M340i is definitely a better drivers car (most car guys will enjoy it more) but for a daily C43 no doubt. Either way you cant go wrong to be honest, both beautiful cars
I got my black one on November, also 23’ coupe. Satin ppfed on the first day and swapped the Multispoke rims w Vossen hf-5. This is a sexy baby for real. Imo, I think M340i is more like a driver’s car, faster than c43 but it sounds not as good stock. Only issue with the c43 is the drive is super stiff and interior rattles are crazy.
Performance exhaust sounds great, loved my C43 until it blew up. Amazing car for daily driving as well. Unfortunately I had to switch to the dark side, but I am glad to say both are underrated cars. At the end of the day the M276 in the C43 has been out since 2012, the B58's are newer. Goes to show you how impressive this engine has been throughout all these years. PS, to all future C43 owners reading this go with the facelift's, don't make the mistake of going pre-facelift you'll end up regretting it. Awesome video btw man.
People don't realize AMG was always about taking a regular engine and modifying it with parts and tunes to make it better which is what they did here. The hand built thing came later on and was reserved for the higher end engines. It's still miles a part from a regular C300.
Crazy thing is that used, I found a better deal on a white C43 coupe than I could ever a M340I, I've driven both and the M340I is faster, but the comfort and quality of life improvement the C43 has over the m340I makes up for it in my opinion, and like you said the C43 does look better, Wayy better lol.
Def a better sounding car and imo looks better as a bmw fan, but that's just about all u get from it compared to the m340i. Speed, cornering, technology (compared to the w205 gen), eliability and potential goes to the beemer
@@shaheerC43 since when does the 2023 come with the v6? Mercedes started putting the I4 version in late 2022, either the dealer straight up lied to your face or u dont know what year your car is
@@shaheerC43 There's no way this is 2023. The interior and the exterior is updated. Not to mention, 2023 has a 4 cylinder engine. Also, your steering wheel looks like a modified version of the W205 version.
this may not have a handmade engine but its definitely more amg than the new c43 and c63
this older amg sounds great and is also superfast
Facts
Technically less AMG than the new one, as the new one has a real AMG engine from the a45, but sure sounds a lot better

I think both are really excellent. In the end, it's a matter of taste.

Couldn't agree more!
idk bro, c43 and m340i are pretty close in terms of performance
@@QUIKCaspathat’s not what he said
No it's not
Beautiful spec. Pretty similar to mine. Any notices with creaks and rattles in your car though? Mine has a ton
I notice the creaks when going down certain steep hills in my area which is annoying for a car at this price range. But the overall experience is 👌👌
Not really tbh, i really get some sounds because i always got stuff in the trunk and glove compartment
I pinpointed one ac vent that creaks/rattles occasionally when on a more bumpy road so gonna take it to the dealership and see if they can’t fix it 👍

Facts and congrats on the Supra
What’s wrong with the pre-facelift?
Im assuming its because his went bang @Unknown-rc6xt
How did it blow up? Lol
@@inamsaj I think because it has smaller turbos than the facelift
For me the 43 is better for when you drive a bit more spiritually at higher rpm, 63 is more for low rpm cruising to enjoy that deep V8 sound

how much did you buy it for?
I love my '23 Coupe also! Best combo of power, handling, comfort, and looks. Glad I got the last of the V6 Biturbos. Well sorted out. Enjoy, bro!
Couldn't agree more!
im considering a c43 coupe for my next daily, i got a sti right now, im gonna check out a m440i but exhaust and driving wise ik the c43 is the best
I am going to buy a slightly used one next week except mine has the full Alcantara interior. Can't wait. Love only Coupes. Thanks.

What year is it?
Is that speedometer aftermarket ?
No
Performance is neck and neck between both cars. I do think c43 has a better stock exhaust.
How do you have the mode buttons on the steering wheel
its an option
How are you getting sub 4 seconds 0-60 stock? my best was 4.3
hold break boost until like 2.5 rpm and release
What are you recording this on?
Iphone 12 with head strap
Very beautiful. I love this car!!
Thanks bro!
is that a stock c43?
Yup

This car is so much fun.
Drove both, m340 better in every aspect except for looks
Bmw will always be better for the simple fact that they’re made for the sport style.. mercedes is more comfortable, and audi is balanced
I love my c43
what year is the C43? 2018?
2023

The coupe and cabriolet retained the V6, the sedan became a completely different car essentially
@@blazesmooth5573 the 23’ is the last year of the w205 c43 coupe with amg tuned v6.

Mercedes does sound better stock tho
C43 looks way better
M340i is faster stock vs stock
sedan is better than the coupe
sedan for men coupe for ladies
C43 is just way sexy!
u keep posting the same vids bro cmon
My bad I was sick
M440i not M340i
🦇🦇🦇
not gonna lie the mercedes interior just bland and looks cheap compared the 340i which is why I would buy the 340 instead
not at all wtf
@@The_Shape20 outside of the center console being carbon all the buttons and screen look cheap for how much u r paying
aint no way u just said it
@@dezbryant1231 the materials are good in the older c class and second design wise its way more beautiful than bmws interior
nah but the bmw feels a lot cheaper irl the benz feels a lot nicer
Bmw boring to drive.
BMW M340i much quicker!
