black series?
Sad you didn’t mention the SLR 😢
should've mentioned the c63 black series as to the 507.... The Black Series projects from Mercedes-AMG are limited, unique and very rare
How much do you think my 2003 E55 AMG will go for in few years time?
I'm not an expert but I think that the W211's are going up in price when they are very clean examples. 2 weeks ago I saw an E55 very clean car under 100000 Kam's going for 60 thousand euros.
@@basilos
Thanks a lot. I still have a pristine E55. I am not selling it. But it’s good to know.
Hi, I’m in the market for a C216. Would you buy the C216 550 all wheel drive or the 63?
Depends on your budget, but really think about running costs and general reliability. The more homework you do on the specific engine you’re lookin at etc the better you know what you’d get yourself into.
I do most of my engine work .
Do u have a better choice in mind?
I think the 63 will do good because it's an "real AMG" and so it will sell higher
I had a CL63 with the 6.2L ... by all means if i could turn back the time i would get the 550 Biturbo and call it a day. The running cost was INSANE, like 5x higher than on a C63. The consumption was good 16L / 100km when driving normal. The sound was non existent compared to a C63 because the mufflers are a lot more quieter on a CL + its a lot better insulated, i could barely hear that V8 sound even with a Decat and Mufflers deleted. Compared to a stock C63 it was two times quieter with a muffler delete and backbox delete :D
The Front brake rotors are 1500$ (without pads, theres also no replacement parts that isn't amg directly afaik, so that 1500$ is almost guaranteed), pads another like 400$. We are still talking just about the front not even the back. The Suspension will constantly fail except if you don't get all dampers rebuild or put new ones in, you repair one, another one fails. The tandem pump is also failing when not replaced. The Park Distance sensors fail constantly (200$ each, the car has 12) the AMP fails also pretty often on theese, which is another 1200$. The ABS/ESP system has also failed on me and god damn ... car was standing for 4 months because i would have to wait so long to get those parts because they were special amg parts, and it cost me 3000$.... So even just getting parts for a CL is 10x harder than for a C63.
So yeah get a CL 550 with a AMG Package or put a CL63 Bodykit on it, you have the more modern car, the cheaper to run car and honestly 408 Biturbo HP are not that worse than 525 N/A hp. Especially after a remap.
Today's phrase is: "Eye watering"
i have a e55 wagon from japan, will it be more worth?
They're appreciating - is it Left Hand Drive?
@@BuiltToRace_com yes !
I have the same one, also from JPN, LHD and I hope that this glorious engine will keep up the worth
As a back-up I bought C63 (W204) also 🙂
@@scheberoff2992 You have excellent taste in cars.
I think the 2012+ face lifted C63 507s would be a sweet car to find…
507s were introduced in 2014 and 2015, 2012 only had the “regular” C63 and the Black Series
@@ExplorerMedia , ok. I said 2012, because that is when the c63 received a face lift and drastically enhanced interior styling, from that year on, I’d prefer, 507 or not. …but,…, I would like a 507.
The best value is the SLS AMG coupe. It has 90% of the Black series power and 10 ft-lb more torque for less than half what the Black series are selling for.
G63 wasn't mentioned here. I'm currently debating myself between a used G63/G550 and an E63 wagon. Both are fun cars with strong personalities. Please help me.
E63 Wagon for sure.
i bought a clean 2007 CLS63 with 142k km for $13500 in May in Quebec
I would luuuuuv 2 buy it from you 😊
sold it for 17500 :)@@LaszloLendl
The cls63 of that gen goes for almost half the c. Doesnt drive as nice or sound as good as
I believe mbz made too many of the “special” 211 and 212 amg cars. It’s gonna be a long while till they are worth much. Most of the ones I have seen are thoroughly thrashed and have lived hard lives.
I’ll likely be buying a 2018 AMG wagon in 2024.
Excellent review of the AMG market. As Mercedes moves to electrification the past AMG's of glory elevate in status and value. They've dipped now but haven't capitulated gains of the past 5 years. A lot of AMG's just can't be produced by Mercedes anymore so the upward trend is established. It's a good time to buy this winter.
As the global fleet goes electric, the best V12's will do well ... 7:19
Aren't the ones that are depreciating simply new cars.
how are w124s going for more than w126's haha! 800k WTF
A C63 with a 4-banger, say it isn’t so 😢
Expect for prices to jump in next 10 years because of EU forcing EVs on people
Dont Knock EV Cars till you try it. I've seen Chinese EV Cars and their Gorgeous Styling, Insane Performance and futuristic Tech is a Dream.
Some people are afrid of change, just like going from reading hard paper text books to reading online, going digital, but once you see the benifits, then it'll be easy to ditch to old outdated tools.
100 yrs ago, some would say Horses are better than car, some are reluctant to change, feel Gas power roar is fun, but once people try EV, they'll prefer the moderness of it over old gas cars.
That's cool and all but what does it matter if you're stuck at a charging point for the next hour. Hybrid is the future, petrol for 99% and electric for nudging along in traffic@@abcxyz6606
I think the 2009-2011 facelift w219 cls63 amg models are very underrated.
I just picked up a 2010 edition 1 with the p30 package! 😎
w219 chassis is in the top 5 for best looking models from mercedes benz 💪🏻
Yup.. w219 is ICONIC. That was the originator for what you see on the road often even with new cars.
Hi line market is crashing
Imo hammer 1 over rated. 880k wtf
Value for money ,lol, benz, aint it ,i got a c63 507, and a stupid headlight issue cost me 4k
All these used luxury cars are STILL Crazy OVER PRICED. All the Maintaince and Repair could add up to, if not more, than cost of Band New. So at that point, its better off to save my money to buy a Brand New Luxury sports car, with full warranty, peak performance, no risk of total breakdown, total lost of car, no stress, anxiety, waste of time and trouble on breakdown or repairs.
Plus brand new car you wont have to smell farty seat of previous owners and boogers stained steering wheel.
Thats why these Luxuray sports cars face depreciations, as it should, car engine and part have a life, more its driven, it will eventually break and become useless. So whats the point when wasting so much money on cars that wont even work or cost more to repair than its worth or when it brand new.
Used Cars all need to have a MAJOR CORRECTION. Theres some Insane stupid demand prices on these used cars.
None of these cars are worth anything remotely close to what these collectors are shelling out for them.
Why would you think that? Clearly, anything isworth what someone will pay. Ultimately, classic AMG Mercedes, have incredible investment opportunity? So arguably undervalued
@@bernardwarr4187 Collectors, usually will fork out a stupid amount of money for cars, art etc. Regardless if it is actually worth anything simply because they can. There is no valid reasoning behind it. Most of these cars with the exception of the GTR are just like any other MB - Euro car. Old scrap metal lol. Maybe I'm slightly biased since my Euro car "phase" has passed with me aging. I've long strayed away from owning any German - Euro vehicle.
as i have been a mb tech for 29 years now, I agree with you. many of these cars have bad engines and other problems. the m113k was the last great engine
@@narcissistinjurygiver2932 I find it very difficult to believe, any Mercedes Tec, even with one years experience would wright such a stupid comment?
@@bernardwarr4187 not a stupid comment.
Two demographic ruined AMG Mercedes, I think we all know who that is....
Explain that
What is "stabilyzed"? Lost value or stopped appreciating, but keeping the reached price?
i think it means that the car isn't appreciating or depreciating
